Swedish dishcloths and tea towels
What is a Swedish dishcloth?
A reusable cloth made of 70% cellulose and 30% cotton that absorbs up to 15 times its own weight. It works like a sponge and a paper towel in one. Shop Swedish dishcloths.
How do I wash a Swedish dishcloth?
Wash it in the washing machine or the dishwasher, then let it air dry. Skip fabric softener and the tumble dryer so it stays absorbent and the print stays bright.
How long does a Swedish dishcloth last?
With normal use the print lasts around six months. Replace it when it stops absorbing well or wears thin. It is 100% biodegradable.
What size are the tea towels?
19" × 30". They are machine washable, and many prints match our dishcloths. Shop tea towels or kitchen sets.
Turkish trays and bowls
Where are the trays and bowls made?
In Istanbul, Türkiye, from printed tin.
What sizes are the trays?
Small 6.25" × 9.75" ($12), large 8.5" × 12.5" ($17) and round 11.5" across ($17). The mini bowls are 3.75" across ($6).
Can I serve food on them?
Not directly. The trays and bowls are decorative and not food safe. Use them for drinks, candles and everyday pieces, or put food on a plate first.
Are they dishwasher safe?
Yes. Hand washing keeps the print bright the longest.
Candles and wax melts
Where are the candles and wax melts made?
Both are handmade in England. The wax melts are made with vegan-friendly soya wax and come in plastic-free packaging.
How long do the wax melts last?
Each wax melt duo has two melts and gives up to 40 hours of fragrance in total.
How do I use wax melts?
Put one melt in the top dish of a wax melter and an unscented tealight underneath. Never leave a lit candle or tealight unattended. Shop home fragrance.
