You might use the dishwasher for almost everything in the kitchen cupboards but the humble washing-up bowl isn’t defunct yet! There are still times when you need to roll up your sleeves and get stuck into some good, old-fashioned washing up. Anything that’s crystal or cast iron shouldn’t go into the dishwasher, and keep those expensive, sharp knives out too. So when mum’s cooked a tasty casserole for dinner and you’ve used the special-occasion-only wine glasses, it’s time to whip out this tea towel and do the washing-up! (Might be an idea to pop the kettle on for mum too…)Woven from a hard-wearing cotton, flax and viscose mix, the soft tea towel has a textured feel and comes in a natural colour finish, which gives it a charming rustic appearance. Embroidered in blue, purple and pink thread in the middle are the words ‘Keep Calm (recipient’s name) I’ll  Help Wash Up’ and a tea cup, and we’ll put your message beneath too.There’s a cotton tab on one corner so that you can hang the tea towel on a hook or drawer handle.And just in case you’ve forgotten the art of washing up, don’t use too many bubbles!What Can I Put On My Tea Towel?We’ll embroider any name onto the tea towel, up to 12 characters, and any message up to 20 characters.Use our innovative preview feature to see how your message will look – type in your chosen words and press the Preview button.Material: 86% cotton & flax, 14% viscose (machine washable)Dimensions: L71cm x W51cm x D0.2cm
