Know of anyone moving house at the moment? Chances are yes. Since the property market has opened up again after the lockdowns the shift from a buyer to seller market has been deafening. The houses can’t come quick enough!
Yes, moving house is stressful but the most exciting part of house buying, and what makes it all worth it for me, is furnishing. Everyone wants to be able to put their stamp on their home, their haven, creating a luxurious serenity to come back to and unwind in after a long day.
A huge part of that for me is home textiles: bedding, duvets, pillows, towels are the finishing touches that can really change a home from practical to your own personal 5* luxury. I am very particular with my home textiles. My mum has always taught me that those are the things worth spending more money on for the quality. So, when The Towel Shop kindly gifted me some Bamboo Towels to try out I was delighted!
My perfect evening goes something like this: come home and run a hot bubble bath, set up some candles, put a face mask on and relax. But my relaxing doesn’t stop at the bath and for me, having fresh, clean, fluffy towels that almost give you a hug is a part of that perfect evening. No really, there is nothing worse than a damp, scratchy, not-quite-big-enough, towel!
My Bamboo Towels from The Towel Shop are white to match my home colour scheme but also because white towels always remind me of a hotel, and remember we are aiming for our personal 5* luxury experience.
In the 6 Piece 700GSM Bamboo Towel Set you get 2 Face Cloths, 2 Hand Towels, 2 Bath Towels so much to my partner’s joy he got to test out the towels too – he is an even tougher critic when it comes to towels. As with every home textile it's important to wash them first before skin contact to avoid any potential dust, chemicals or bacteria that could be lurking. Thankfully, The Towel Shop Bamboo Towels are machine washable. I followed the instructions on the website and washed them on a normal 40º cycle which was perfect (note that on the towel itself it is advised to hand wash however I would not advise this for any towels).
When it comes to using the towels, well, they are absolutely as described. Fluffy, luxurious and absorbent which is often difficult to find with fluffy towels. I did feel as though momentarily I was not in my bathroom but in a Hilton hotel. The wicking effect that bamboo towels are known for makes them up to 3 times more absorbent than cotton towels alone. Bamboo towels have a soft and fluffy texture unrivaled by other towels allowing you to have the softest most luxurious experience possible. Bamboo Towels are also anti-fungal, and the quick drying effect of these towels allows you to use them multiple times between washes without the risk of them smelling or becoming unhygienic which is an absolute dream for me and removes all of my towel pet hates!
I can’t wait to have guests over and show off my very own 5* luxurious and pampering experience.
Bamboo is one of the most eco-friendly and sustainable sources of fibre in the world. Growing at around 2 feet per day means it is an incredibly sustainable and efficient producer of fibers, contributing to conservation efforts and helping tackle deforestation. Voucher Shares is proud to support conservation efforts around the world in giving the World Land Trust Charity 5% of our profits! You can find out more about our sustainability values on our Sustainabilty page.
These towels are 50% Bamboo and 50% cotton, The Towel Shop selects only the finest and highest quality cotton and bamboo on the market. Which ensures that they produce a better quality product that stays soft and fluffy for longer, meaning you can use them time and time again, outlasting other towels from retailers and in turn producing waste.
GSM stands for Grams per Square Meter and is the weight/density of the Bamboo Towel. A higher GSM rating of around 500 to 600gsm indicates a thicker, denser Bamboo Towel which will be more durable and longer lasting than towels with a lower GSM rating. As tempting as it may be to buy cheaper towels of lower quality, your towels will quickly begin to deteriorate through washing and use. Our Bamboo Towels will stand the test of time, use and washes in order to give you the most luxurious experience available.
So, whether you are looking for hotel quality, luxurious sustainable towels, or you just want to show off to your house guests, The Towel Shop’s Bamboo Towels come very highly recommended by me! You don’t need to compromise on sustainability when it comes to luxury in your home.
I would also recommend browsing The Towel Shop’s, bedding, duvets and bath robes which look lovely too. This brand is also used by the hospitality industry all over the country so if it’s good enough for the top hotels and affordable then it's a no brainer for your home.
