How to Make Adorable Bow Towels for Christmas Cabinet Knob Covers
The holidays are all about adding those special, festive touches to every corner of your home.
This year, I discovered a fun and easy way to dress up kitchen cabinets with bow towels—and let me tell you, I’m officially obsessed!
These little decorations take just a few minutes to create, and they add a cozy, Christmas feel to your kitchen.
Plus, it’s a great way to use those festive dish towels you’ve been saving.
Let’s get started!

1. Fold the First Towel
Take your first dish towel and fold it into thirds lengthwise. This creates a long, flat strip that's easy to work with.
Once folded, fold it again in half widthwise to make a smaller rectangle.
2. Prep the Second Towel
Now grab your second towel. Fold it in half lengthwise, then fold it again to make it skinny—kind of like a ribbon.
3. Create the Bow Shape
Go back to your first towel. Cinch it right in the middle to create that classic bow shape.
4. Add the Ribbon
Take the second towel (the skinny one) and drape it over the center of the bow you just made. Let the ends hang evenly on each side to form the “tails” of your dish towel bow.
5. Attach to Cabinet Knobs
Now comes the fun part! Take your bow and thread the “tails” through your cabinet knob or handle.
Adjust and fluff the bow until it looks just right. Don’t worry if it takes a few tries—it’s all part of the process!

I tried it......I tried to fold the ends into the towel, but it really wouldn't stay, but that's ok I like the way it looks as is. Thanks for the fun idea!
