If you're like me, you stock up on tea towels when you go to the dollar store. I had a few lying around in my craft room and as luck would have it, I had some iron-on transfer paper too. Put two and two together and you get some cute new towels: I bought this image off of Etsy (popalicious, 99 cents!) over the weekend.

I decided to give it a French-y makeover: I gave it a couple of coats of white paint. While that was drying, I used some French script scrapbook paper for my background.
