Dollar Store crafting friend Xine made this adorable clothesline dish towel inspired by an Anthropologie towel she admired. Such a cute motif, and Xine tells us exactly how to make it at her blog, Jane Avion. You can use a dollar store flour sack towel and your fabric and ribbon scraps to whip one (or several) of these up. This would be a very fun bridal shower gift (or if you can get it done this morning before you go over to Mom’s for lunch, a Mother’s Day gift). [click here to find the tutorial]

Project Estimate:

• Flour sack towel, $1
• Fabric scraps, on hand
