We’ve been in this house for over two years now. It’s seen us through a wedding, different colour walls and a lot of sleepovers on our sofa.  We’ve put a lot of effort into making it the perfect little nook, however everyday I stare at the drawers in our kitchen and feel sad to look at the state of our current tea towels. Beyond stained and tatty, I long for the lovely tea towels at TkMaxx but had to restrain myself, because I had already bought the materials to make my own. I love the idea of printing my own fabrics but have put this project off for so long as I was scared of how it would turn out, it did take one trial that in the bin to get it right, and I absolutely love them. Now that I got the hang of this technique here’s what you’ll need for your watercolour tea towels. Materials: Masking tape White tea towels, washed and ironed Green, Red, Orange, Yellow and white fabric paint Medium sized brush Disposable cups Absorbent kitchen towels Cardboard How to: 1. Cover your table with carboard, then line that with the kitchen towels and secure them
