What has COVID done to me???
We really need new towels, and I've got quite a lot of JL vouchers stacked up which I can use. I really like fluffy thick towels, so think will go for their Supima cotton range, as they're a good weight. www.johnlewis.com/john-lewis-partners-plush-supima-cotton-towels/white/p5291640?size=bath-sheet#product
Now here is my dilemma. My towel regime is as such: we have one set of towels out, one that's in the wash or airing cupboard. I currently have all white towels, so that's 4 bath sheets, 4 bath towels, 4 hand towels. My children are now bigger than me, and bath towels are too small, so to replace my current towels I will need 8 bath sheets. At £34 each, we're talking not very affordable at approx £250 before hand towels.
One issue I'm having is that I use a colour depositer shampoo, and it's started staining the white towels, so I should probably get a dark colour (DD also occasionally likes to dye her hair as well). But I started buying white towels so if there was a bleach cleaning incident, they wouldn't be ruined.
So, do I go for a colour (am thinking navy for kids and forest green for adults), or do I stick with white; do I replace a full 2 sets, or stick to just replacing one set for now, and buy a second set another time (this is what I've done previously), or do I bin off the whole idea and use the vouchers for something far more exciting 😁 (I really do need towels though - ours are now stained, and the ends are quite frayed).
