Very popular gifts for loved ones for a variety of holidays are bath accessories, including terry sheets and towels. You can, of course, just carefully roll up this textile and put it in a bag, or you can design it in a very original way and turn a boring package into something original.

Let's take a look different options packaging of towels so that you can always choose the right one for a specific holiday or for one of your loved ones.

Master classes on packing towels

The simplest option: carefully place the towels in an even stack, tie beautiful ribbon and decorate with holiday decor.

You can tie each folded towel with a cord, braid or rope - this option prevents the textile product from unfolding, which is important if you want to give a set of small towels or napkins as a gift.

To make the gift look stylish and harmonious, try to comply color scheme. You can choose matching or contrasting packaging - it all depends on your desire.

It is better to pack colored towels with a pattern in a plain box, but if you choose plain-dyed textiles, then you can choose brighter packaging.

Delicate pastel baby towels look very cute, complemented with embroidery or appliqués. The photo shows factory packaging, but using this idea, you can come up with something similar yourself.

This option is perfect for a man.

But this one - more delicate, complemented by beautiful decor - is for a woman.

Towels designed in the form of a bale with a handle look quite simple, but look funny. The handle is woven from regular yarn. On one side we attach a brush made of threads, on the other - a small bottle with a cosmetic product or aromatic oil... In the photo, the bottle is braided, but you can use, for example, a piece of mesh or simply tie the neck of the bottle tightly.

By the way, you can also attach a mesh washcloth to such a gift - it fits perfectly into the likeness of a flower. You can tuck a wooden comb or bath brush into the sling if the towel is large enough. But it is better to give such gifts exclusively to the closest family members, otherwise you may be misunderstood and inadvertently offended.

Roll the towel into a long thin roll and place it in a narrow cellophane or organza bag. All that remains is to tighten the top with ribbon and attach the decor. This option is very simple, compact and good if you need to cook a lot small gifts- for example, for a team on March 8 or February 23.

Additionally, you can attach a postcard-label on a long string to such a gift to emphasize the theme of the holiday.

The “Candy” option is almost the same, only we tie the packaging on both sides, simulating a candy wrapper. The length of the “candy” may vary.

In the photo you see transparent plastic boxes, but in a cellophane wrapper your soft “candy” will look even better, because you can use gift paper and mica with drawings.

The theme of confectionery in the decor of gifts made from towels can perhaps be called predominant. Love how cute the “lollipops” are rolled up from small towels or napkins in two colors.

You can decorate small napkins by wrapping them individually in tulle or mesh. This option is good for small gifts and prizes at a holiday. Textile items are rarely purchased for prizes because they are inconvenient and often not packaged. But if you arrange them in this way, then your Santa Claus at a corporate party may well take such “sweets” out of the bag.

And here are the “lollipops” - very festive!

Cute “rolls”, right? They are easy to make from small baby towels or terry napkins. A paper rosette, a decorative cherry - and the “treat” can be served.

Why not muffins? Cardboard rosette, soft “cupcake” with berries. The role of the berry is played by a candy on a stick. The kids will definitely love it!

In a similar way, you can design napkins for festive table, especially. if it's a youth party or children's party and starched napkins are not expected.

Sandwiches made from kitchen napkins. Why not? You can even use real food containers - it will look even more natural.

Do you want to decorate your towels in the form of a roll? It could be a “Christmas log”, a “Fairy Tale” cake or a fluffy roll with whipped cream - it’s all about what color of towel you use and what lekor you add.

We make “ice cream” in the same way as muffins, but instead of cardboard packaging we use transparent plastic cup. Add with a stick or spoon.

You can use disposable conical glasses.

A simpler option in the form of a horn.

The cake design of towels is good when you decide to make great gift, including a set of towels of different sizes and a bath sheet. What shape to put together the “cake” and how many tiers it will have depends on the total quantity and volume of textiles.

Such a “cake” - good gift for a wedding or on the occasion of the birth of a baby. You can arrange it in the most different styles and don’t skimp on additional items and decor. Taking into account the size of the structure, you can hide a small surprise gift inside, which will delight the recipient after the holiday, when the single “cake” ceases to exist.

The “cake” can also be made with filling, placing many useful items inside.

Textile “bottles” are very original version! And it’s not at all necessary to look for similar gift sets on sale - just print out templates for packaging boxes and labels on a printer.

If you are fond of handicrafts and know how to work with paper, then your packaging can become a real exclusive! After all, one glance is enough for a needlewoman to appreciate the idea and come up with a hundred of her own decor options.

Simple and elegant! A great gift for March 8th. Just like in the previous version, we simply print out the box or make it from thick cardboard and decorate it as desired.

Candles. Look - how simple, but how original! A wonderful option for a gift for New Year or Christmas. You can experiment a little and create candles with a “flame” of a different color by placing a small red or yellow napkin (or something else suitable) inside each twist.

Textile roses can be not only decorative, but also quite functional! You just need to unpack the bouquet to be convinced of this. This gift is suitable for practical housewives - both flowers and benefits!

A bouquet of roses can also be used for a baby. And you can add a variety of children's things to the bouquet - from milk bottles to soft toys.

A lovely delicate composition - all you need is a rose, a beautiful bag and suitable material to secure the folded towel.

The same thing, only in a box.

Very interesting option for a set of napkins of different colors. It will look beautiful in a box with a transparent lid.

A heart is, of course, the most suitable option for Valentine's Day. To keep the structure in shape, use a heart-shaped backing. The backing can be glued together from cardboard or you can use a disposable container (they also come in a heart shape).

Towel package with cosmetics, a postcard and a bow will please any woman.

Or you can put everything in a box and give it as a gift. or chest.

Cute design, similar to pea pods. Just four napkins and two ribbons, but it looks so interesting!

A bag with kitchen towels - bright, elegant, beautiful!

What is a kitchen without vegetables?

But another option for the kitchen is an even more practical gift.

And in conclusion - the most interesting designs made from towels - figures of men and animals. Some of them are quite complex, some are simple to perform, but all of them are very amazing and always attract attention.

There is no point in describing all this - here it is better to turn to master classes. In the meantime, just admire and dream about what holiday you would like to prepare similar gifts for your family.

So this is a swan. To do this, spread out yourself and two upper edges fold it in the middle to form a triangle. Curl the outer edges toward the center. Top point given triangle will become the head of a swan, and hide its tail under another towel, which should be laid out in waves in a circle. You can decorate your composition with various decorative leaves and. Your guests are shocked at the sight of such a “terry statue”.

A square towel can be folded into the shape of a hare. Take a previously prepared towel and twist it into a tight rope. Next, fold it in half and fold one edge. Tie it with a ribbon at the base. This way you will get the head and ears of a hare. Attach the eyes. You can use various buttons and decorative Velcro for them.

You can also fold the hare in another way. Twist the towel into a double rope. Then fold one edge and tie it with a ribbon in the same way as in the previous method. Tie a cute bow for the bunny and attach some eyes. The muzzle can be embroidered with colored threads. This figurine can be made as a gift for your loved ones.

You can also fold an elephant just as easily. Spread a towel on a flat surface and fold its edges at the bottom and top, measuring 15 centimeters from them in advance. Then fold the edges again to the same length. Start rolling the towel on the left, gradually moving towards the middle, then roll exactly the same “roll” on the right. Holding the towel flat side up, fold it in half. You have the legs and body of an elephant. Now put them aside for a while and take another towel.

Lay it horizontally with the long side, press the top of the towel in the middle with something so that it does not move at the wrong moment. Roll the towel into a tube on both sides so that it looks like the airplane we all used to make out of paper. The “tubes” should be as tight as possible. Curl the edges towards the center as far as possible. Turn the towel flat side up. Fold its bottom edge so that the sides look like ears. Pull the pointed part in and bend it slightly so that it resembles a trunk. And one last thing. Place the head of your elephant on the previously made body. That's all, the elephant is ready. You can also decorate it with eyes, bows, etc.

A universal selection of gift ideas for any occasion and occasion. Surprise your friends and loved ones! ;)

Hello, dear friends. We continue the theme of presenting souvenirs to family and friends for various holidays. Today I will talk about how to beautifully fold a towel as a gift.

Superstitions aside: do they give towels as gifts?

Perhaps some of you will now say: “Do they even give a towel as a gift?” Of course they give. There is a version that such a gift leads to quarrels, separations, and hostility.

In my opinion, it is easier to blame an innocent piece of material for all your troubles than to try to find the root of the problem. It all depends on your emotional perception of it. If you then suffer from sleepless nights because you made a “forbidden” gift, make a decision in favor of your health. Come up with something different.

But, nevertheless, as they say, there is no smoke without fire. And if you are a superstitious person, then there is an excellent solution to this controversial issue - take money for this gift (symbolic, of course). And it automatically moves from the “gifts” row to the “purchases” department.

Delighting the kids with an interesting presentation

Who else but children love something interesting, unusual and, at first glance, even magical? Children are real connoisseurs of this. It’s difficult to surprise with a towel neatly folded in a bag, but if you roll it into a fancy shape, you’ll be simply delighted! Let's take as a basis what children love most:

• ice cream,
• lollipops,
• toys.

Let's use this knowledge to design a gift.

Ice cream. Choose a towel in bright colors (raspberry, deep yellow, orange, etc.). Using the step-by-step video instructions, you will be able to turn the gift into the children’s favorite sweet.

Lollipops. Perhaps not a single children's party goes by without sweet candies. To make the candy look real, use two different colors. For example, red and white, yellow and green, but you can also do it like in the master class:

Pack the souvenir in transparent wrapping paper and the lollipop is ready.

Toys. Create a baby elephant with your own hands, for example. You will need 2 types of towels: bath and hand. Use the following colors: white, blue, blue, gray. To make it look like a real one, decorate it with “toy eyes.” You can find them at any craft store. Follow the instructions in the photo to create your masterpiece.

And here is an example of creating a crab . To roll a towel into this shape you need to:

1. Place it vertically;
2. Fold the sides inside the towel.
3. Straighten the bottom of the towel;
4. Roll it halfway from the bottom up;
5. Remove the side ends;
6. Bend them down;
7. Fold the top corner of the towel down and inward by a third;
8. Wrap again. You will get a head.

You will definitely want to play with such souvenirs.

We create masterpieces for the fair half

Girls can be fascinated by many things: a beautiful sunset, a fancy pattern on their favorite towel, etc. I think it won’t be difficult to please them with a wonderful towel product. Moreover, women can be given both a kitchen waffle and a terry bath towel.

For a girl you can create:

• roses,
• swans,
• cupcake

Roses. All girls undoubtedly love to be pampered, given attention and given flowers. All this can be embodied in one simple surprise. So I propose to create a floral gift, as in the video:

You can choose any color of the towel. But if you want the flower to look more natural, choose pink, yellow, peach, burgundy or white. You don’t have to limit yourself to just one flower; prepare a whole bouquet.

Swans. These beautiful birds are a symbol of pure and true love, tenderness and devotion. Swans should always be given in pairs. By creating this miracle from a towel, you will convey the full depth of your feelings. This photo shows how to properly design this craft:

Cupcake. Despite the fact that all women do not eat after 18.00, and flour and sweets are generally taboo, this gift will not leave her indifferent. You will need:

• Scissors;
• Ruler;
• Wrapping paper;

A towel is, although not expensive, very useful gift. But many people often have a question: how to decorate it correctly so that the present does not look too banal? From this article you will learn how to pack a towel as a gift in several ways.

Strawberry cupcake

To make the gift you prepared look like a cute cupcake, it needs to be folded using the origami technique, and not rolled.

In order to wrap your holiday gift in an original way, stock up on the following materials:

• One hand towel - it should be square and have a light shade, otherwise the recipient will not associate it with a cupcake.
• Transparent cup (can be replaced with a cardboard cup).
• Decorative strawberries or wild strawberries.
• Cellophane for gift wrapping.
• Spool of thread.

So, the materials are prepared. It's time to start original gift wrapping:

1. Fold all four corners of the square towards the center.
2. Fold the ends of the new square towards the center in the same way.
3. If necessary, fold the towel again in the same way - you need the workpiece to fit into the cup.
4. Place the spool of thread in the center of the square.
5. Turn the resulting workpiece over and wrap it around the spool.
6. Place the threads aside.
7. Place the already compacted towel in the prepared cup.
8. Decorate the top of the “cupcake” with a prepared decorative berry.
9. Pack the composition in beautiful wrapping paper. It is desirable that it be transparent.

Cake

A festive cake made from several towels looks very original and expensive. However, to pack a gift in this way, you need to try.

In order to beautifully wrap a towel as a gift with your own hands in this way, prepare the following items and materials for work:

• 3 pieces of corrugated cardboard, suitable in size.
• 3 gift towels (they must be of different sizes).
• Artificial roses with branches, decorative ribbons to decorate the three-tier cake and the packaging in general.
• Cellophane for gift wrapping.

Let's move on to the master class itself:

• Make three floor blanks from prepared corrugated cardboard. To do this, you need to fold each of them into a ring and fasten it with tape.

Important! All pieces must fit inside each other, and the inner piece must be the tallest of all three.

• Wrap the lowest tier of the future cake, decorating it with decorative ribbon.
• Carry out the same manipulations with the remaining tiers.
• Place the tiers on top of each other, securing them. The base of the cake is ready.
• Now you can move on to decorating the product. To do this, you can use all the decorative elements that were prepared earlier. You can also use decorative beads and sparkles, the main thing is to use your imagination.

Important! Artificial flowers can be replaced with real ones. This will make your work look more expensive and even more original.

Cupcake “heart”

A round three-tier cake is, of course, a packaging classic. But this does not mean at all that other shapes and sizes of gift towel packaging will look less impressive.

To make a heart out of a towel, you will need:

• Towel measuring 70 by 50 cm.
• Decorative elements to decorate the composition.
• A mold that looks like a heart.
• Satin ribbon matching the color of the gift.

Let's move on to making the composition:

1. The first step is to fold the rectangle into 3 equal parts.
2. Start rolling the workpiece on both sides.
3. Place the dough in the previously prepared heart mold.
4. To hide the seam, attach artificial berries or flowers to decorate the cupcake.
5. Decorate the piece by wrapping a ribbon around the bottom and wrapping it in clear wrapping paper. The gift heart cupcake is ready.

Rosette

Giving roses on a birthday is also a classic. What if these roses were made from soft gift towels? Most likely, the hero of the occasion will be pleasantly surprised by your interesting gift.

To work you will need:

• Two towels - green and red.
• Decorative decorations to give the gift a finished look.
• Gift paper for packaging the composition.

To fold a towel in the shape of a rose in an original way, you need to follow these instructions:

• Fold the green rectangle towards the middle of the opposite side (it should be short).
• Make a roller that has a conical shape. To do this, you need to roll the towel over the edge of the fold, while at the same time holding your finger at the place where it begins.
• Leave the small triangle unrolled.
• Fold this corner into a shape resembling a leaf. The stalk is ready.
• Take a red rectangle and bend it along the long side.
• Fold a corner at one end of the long rectangle - it will be the center of the future rose.
• Roll the folded corner towards the center - you only need to make one turn.
• Bend the untouched part of the towel at an angle of 180 degrees.

Important! Make sure that the fold is even and neat - the final result depends on this.

• Roll up the fold. Fold the end of the resulting roller towards the side that is inside (angle - 45 degrees).
• Continue bending the workpiece. At the end, secure the rose.
• Fasten the two flower parts.
• Decorate and package the rose.

The composition is ready!

Gift for a man

Packing a towel as a gift for a man is a little more difficult. The reason for such a gift can be anything, say, a birthday, Defender of the Fatherland Day, wedding anniversary or something else.

There are two informal rules for gift wrapping for men:

• If you are going to give your man a towel, it is recommended to choose products in dark colors.
• The packaging itself should also be in subdued colors. Most often, girls choose this packaging option - the main gift is placed in a box and wrapped with a satin ribbon of the desired color.

To properly pack a gift towel for a man, you must follow this algorithm:

• Choose a suitable box - it can be in the shape of a square or rectangle.

Important! If you have a shoebox, be sure to cover it with wrapping paper or decorate it to your liking.

• Roll the gift towel you prepared into the shape of a box.
• Tie it crosswise using satin ribbon, - it should be the same color as the box.

Important! If you are going to give two or more towels, connect them together by tying them with a ribbon in the same way, and then put them in a gift box.
