Colourful home textiles made from industry leftovers!

When factories dye yarns to weave textiles, they make some extra, just in case. But often, those leftovers go unused. Odds & Ends is designed to make the most of these colourful remainders, turning them into endless unexpected colour combinations.

Odette’s Day at the Beach
This special beach towel is the third collaboration between odds&ends, designed by Foekje Fleur and artist Odette Muijsers. Sharing a love for colour and nostalgia, they created a playful design for all ages. The towel tells the story of an endless summer day at the beach. Full of the highlights that were as big for us as they are for children today. Foekje and Odette carefully selected the colours from leftover yarn so you can wrap yourself in sweet memories wherever you are.

Wake up! Wake up! We are going to the beach! Put on your bikini, grab a towel and slippers, your favorite beach snackies and let’s go!

Beach Towel
Our 80 x 160 cm beach towel is terry-woven on a jacquard loom and made from extra heavy 600 gms cotton. It’s soft, absorbent, and ideal for endless summer days by the pool or sea. Please note the size is slightly smaller than edition #10, so it’s easier to carry to the beach ;).

Care Instructions
All Odds & Ends textiles can be washed at 60°C on a cotton programme with similar colours. For a longer life, we recommend washing at 30°C. An organic, colour-safe detergent can help keep the colours looking bright, while line drying can help your textiles last even longer.

For terry products, especially those with a velour finish, occasional tumble drying at medium heat can help keep them soft without the need for fabric softener. If you live in an area with hard water, a little citric acid or vinegar in the rinse can help soften both the water and your towels.

Snags
Some Odds & Ends products are woven with terry loops to give them that soft, absorbent texture. When new, these loops can be a little more prone to snagging, so watch out for jewellery during the first few uses.

If a snag happens, don’t worry. Simply cut it off with a pair of sharp scissors. Whatever you do, don’t pull it! Cutting the snag prevents it from running further and won’t damage the woven structure. With time and use, the fibres become less prone to snagging.

Production
Odds & Ends textiles are made in Portugal using 100% cotton industry remainders. These are small quantities of yarn left over from other textile productions. Instead of going to waste, they get a second life as something useful and beautiful.

Colours
Odds & Ends towels are made in small batches using surplus industry yarns, so colours can vary from one batch to another. We keep the overall palette consistent, so pieces within the same colour family still work well together. Your towel may look slightly different from the one in the photos, but the overall colour and feel will remain the same.
