valentine's day | oversized kitchen/hand towel | 100% linen | made locally

a perfect valentine's day gift or a treat for you ♡

I’ve been dreaming of oversized kitchen towels to dry my dishes, wrap my bread and also as an alternative for hostess gifts. I’m over the moon in love with how these turned out and so happy to share them with you ♡

I’ve used 100% Merchant & Mills linen, as it’s simply the best, to create the perfect oversized kitchen/hand towel. All kitchen/dish towels are made locally. Linen is naturally organic, completely biodegradable, recyclable and due to its natural absorbency, it requires less dye than cotton. Linen therefore scores high on the ecological chart, which makes it perfect your home  ♡

Merchant & Mills linen is produced in small batches in Eastern Europe where there is a strong heritage of spinning and weaving linen fabric.

• 100% Merchant & Mills linen

care ♡

As with most natural fibres, shrinkage may occur. Linen tends to soften and relax over time. Wash linen with mild detergent on a gentle cycle in cool/warm water to protect fibres. While hanging/laying flat to dry is preferred, you’re welcome to tumble dry on low. Enjoy the inherent natural creases and crumples of linen. For those preferring a crisp linen, iron on reverse while fabric is damp ♡
