About the service
I create personalized sets of bath towels with embroidered monograms — a simple towel transforms into a gift that's a pleasure both to give and to receive. If you need a matching set for a wedding, a housewarming gift, an anniversary, or simply want to decorate towels in your home, I'll help you choose the monogram style, thread color, and embroidery placement tailored to your specific towels and occasion.
The work begins with a brief discussion: who is the gift for and what mood should it convey. It could be a classic monogram of one or three letters, intertwined initials of newlyweds with a shared surname, letters in a wreath of flowers, or a small ornament next to lettering — a heart, leaf, or anchor. Before I pick up the needle, I create a couple of layout options to fit the trim or edge of the towel so you can approve the font and composition in advance.
I can embroider on my own towels (cotton or cotton blend, selected for density and absorbency) or on a set you already own or purchase separately — whatever works better for your budget. The embroidery is done on a home embroidery machine with backing suitable for terry fabric: the letters come out crisp and clean, without puckering, and remain perfect after many washes.
I first check the density and thread tension on a scrap of the same terry cloth so the embroidery lies evenly over the pile without sinking into it. A standard order is a set of two hand towels and two bath towels, but you can expand the set to include a sheet, face towel, and robe, or create just one accent towel instead.
The turnaround time is usually about a week after design approval and receiving materials; rush orders for a specific wedding date can often be expedited with advance notice. I package the finished set in tissue with a ribbon so it's ready to give as a gift, or I can send it directly to the recipient with a card. Send me the initials, desired colors, and timeline — I'll prepare several design options for you to choose from.
