How to Draw a Towel
Draw a towel in 11 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the towel.
Step 1: The towel
In the middle of your paper draw a tall box hanging down, with the 2 bottom corners rounded off.
Tip Like a door with soft bottom corners.
Step 2: The rail
Across the top draw a long rail with a knob on each end. Add a fold curve just under it.
Step 3: Two big eyes
On the towel, above the middle, draw 2 big egg eyes. Colour a big black dot in each.
Step 4: Smile and cheeks
Under the eyes draw a wide U smile from eye to eye. Draw a small flat cheek beside each end.
Step 5: Top stripes
Above the face, start on the left edge and draw a line across to the right. Draw another just under.
Step 6: Bottom stripes
Below the face draw 2 more lines across the towel the same way.
Step 7: Fringe
Along the bottom of the towel draw 10 short lines hanging down, evenly spaced.
Step 8: Sparkles
Draw a sparkle star on each side of the towel.
Step 9: Pink cheeks
Go over your lines, then colour the cheeks pink.
Step 10: Blue towel
Colour the towel sky blue around the cheeks. Leave the stripes and the eyes white.
Step 11: Grey rail
Colour the rail and its knobs grey, and your towel is ready to dry off!
