Ty is a simple plastic shower curtain made from Tyvek — designed and thoughtfully packaged by Seattle design collective Grain Design. While Tyvek shower curtains are nothing new — they are ideally PVC-free, non-toxic, recyclable, machine washable and mold and mildew resistant — Grain Design's approach to a pre-packaged, customizable and affordable "DIY Edition" might be the hook to make Tyvek more attractive to consumers.

Although there's many things that are small and skimpy at the lake or beach this summer, your towel shouldn't be one of them. Even if you're sporting an itty bitty teeny weenie yellow polka dot bikini, it doesn't mean you shouldn't be able to kick back and relax in super-sized artistic fashion does it? More
Sharing a 1940's apartment, I am always fighting for storage for all my hair, make up, and bathroom products.

But one thing they all have in common is a penchant for posh towels. More
Few household purchases make you feel like a real grown-up as your first set of matching towels. Mine were a hastily chosen seafoam green terry that felt soft and silky to the touch, but left my skin a damp, linty mess. Now on my fourth set, I can confidently identify a quality bath towel.
