How to Make a Lollipop Washcloth Centerpiece for a Baby Shower
A lollipop washcloth is a common gift at baby showers. It's a washcloth rolled up in a spiral and put on the end of a stick. A simple concept, perhaps, but you may wonder just how to make your own in a way that doesn't look tacky. Washcloth lollipops can serve as a gift for a new mother or as party favors for other guests. Either way, creating your own will save you time and money you'd have to spend ordering them from a shop.
