I need new towels. I have had my current Country Road bath sheets, which I love, since I got them as an engagement present 15 years ago - they outlasted the marriage and as XH hates a big towel I got them. I then bought the kids CR when the oldest was about 4 and they’re still going now she is 12. At the time I bought them they were still Australian made - it finished up in the year or two after. The Aus made and good quality were both factors in choosing CR for the kids. Now they are all starting to get a bit ratty around the edges and we figure new house, new towels! I’ve looked at the CR website but don’t love what they have on offer at the moment. I would have liked Australian made but the only place I can find, Rialto Linen, is out of stock on any nice colours! So if you have towels you love tell me about them please.

There’s almost nothing that’s Australian made unfortunately. I’ve bought a couple of different lots of towels in the last couple of years. The Sheridan ones (they’re the quick dry ones) are ok (and the quick dry aspect is really good) but they shed a lot and I suspect they’ll have a short ish shelf life. I also bought a pair of Private Collection towels from Peters of Kensington (mea culpa) and they’re fantastic. Really thick and hard wearing. Sorry, I can’t remember what the actual range was though.

I am a hoopy frood who knows where they are? I have a few lovely thick bright yellow ones from IKEA. Every other towel (mostly yellow, but all smaller and a bit raspier) seems to be a bit crap in comparison. Anyone who can recommend yellow towels (to go with the bathroom), all info gratefully accepted!

Aldi has organic bath towels on sale next Wednesday. https://www.aldi.com.au/en/special-buys/special-buys-wed-23-june/wednesday-detail-wk25/ps/p/organic-cotton-bath-towel-2/ I haven’t bought new towels for a long long time. I have Canningvale ones still going strong, and some DriGlo ones I think My favourites ones are some big ones from Target but that was probably from before when DD was born, so I have no idea what their current range is like. Do you like soft and fluffy towels or hard and crunchy towels?

I bought some that I like from Adairs, they had some really good colours at the time. It was hard to choose. No problems with them. They have good sales from time to time.

We’ve got canningvale ones. But they’re really big and need washing more often than the smaller ones. (We’re not winning any house proud prizes here, so extra washing bothers me). I think they’re fluffier, so they dont dry between showers, so they smell more… but they are lovely and soft.

Tell me about your towels
