Hi, I am Georgina Cook! I blog because I relish in "sharing what I love". While there are so many things in life that I love (Cath Kidston, Galaxy chocolate, my husband's eyes, eBay, plucking my eyebrows (i just do...) , and Christmas morning), this blog will focus on my greater passions: crafting, going cool places with my hubby, shopping, decorating and every day life lessons.

Towel Robe!

Ooooh I love this! It's going to be sooo useful :D  It's so pretty!! Best get this tut done quick so that I can hurry up and have a shower and use it ha!



You will need:
Glue gun!
Towel that fits around you
Fabric scraps
Needle & Thread
Scissors
Elastic
Big Button
Pins


1. First you will need to take the long side of the top of your towel, fold it over by an inch and pin it!


2. Take your elastic and wrap it around your chest. Cut it at the point where the two ends meet. Thread your elastic through the casing at the top of your towel that you just made with a large safety pin like the above.


3. Sew the elastic at both ends of the towel. Now, take your towel and wrap it around you. Find where the end of the towel meets your right side and make a  mark on the inside of the top layer.



4. Sew your big button where you want the towel to be held. Cut a button hole on the other side so that when the towel is on it holds perfectly.


5. Sew along the casing taking the pins out as you go. Your robe is now done... I added some flowers for decor. I just got long strips of white fabric, twirled them, started rolling them and put a dab of glue from the gun as I went along.
See you! Off for my shower!

  2. Oh yes! I didn't even think of that! You could add little straps as well if you have got lively one's to make it a bit more of a dress!
