My in-laws have dark red towels in their bathroom which match all nicely with the decor.
They fluff like !!!!!!y though and I hate using them. I always secretly grab one of their old towels out of the airing cupboard. I haven't had the heart to tell M-in-L though!Metranil dreams of becoming a neon,You don't even take him seriously,How am I going to get to heaven?,When I'm just balanced so precariously..0 -
OH bought a set of navy blue towels in december last year. By february, I'd cut them up for him to use as handwipes when he goes fishing.
No amount of washing or tumble drying would stop the flecks of blue cotton littering our bathroom surfaces.0 -

Never fails to fascinate me when I see different coloured tumble fluff......it's the little things :rotfl: Some people see the glass half full, others see the glass half empty - the enlightened are simply grateful to have a glass

Ditto! All the different colour fluff stripes remind on of those ornaments you used to be able to buy at the seaside, the little glass light houses filled with stripes of coloured sand.bright_side wrote: »Yep tumble dryer should solve your dilemma - oh all that lovely blue tumble fluff Never fails to fascinate me when I see different coloured tumble fluff......it's the little things :rotfl: 0 -

This goes to show how stingy I can be - that sounds really expensive to me!! I get mine from the pound shop! And they're really good too, I prefer slightly thinner towels as I find them more absorbant (the really thick 'super luxurious' kind do my head in), they're 'egyptian cotton' apparently, nice and soft, and most importantly - they don't fluff all over the place
Plus if you ruin one it doesn't matter as it's only a quid to replace. 0 -
I've wanted some big black fluffy towels for ages now but you've put me off. I think I'm going to just dye our well shed existing towels instead with some dylon stuff and avoid the mess 11th Heaven prizes Number 103

My black towels have been tumbled and washed to death. Marginally better but still on the "for show" rack!0
