Tea Towel Tuesday: Pretty Dishy


The problem with beautiful tea towels is that I never want to use them on the menial drying tasks as they were designed for. I want to hang them up like artwork and admire them instead. And this one from rock'n'roller boutique DollyDagger is a definite contender for the wall.

I love the kooky eclectic print: the anchor background, the polkadot rose, the floral birds - it's crazy but it works, being edgy and pretty all at once. Actually, on second thought perhaps I WILL use it to dry my dishes. It will make me happier when I do my chores, and that's surely the whole point. Especially when it's only £6.99.

  1. I'm totally with you!!! I bought this gorgeous tea towel at the weekend (http://www.emmabridgewater.co.uk/black-toast/black-toast-happiness-tea-towel/invt/bwhp914/) but can't bring myself to use it. I'm seriously thinking of framing and hanging it up instead...

  2. The ditsier (?) the better for me. I like this one. I had some special just-for-show teatowels but my sister had the audacity to use them during a party. How rude!

    (Surely I'm not the only person who has not to be used tea towels. *hopes* )
