Color Coded Towel Tags

Your family and guests won't confuse their white towels if you color code them with hanging loops. Suspended from pegs, the towels will dry quickly and stay neat.

Materials Needed:

Colorfast cotton twill ribbon 1 inch wide in several colors, each cut into 8 inch strips.
White towels/needle and thread

Towel Tags:

Fold a ribbon strip in half so the cut ends align,making a loop. Fold cut end under 3/8 inch

At midpoint of one long side of a towel,sew ribbon strip to towel twice,with folded under edges facing inward;Stitch once about a 1/4 inch in from towel's edge and again,about 1/8 inch in from that.

Repeat on additional towels, varying ribbon colors.

Shaker pegs are functional and stylish, but they can be a hassle to install . To make the job easier;look for ones that screw in , the deep threads anchor pegs securely with minimal effort.
