DIY MAKEUP COTTON PADS

Eco Friendly Makeup Remover Pads

Loads of scrap fabric that you cannot think of a use for??? Look no further- these cotton reusable makeup remover pads are fantastic for the environment and also a really cute addition to a dressing table.

What you would need to make your own:

Cotton fabric- fat quarters or cotton scraps are ideal
Terry Towelling – could you old towels or flannels or you could try micro fibre or bamboo fabric
Sewing machine – could be sewn by hand but much quicker and firmer stitch on the machine
Thread
Scissors
Template to draw round- I used a washed out jar of lemon curd 🍋
A fabric marker that can be easily removed

Directions:

Using your template draw circles onto your cotton and terry towelling fabric and cute out.
If you want to add the handles cut out the shape from your cotton fabric 1inch x 3.5inch. Fold in the handle fabric along the lengths 5mm and sew- then cut off the corners and fold down the ends and sew.
Using a straight stitch sew together the two circles wrong sides together and add the handle with a straight stitch on the patter side.
Then use a zig zag stitch or an overlocker to seal the outside of the project.
So easy and can produce beautiful and very practical results.
Experiment with different colours and patterns and just have fun with it!!! 💚💚💚💚
