Instructions

    • 1

      Fold dish towel back and forth in an accordion style fold. Fold in half.

    • 2
      Form your angel's head.

      Fold dish rag accordion style. Lay it over the fold in the dish towel so that it falls evenly on both sides. Measure down approximately 2 inches and place twister around cloth to form angel's head. Add the wooden spoon (if desired) to give your angel a face. You could place a picture cut out for the face if you wanted.

      Our angel's back

      Take your pot holder and twist it together in the center securing it with a twister which you will attach to the twister on the angel's back. You now have angel wings.

      For decoration you can add some ribbon, a bow, or some raffia around the angel's neck to conceal the twister.

Tips & Warnings

  • Choose your ensemble to either match the recipient's kitchen or the season.

  • Give it as a gift or use it to decorate a gift.

  • You may have to add a disclaimer that dish washing services do not come with the equipment, unless you want to be extra generous.
