From Paint to Pattern: Boutique Towel Design Workshop

Create artwork that goes beyond the paper and into your home.

In this watercolor workshop, you’ll design a collection of hand-painted patterns and playful illustrated elements—such as berries, citrus, and other fresh, everyday-inspired objects. Cecilia will guide you step-by-step through creating loose, expressive backgrounds and layering in simple, vibrant subject matter. You’ll explore techniques that allow the watercolor to flow naturally while still building a cohesive, intentional design.

After class, your artwork will be transformed into a custom waffle knit hand towel—perfect for your kitchen or bathroom. Your finished towel will be professionally printed and mailed to you within 3–4 weeks, along with your original watercolor pieces.

Many participants choose to frame their original artwork to display alongside their towel, creating a coordinated and personal touch within their space.
This workshop is perfect for those wanting to gather and learn a new skill AND be able to display the finished result in their home in multiple ways. The hand towel is also perfect for gifting- a true personalized touch!

● Basic watercolor techniques and brush control
● How to create soft patterns for backgrounds
