now some may say "oh Tif, how could a tea towel possibly perky up my day" and usually i would be inclined to agree, although saying that, there are so many happy tea towels out in 'tea towel world' doing a grand old job at cheering up a nest or two.
however this perfectly peachy pair of oversized tea towels are tres clever, not only do they have the ability to 'perky up' a corner of your kitchen with their pretty looks, but they are also handy dandy at reminding us of how to live life the 'dottie angel' way!
yes indeedy, a chance encounter with my granny's old english exercise book in the garage of mossy shed resulted in a 'ta da' moment of the utmost kind.
i am delighted beyond all delights, to share the 6 simple rules of dottie angel
dottie angel do's
1. do have high hopes
2. do follow the righteous and goodly path of thriftiness
3. do think you are most peachy perfect
4. do feel a little crafty at least twice a day
5. do wear your slip peeking out from below your skirt
6. do embrace all that is granny chic and give it a forever home
:: these over sized sweeties are perfectly at home doing the dishes, hanging around on your wall looking pretty or perhaps being used as material for a cushion or bag, they do not mind which, they are just happy if you are.
::if perchance you wish to make them into a laundry bag or cushion cover then please see this little 'how-to' upon my blog http://dottieangel.blogspot.com/2010/11/dottie-angel-dos-part-two.html
:: all this fabby tea towelness was made possible by two spiffy people whom i happen to be most fortunate in knowing,
first off my soul sister Debbie, whom worked terribly hard in getting these sweeties printed by a nice company in England and packaged ready for their new nests.
and secondly my buddy, the talented Fran Iannaccone from mrs eliot books http://www.etsy.com/shop/mrseliotbooks whom so very kindly took what was in my head and made the design appear! hurrah, hooray for my partners in creating this peachy pair
