Another Stenciled Tea Towel
Today is a double post day! I still have my 12 Days of Handmade Christmas Ornaments series going on, but I also wanted to participate in the post with The Silhouette Challenge Group that I belong to. Both posts are Silhouette related, so be sure to check out my other one too. I also have ANOTHER GIVEAWAY for you today! Continue to the bottom of this post to see what it is. You don’t want to miss this one!
Anyway, in the midst of all of this ornament madness, I’m also needing to come up with Christmas gift ideas for people. Evan’s teachers really liked the definition art tea towels that I made for them last year, so I decided to design another one.
This one is for someone with a nice sense of humor. It didn’t turn out as good as the one I did before. I think I was putting the paint on too thick, but it’s still cute. I’ve heard good things about freezer paper and stencil vinyl, so I might have to try those out next time to see if I get less paint leakage. Go here for the free cut file and check out my other tea towel for a full tutorial.
Wrap them up with some cookies and/or one of the cookie cutter ornaments that I made last week, and you’ve got a cute little gift!
And now get ready for some AMAZING Silhouette inspiration! The girls in The Silhouette Challenge Group have been hard at work to bring you 35 Silhouette creations! Go check out their projects and make sure to keep reading because you are almost to the GIVEAWAY!

Hahaha. A shirt would be awesome! Maybe an apron? lol
You already know what a HUGE fan I am of this creation. I’m putting this on my TO DO list for this year (if I have time) or if not, then definitely next year. My friend Brittany will die over it. And thanks again for all that you did behind the scenes to help make this Special December Challenge & Giveaway such a success!
Thanks Lauren. I know how the “if I have time” thing goes. So many crafts, so little time!
This is such a cute neighbor gift idea!! Definitely going to have to do this! And I LOVE using freezer paper to stencil everything!! You’ll love it too! Give it a try! š
Thanks Janice! I tried it once a long time ago, but never with my Silhouette. I just bought some so hopefully I can try it soon!
Hangry – LOL! I’m “hangry” a lot š This is really cute – great gift idea!
Me too! Haha! Thanks!
I love this! We call my hubby “hangry” all of the time! I want this tea-towel!
Haha. You should make him one for Christmas. š
Love both the cookie cutters and the use of the word “hangry.” Thanks for the great cut file! š
Thanks Emily and you’re welcome!
haha! I love it! These would make such a cute gift!
Thanks Tori!
These are very cute! I even like that they bled under a bit. I think it adds good character.
Oh, I’m glad you think so! I can just say that I meant to do that then. š
Such a great gift idea.
Thanks Brenna!
Well, I’m so glad I now know the name of my condition! lol What a great project! š
Hahaha! Glad I could help out Diana! š
It’s great and very funny too! Most of us can probably identify with being Hangry! The wrapped cutters are cute too – a perfect pairing.
Haha. Thanks Pam! I know I can!
Your tea towel is fabulous! Anyone would love to receive one of these.
Thanks so much Glenna!
I admired your first tea towel the moment I saw it and this one is no different! And to wrap it with your cookie cutters is such an adorable idea! Bravo! I will definitely be checking out your other posts to learn how to make it all. Love it!
