This charm is great for Summertime... I'm thinking zipper pull on a beach bag or vacation travel bag. Let me know what you would use it for.

These teddy bear folded towels are a cute way to give towels in a gift basket for bridal, household, or baby showers. They're also a great display in your guest bathroom, while still being usable by guests. I think this would also be a cute way to give baby blankets. It takes practically no time, yet really makes for a special presentation. Your guests/gift recipients will appreciate that you took the time to add a special touch. They will LOVE them!

Watch my YouTube tutorial to see just how quick and simple they really are:



........................................................................................ I linked within the video as many as I could find of the products I used. For those I couldn't find the exact match, I linked a closely similar version. Actually, you could do the whole thing very inexpensively from the dollar store. I actually find that the thinner towels from the dollar store create a better fold and also have more of a "fuzzy" teddy bear look (like the brown one in my first example). You may want to give thicker, higher quality towels in a gift basket, but I definitely recommend the thinner ones for your guest bathroom. Just use what ribbons you have on hand, or that matches your intended theme or color scheme, and have fun! ........................................................................................ *May contain affiliate links.

Life Update 2025

 


I've been gone from YouTube for quite some time (over a year). Watch my YouTube video here to catch up on everything that has been going on in my world. Thank you all for sticking around while life happened. I'm excited to be back to crafting and I have NO plans to go back to work outside of the home again. I'm content with crafting, homemaking, homesteading, cooking, destressing/tending to my health, and slowing down to enjoy life. I will again be posting regular videos on both my Craftie YouTube Channel as well as my Healthie YouTube channel. I hope you'll follow along as I bring you new Craftie crafts (including old faves AND my newest obsession: quilting/sewing) as well as Healthie recipes, tips, and homesteading adventures.
