Bathroom Style

This weekend I was in Hillsdale, a Portland neighborhood, and wandered in a little Turkish bath shop. I then proceeded to learn about Turkish towels. 

A peshtemal is a Turkish traditional towel used in the Turkish baths. The peshtemal absorbs water as fast as a towel, dries very quickly, takes up less space and easy to carry and is therefore used as an alternative to the towel in bathrooms, pools, spas, beaches, sport facilities and for baby care. It's great for traveling too! 

The peshtemal fabric is made of 100% cotton produced in hand-woven looms in Turkey.

These products are highly water absorbent so they're suitable for using in the bathroom. Look for a local shop to buy them, but if you do not prevail, here is an Etsy Shop that sells them. The Hillsdale shop owner told me that once I go Turkish, I will never go back.

 This bathroom is so sweet - open, airy, clean... The curtains make is seem like a little hide away.

Happy Weekend

 

Hello beautiful bathroom. The sky in Portland is pure gray and it's raining tiny rain drops. A bath with a glass of champagne sounds lovely doesn't it? Have a nice weekend!

Holler Bathroom

 

I haven't had much time to post this week between finishing up my term and work, but this is a lovely little bathroom renovation by HollerDesign that combines modern with old farmhouse is pretty great. The florist I frequent calls those little yellow flowers billy balls. I have some on my dining room table and love them. You can buy them fresh and keep them basically forever because they dry just as they are.
