I was drawn to the design of the TORVFLY dish towels<\/a> at first, bright cross sections of citrus and dragon fruit in cheery yellow, orange, and pink that reminded me of the Bauhaus modern art posters<\/a> we have in our dining room. The bright colors and minimalist geometric arrangements are unlike anything I\u2019ve seen before on towels, and they added instant color and whimsy to my hard-working kitchen.<\/p>\n

The towels are so eye-catching, in fact, guests always comment on them. Friends want to know where I got them, some have even guessed that I found them at a high-end gallery shop! But nope, just IKEA.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Which leads me to the next thing I love about these towels \u2014 they\u2019re such a deal! At just $4.99 for a four-pack, they\u2019re affordable enough to use every day. In fact, I\u2019ve bought them several times and given them as hostess gifts<\/a>, much to the delight of friends who love to cook as much as I do (and even the ones who don\u2019t).<\/p>\n

The towels are a loose weave of 100% cotton and while they\u2019re not quite as absorbent or thick as my other favorite kitchen towels<\/a> (that waffle weave can\u2019t be beat), they\u2019re perfect for drying my hands at the sink and as a side towel while I\u2019m cooking. With repeated washings the towels soften considerably and take on a slightly nubby texture that makes them look like they\u2019re made of pricey linen cloth. I bought my first set over six months ago and they\u2019ve held up well, despite their good looks and lots of washes<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Hung on the oven door, on the hook in front of the kitchen sink, or just folded and put on my island while I work, they add a touch of sunny whimsy to my kitchen-slash-office. Every time I see them, they bring a smile to my face because it reminds me that I can<\/em> treat myself to pretty things without breaking the bank (or being impractical).\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
