Pinterest Thursday: Burp Cloths

A coworker of Handy Andy's recently had a baby and they had a shower to which Handy Andy said "I'll just buy them some diapers for a gift." Um, no. What a perfect opportunity to explore Pinterest and get some ideas for a baby shower gift!

I found this tutorial for handmade burp cloths:


This project looked quick and easy, so I went to the dollar store and got a few white hand towels. I followed the tutorial using the towels and some green fabric I already had. I only used one towel for two burp clothes, so this project only cost me $1!

 

The lines aren't perfect, but these are really cute and they were so easy! I added them to a basket of other goodies in pink and green. Here's what I ended up with:


Happy Pinning and crafting!

    Cute! That is a nice handmade touch for a great gift basket. And let me tell you how nice getting baskets is. Because you fill them. With LOTS of little things you don't otherwise know what to do with!

    Thanks for linking up with me!!
