Tea towels are generally cheap and plentiful, and if you're not afraid of sewing, useful as scrap fabric. One example of this is the blue and white tea towel curtain above, which charms us with its country — yet modern and crafty — style.
What makes this work for us is the limited palette and uniform size, paired with the randomness and diversity of patterns and textures.

Nice idea for a secondary home I find.
Somehow I find it gives sort of a Swedish feel, probably because of the blue plaid.
Totally dig it, but I think they need to be aligned better in order for it to look right. Might just have to try this.
Already posted, but nice to see again. Still want to know where that rug came from. Can anybody help?
Pretty recent post, but still pretty.

I liked it 2 weeks ago---and still like it today. Now all I need is a casual weekend home to carry it off.
I would love to know about that rug too! Help please!
