"No Sew" Unpaper Towels with KAM Snaps
"No Sew" Unpaper Towels with KAM Snaps
Supplies:
- 12 Micro Fiber Clothes or Terry Cloth Kitchen Towels or Hand Towels
- Template for KAM Snap placement and fine point marker
- 72 KAM Snap Sets
- KAM Snap Pliers and Awl
Instructions:
- Choose your Micro Fiber Clothes, I went with a mix of Neon Yellow, Lime Green, and Light Blue colored Clothes and picked from my 130+ color choices to find the best match KAM snaps. Some people use Terry Cloth Kitchen towels or Hand Clothes but I love the cleaning power of Micro Fiber Clothes plus my dear husband found me a screaming deal on Amazon he just couldn't pass up :). I have a surplus of toilet paper and other household items for the very same reason :P. I also have used Micro Fiber clothes from Walmart, I find them on clearance pretty often which makes them very reasonable.
- I made a template with clear plastic. It was 1"x 11"-ish strip of plastic (to match the length of my Micro Fiber Clothes) and I punched 3 holes: the 1st at 1/2" down and 1/2" in, the 2nd at the other end same 1/2" up and 1/2" in, and the 3rd exactly in the middle of the 2 holes 1/2" in. You can do 2 holes but the 3rd hole keeps the Unpaper Towels from sagging in the middle.
- Then I marked with a super fine tipped permanent marker where to place the snaps holes.
- Now install the KAM Snaps, in each hole, I recommend doing all the ones on the left first and then all the ones on the right. I found that I get mixed up otherwise and have to undo my hard work. So I did KAM Snap Caps down (under) on the left with the studs face up (top). Then I did the right side, I did KAM Snap Caps up (top) with sockets down on (under).
- Now snap all your towels together, roll them up, and place them on your paper towel holder.
- Tada, No Sew! I think it looks so much nicer than a kitchen drawer crammed full of wrinkled clothes, don't you :). Happy Snapping and Cleaning!!!
