Sentiments from The Help

These words were spoken by Aibileen Clark
in the hit movie The Help.

Right before Christmas,
my friend Lisa asked me to make
a couple little tea towels embroidered
with these words.

They turned out pretty good so
I just listed a few in my Etsy Shop.




Just in time for Valentine's Day I also have this...




And finally a few additions to The Linen Collection.


If you are in the mood to shop,
please stop by!

beautiful, great movie too!

Perfect towels to remind us that each of are filled with those traits. I loved the book, but felt that the movie left out some of the important struggles of the maids' personal lives. Having lived in the South and growing up in the 50-60's, it definitely was an important story to tell.

Ann, these are so sweet. I love them. I read the book and loved it so much I just rented the DVD last weekend. Lovely towels.

I love "The Help". I haven't seen the movie, but have read the book and listened to it on tape. The words are great on your tea towels.

Sue said...

Loved when she told that sweet little girl those words.... Great way to use them on the towels. Ann.

Grammy Goodwill said...

Those are beautiful.

Kelly said...

What a great idea to have those words from the movie put on a towel. That would be a great reminder to look at first thing in the morning, wouldn't it? I definitely like your idea of using it as gift too.

Grammy Goodwill said...

YAY! I just learned how to PIN, too, so I pinned them!

Ceekay- Thinkin of Home said...

Oh Ann....I love that tea towel from the Help. That is one of my favorite movies and that line is just perfect. I am sure they are going to be a sell out! If I was a working girl...I would be buying one for sure!!

Terry said...

Je t'aime aussi mon amie. ;) Love the ruffle - so pretty, Ann.

Fabulous towels! I'll have to get the one with the quote from The Help for a friend within the next few weeks! We both love the movie and quote this to each other often! :)
