French Tea Towel Sharpie


Tea towels can be decorated in a matter of minutes. 
Use a sharpie! Sharpie permanent marker.
I also used a French Script rubber stamp and StazOn ink pad. 
I used the same rubber stamp for the cute drawer.
Here is the post on how I did the French drawer.
*The French rubber stamp you can find
 on my sidebar.

The idea comes from Heather Setting For Four.
Thanks Heather!
Happy Crafting!

What a great idea Dee! I would have never thought to stamp on a tea towel. That is a perfect way to custom a towel.

I thought there was no time like the present - I would be afraid to use a sharpie on my towels!

And hey - I guess I had never gone to your Google first - but you are gorgeous!

Love, sandie

Okay, this is a first for me, I've heard of using a sharpie for the wall, but never cloth. Thanks for sharing!

This towel is lovely. What ink did you use to make it safe for the washing machine? ...............................................I was strolling through some of your posts that I had missed lately and all of a sudden my heart leaped from my chest. I'm happy to hear that you are not the one holding that snake. Oh, I know in my brain that there are good snakes . . . but that knowledge does not kick into play when I see one. Scary!!! Have a great weekend, Connie :)
