Tea Towel Tuesday: Mellor Ware

Tea towels are like the socks of the kitchen. One day you have lots all hanging up and the next they've all gone missing. I've got my beady eye on these Mellor Ware designs from Liberty. Lianne Mellor presented to Liberty during the Best of British open call.


Here's a little badger and hedgehog faced with a massive pile of dishes. I'd be faced with the same if I wasn't hiding in my bedroom. It's like they multiply when you're being really damn lazy not looking.


Is it just me or is there something a little Wicker Man meets Wind in the Willows about this maypole design? Not 100% sure that's a good thing, but the little hedgehog is being adorable.


This design has no hedgehog, but the blue tit is having one helluva time with his cupcake.

The tea towels are £12.50 each. You can also buy cups and plates in the same designs.

  1. Lianne's designs are brilliant. I've got a few bits of her china. I LOVE it.

  2. If that blue tit eats the whole cake by himself, he won't be able to fly for a week (that's if he's not sick...)!
    Love these - and the hedgehog is really gorgeous!
