Folding a Towel Fish: Step-by-Step Guide with Photos and Comments

In this towel folding guide and all our other guides, we strive to use only materials that are available in every household or easily obtainable in the nearest store. For our fish, you need a simple, inexpensive towel. A medium-sized towel in a blue color works best for an authentic sea creature. The thinner the towel, the easier it is to fold and retain its shape.

What You Need for the Towel Fish:

  • A medium-sized towel (preferably blue)
  • Two googly eyes
  • Possibly a rubber band (to secure the shape)

Step 1:

To make the fish, you need a rectangular blue towel and two googly eyes. First, lay the towel flat, then shape the head of the fish by making several folds, and attach the googly eyes. After that, roll the towel lengthwise and fold or twist it in the middle to achieve the final fish shape.
