How to Make a DIY Towel Bear

They were so cute and even had eyes and whiskers on them. They definitely made us smile and they even gave us chocolates. 10/10 for the customer service, right? I got curious and wanted to know how they make a DIY towel bear, so I looked for instructions online and found this tutorial by CITRA SHAYMA DIY.

How to Make a Bear Using a Towel

Step 1:

Start by laying your towel on a flat surface with the long side facing you.

Step 2:

Fold 1/4 of the sides of the towel toward the center.

Step 3:

Roll from the bottom all the way to the middle. Repeat with the other side, so the rolls meet in the middle.

Step 4:

Fold the towel in half with the rolls facing outside. Make it stand.

Step 5:

Get a small towel and fold it, leaving a few inches to the other side. From the folded edge, fold the corners toward the center to make triangles, but leave a small space in the middle.

Step 6:

Flip it and fold the bottom all the way to the top with the edge of the towel as a guide. There should be a small triangle on the top and the folded part on the bottom should not line up. Fold it in half, and tuck the peak a little bit. Fix the ears, then tie the bottom with a rubber band.

Step 7:

Place the head inside the large folded towel and you are done.
