I'm throwing the towel in ...

Challenge #79 - Cookie Monster cupcake with the added challenge of Off the Page Hi everyone,and it's my turn to show you my cookie monster cupcake inspired creation. I've done a towel cupcake - these are just perfect for place settings for birthday parties, morning teas, wedding showers, baby showers and are quick and easy to make. What you need ... face washers in whatever colour you wish corrugated cardboard TIP - if you don't have any you can use plain cardstock, thicker patterned paper or normal cake patties elastic bands ribbon Take your washer and roll it one diagonal to the other.

Make sure the rolled flap is facing you and then roll end to end

It will look like this ... secure with elastic band around roll.


Cut cardboard between 1 to 1 1/2 inches wide depending on how "fat" your towel roll has ended up.Roll this around roll to required size and secure with tape.Use your ribbon to wind around base for decoration. TIP - You can tie this into a fancy bow, add bling, flowers or whatever you want. You could also add a small name tag if you wished. Add in something to the top - I've used a small flower.It should just push down into the centre of the towel. TIP -Make this appropriate for the occasion - use flowers, flags, lollipops etc

and voila !! TIP - You can use other things besides face washers, just adjust according to the size.These work well with hand towels and tea towels. Hope to see your off the page creation in our gallery. Guest DT spots are able to be won each fortnight
