Dear Friends,
Lets get the house ready for the party. Embroider up a t-shirt for the birthday person and how about some placemats or pillows to go around the house. And for a bit of whimsy how about a roll of toilet paper for something fun in the bathroom. Just set it on the back of the stool for decoration and watch the smiles as people exit from your bathroom. 🙂
Quick instructions for embroidering on toilet paper: Hoop a light weight tear-away or cut-away stabilizer in your 4 x 4 hoop. Use a good quality toilet paper. I’ve used Charmin here. Unroll the paper a ways so you have plenty of slack and that it won’t pull. Take the first two squares and fold them back upon themselves so you now have a double thickness of TP. Float the toilet paper on the stabilizer. Key is just to make sure you have slack as your machine stitches and that there is no pulling. I shouldn’t need to say this but will because who knows who will read this in the future, but this roll of toilet paper is for decorative purposes only. 🙂 Embroidered toilet paper also makes a fun gag gift.
Happy Birthday comes in two sizes, one for your 4 x 4 hoop and the other for your 5 x 7 hoop. The small size was used on the TP and the large size was used on the placemat.
Happy Birthday can be found in the Embroidery It Etsy store HERE.
I hope you have a wonderful day everyone!
