Kitchens have wardrobes, too.

Filed under Accessories.

I’m no 1950′s homemaker housewife type, but that doesn’t stop me from appreciating tasteful textiles. These guys from Olli & Lime look fantastic against the high gloss cabinet doors & concrete countertops.  They’d be equally at home in a black & white kitchen.

In my mind,  simple + modern = understated elegance.  Towels are probably the easiest way to freshen the look of a kitchen & there are a bazillion choices out there.

Don’t like the off the shelf variety?

Design your own!  A couple of weeks ago I visited Spoonflower’s operation just down the road. They’re a print on demand company but instead of paper, they print on fabric. Think, giant inkjet printers & wide rolls of organic cotton.

The possibilities are endless.

& I would totally wear that Olli & Lime George apron.
