This DIY hack may seem silly to many people, but I have picked up a stack of reef towels at shows over the last several years and it can be a challenge to find a place to keep them where they are also readily usable. I have access to a sewing machine that automatically does button holes, so I decided to add a button hole to the corner of each of these towels so that they can easily slide on and off a hook or be used in place.

Much respect for your skills with the machine and the button hole feature. I have dabbled in sewing; not easy lol!

Full disclosure, when I said that I added the button holes, the only part that I actually had in adding the button holes was coming up with the idea and paying for the machine which was a Christmas present for someone far more capable than myself. There are a lot of benefits for sharing a home with multiple creatives and one of those individuals is pleased to practice with their new tool on reef towels! A small win for all involved!
