Yes, dear readers, you read that correctly, little old moi has been asked to choose and review two tea towels from All Tea Towels.co.uk and what's even better, I get to keep them! How exciting is that!
What I like about tea towels is that they're almost like a little work of art in your kitchen!
Get a load of the first beauty that I chose.
Cutesy gingham border:
Pretty floral background:
And a slogan right up my street:

| What's not to love? |
I may have mentioned that my cake baking is not my forte. My cakes tend to resemble hard, dry, old biscuits - not dissimilar to the hard, old biscuit that I blogged about in my previous post. Oh, and by the way, to those of you who mentioned dunking. Yes, I did dunk the biscuit in my cup of coffee - it was still rock hard (and absolutely tasteless).
Anyway, back to teatowels. My second teatowel features an image from a Ladybird book (I'm a big fan and a collector of Ladybirds):

| I'm a big fan of boiled eggs too! |
Both tea towels are 100% cotton, fabulous quality and I'm very pleased with them. Go check out the All Tea Towels.co.uk website. They have an immense collection and they even have a "Nostalgic and Retro" range. Free p&p to UK residents too!
Between you and me, dear readers, I could get used to this reviewing lark. If anyone would like me to review the iPad 2, I'd be happy to oblige......
Anyway, my tea towel collection is coming on a treat. As well as my two new additions above, I've struck lucky in the charity shops recently:

| This is my favourite |
As part of Lakota's fabulous Faith, Hope and Charity Shopping Swap thingy, I received this bunch of goodies from my swapping pardner, Land Girl (many thanks Old Bean):
And, if that little lot wasn't enough, there were tea towels too:
Well, I don't know about you, but I'm a little tea-towelled out. Luckily, I'm off on holiday (again) to recover from all the excitement! Bye bye, dear readers, or, as they say in the part of the world that I'm going to, Nasvidenje! xxxxxxxxxxxx
Love the Tea Towels especially Dartmoor one, as I love the place!

Again?! You gallivanter you! Hope you have a wonderful time :)
ReplyDeleteThe boiled egg tea towel is all sorts of brilliant but I can't stop going back and looking at the first one from the swap. It's just mental!
great tea towels indeed. i really like the egg one. and i adore the dartmoor one! x
ReplyDeleteWhat fab tea towels. My parents had the wild animals of Britain tea towel way back so that one brought back a few memories. Have a great holiday and you never know, you might find a tea towel memento!
ReplyDeleteJo xx
Gorgeous tea towels - especially love the Dartmoor one.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful time on holiday!

All the tea towels are fab, not sure a girl can ever have enough, BUT, some are just too pretty to use! Maybe we use them wrong in our house, burn marks, blackcurrant stains and random holes / tears! I'd either have to keep them locked away or smack hubbys hand away with a wooden spoon!
ReplyDeleteLovely towels - enjoy your holiday. (No it wasn't rude!)
ReplyDeleteLove from Mum

I get ridiculously excited when I find a vintage tea towel! I love yours, especially the Taunton Vale one. What an honour to get to review some, sure beats the rubbish stuff I get in my inbox!
ReplyDeleteHave a brilliant holiday! x
You live you do - reviewing teatowels! Life couldn't possibly get anymore exciting can it?
ReplyDeleteWhat fabulous tt's and even better you get some beauties to review and keep! Love it! Have a fabulous hols Scarlett x
ReplyDeleteSuper tea towels, they'd make a brilliant curtain.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Glad you liked my mosaic wall - I keep meaning to repair it, but never get round to it!

Another holiday, gorgeous tea towels, what more could a girl want??? (apart from an ipad 2!)
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love your purple 1970 tt Loo...I can see why it's your fave.
Godspeed, happy travels x
Love the animal tea towels! Have a lovely holiday x
ReplyDeleteMy favorites tea towels are the Taunton Vale one with those lush colors and gingham border one with a very truthful statement because I can't bake anything either!
ReplyDeleteLove the Ladybird image one.
ReplyDeleteHow come I only ever get offers to blog about stuff that I'm not interested in - US cooking products seems to be a favourite :(
;-))) Loads of tea towels i love the Taunton Vale one they were made local to me and i love Taunton vale items. Lovely little package to, enjoy all your lovely things, dee x
ReplyDeleteOoh you lucky thing you, all I've been asked about is someone's diet application - yes, that's so me - where they addressed me as 'Faith'. Obviously a long time reader of my blog! Love the teatowels you choose, and a fab selection from Land Girl too.
ReplyDeleteHave a great time on your hols! x
Oh Lovely Tea Towels. I loves a bit of artiness in my otherwise drab kitchen. You chose well. Very well.
ReplyDeleteMadison xxx
Wow more holidays, lucky you. I'm very boring I only use towelling tea towels, you could fill rooms displaying all the decorative ones though, couldn't you?
ReplyDeleteyou can never have too many tea towels my fave one is the same as yours

ohmygosh, those tea towels are awesome. i love that first one ;)
ReplyDeleteFabulous tea towels - I would get in a tizzy too. I'm also a dippy egg lover. Thanks for the link to that website, will have to check it out.
ReplyDeleteBy the way honey, i don't think you saw my post announcing the winner to my giveaway...err that would be you love. Can you email me your home address when you get a mo. Thanks and congrats!!
Loving all your tea towels, but that Ladybird print boiled egg one is fabbo - although some of the vintage one's you've found are pretty spectacular too. I do love a nice tea towel.
ReplyDeleteArgh, love the boiled egg! I think you might be turning me on to your tea towel obsession! x
ReplyDeletetea towel love!
ReplyDeletealso, I love the name of your blog. When I was in Scotland a few years ago, I stayed at a bed and breakfast. The lady who owned it shared my love of fun vintage things and we spoke a lot about the jumble shops she frequented.

Fantastic teatowels. Now I'm wishing I could have sent you a Basque one! Because they make linen they are the teatowel kings of France... although they have better claims to fame than that, perhaps. I hope your Rough Guide filled you in.
ReplyDeleteWonderful website you have here but I was curious if you knew of any discussion boards that cover the
