A new homewares brand has started up in Hobart: smith+purton. We design, screenprint and make (okay, we outsource the making to someone who knows what she is doing with a sewing machine!) funky homewares such as tea towels, cushions, textile wall banners and crafter's fat quarters, with children's and adults' aprons, and new cushion and fat quarter designs to come later this month! So far all the fabric used is hemp-organic cotton or hemp-cotton denim, and it's all printed with water-based, solvent-free inks, so you can rest assured it's a clean process resulting in a safe (nevermind durable, original and desirable!) product! We also post on our facebook page and our store blog a new illustration each Monday, to keep things interesting. Here is this week's offering:

Here's a stack of our tea towels, folded and ready for packaging and shipping. Oh, we'll ship to anywhere in Australia for free too!

Here is one of our hemp-organic cotton tea towels, Kitchen City, also available in black, for $25, or as a pre-hung wall banner in red or black for $39.

Here are our yardage print Kitchen Scribble tea towels, currently on sale for $20 each!

One of our zingy hemp-organic cotton cushions, orange Zigzag.

So here we are. And we have one last offering. If you sign up for our mailing list before this Friday, 17 August, you'll go in the draw to win your choice of one of our tea towels, shipped free to wherever you are in the world! Sweet!
