It’s always great to see companies collaborating with some of our favorite independent artists. West Elm just paired with Shanna Murray on this new Flag Conversions tea towel that is not only cute, but also super handy to have around the kitchen. Shanna’s towels have a sweet ribbon pattern that helps you convert common measurements for cooking or baking. I’m always getting food on my phone when I Google this kind of info, so these towels would definitely help me keep things cleaner. You can pick them up for $9 right here. You can also check out a delicious fruit butter recipe from Saving the Season that goes with the tea towel. That sounds like the perfect thing to make for weekend breakfast at home. Amy and I are heading to Connecticut today to check out some thrift stores (I need a new armchair, fingers crossed), so I’m signing off. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend, and I’ll see you on Monday! xo, grace

What a clever idea for a tea towel. I love the flags and typography. And yes, the photos have amazing styling, making gorgeous vignettes that make me hungry for breakfast with berry muffins and tea.
Great idea! Very practical and I love that!
What a great idea! Tea towels are my favorite thing to print on, might have to try this as a DIY.
Goodness that tea towel is gorgeous!! I want one!!
Love those tea towels – thanks for introducing them to me!! Informative and pretty – Yay!!!
These towels are super cute. Great graphic quality and lovely photography too. As a transplant to Europe from SF, it sure would be great to have them with conversions to Metric as well!
