Each one features a beautiful hand-drawn design that adds charm to your space—and naturally hides stains between washes. Whether you're drying dishes, lining a bread basket, or just adding a pop of pattern to your kitchen, this towel is the perfect blend of everyday utility and timeless style.
We use only natural materials—never recycled synthetics—so no harmful microplastics ever touch your skin, your food, or your dishes.
Story Behind the Design
Story Behind the Design
I grew up swimming laps with my siblings on our local swim team—where the water became a place of laughter, growth, and belonging. Years later, watching schools of fish move together through the ocean reminded me of that same sense of community. Swim Team celebrates how water seems to bring us together—reminding us that in the vastness of the sea, we’re never meant to swim alone.

Both Beautiful and Functional PLUS Why I Created These Towels
You no longer have to choose between function and beauty when buying a kitchen towel
These kitchen towels are so much more than decoration! My 100% cotton flour sack tea towels are a luxuriously thick 180 gram cotton that is soft and gentle on your hands. These towels are generously sized and ultra absorbent–perfect for drying hands and dishes, cleaning up spills, and replacing paper towels! These towels grow softer and more absorbent the more they are used and washed.
Why I created these towels
I got so tired of towels that were just “kitchen decorations”. They were beautiful, but stained easily and were also thin, rough on my hands, too small, and some almost seem to repel water rather than absorb it. So, I went on a mission to create the perfect kitchen towel for those searching for a fashionable AND functional tea towel to transform their kitchen or bathroom.
Designed for Daily Use and Hiding Stains
Each kitchen towel is printed on the entire front side with one of Jennifer’s hand-drawn designs to naturally hide stains. Most kitchen towels are thin, small, printed in colors that accentuate stains (or mostly white). They also wrinkle when dried or are just not super absorbent. Our towels are crafted to really assist you in the kitchen, have designs that naturally hide stains, and they get softer and more absorbent the more they are used, not to mention they come out of the dryer wrinkle-free!
Jennifer believes that spending time in the kitchen is a gift to your family & friends and that you should have beautiful towels that really work. Everything in the kitchen gets stained, its up to the fabric design and it's movement to hide that stain so it doesn't jump out at you.
