What can be made from old towels
- Eco-friendly grocery bags. Why not turn unnecessary things into useful ones? You just need to cut out the desired shape for the bag from an old towel, sew the edges and sew on handles. Such a bag will replace a bunch of bags and will serve you for years.
- Reusable napkins that can be used in the kitchen, bathroom, or just for any need. To do this, you just need to cut the towel into squares, hem the edges - and you will have a lot of napkins for all occasions.
- Bathroom or toilet mat. Sew a few towels together and you'll get a colorful, stylish rug that will serve you for years to come.
- Cosmetic bag. An unnecessary towel can be turned into a new cosmetic bag. To do this, cut a square of the right size, sew the edges and sew a zipper. In such a cosmetic bag, you can put cosmetics or medicines that are stored without packaging.
- An organizer for the kitchen or bathroom. Cut out pockets in the shape of squares or rectangles from a towel and sew them to another towel. Such an organizer is suitable for storing kitchen items or personal care products in the bathroom.
- House slippers. You can kill two birds with one stone here. If you have unnecessary slippers at home, you can cover them with a terry cloth. And you will get cozy stylish home shoes in which you can show off to your guests.
- A shower sponge. To do this, you need to take a terry towel and any thick fabric from which to make a lining. Cover the lining with a terry cloth from the towel, sew a handle on top - and your new washcloth is ready.
- Mop head. If you have a mop with nozzles, you don't have to spend money on additional ones. They can be easily sewn from an old towel. To do this, measure the mop and cut out a large rectangle according to the measurements, sew buttons on one side, and make holes for them on the other. To replace the old nozzle with a new one, simply fasten the rectangle to the mop. The main thing is that the homemade nozzle matches its size.
