Make Your Kitchen More Attractive & Functional with the Right Kitchen Linens

Your kitchen linens should enhance your kitchen décor, but they also have a job to do. Kitchen towels, for example, come in different materials suitable for different tasks. Cotton tea towels provide excellent water absorption for hand-drying dishes. Cotton tea towels with a terrycloth weave are even more absorbent, which makes them great for sopping up spills. Linen dish towels are less absorbent, but they don’t leave any lint or fluff behind either. Cotton is also durable which makes it a good material for dish cloths. Look for a waffle texture for easier removal of food debris. You’ll want a set of potholders for moving items on your cooktop, and a good pair of heat-resistant oven mitts for working inside your stove. A kitchen apron will protect your clothes from splashes and grease pops.

Vinyl tablecloths are great for family meals as they allow for easy wiping and cleaning. If company’s coming you may want a linen tablecloth too. It has a more relaxed drape and a refined look. You’ll also want placemats that complement your tablecloth and dinner napkins.
