Do you, like Emma, have shelves and shelves of favourite containers for bunches of flowers – bottles, jars, jugs, tins … anything pleasing, from small discreet medicine bottles to big fat cider flagons?

Give them a good rinse then dry them down with what else but this Autumn Flowers Tea Towel. It’s a vintage-looking tea towel that’s full of late blooming autumn beauties. But don’t be misguided by the pretty-as-a-picture looks, for this is a 100% cotton kitchen towel that will make drying all your flower containers, not to mention pots and pans and Emma Bridgewater plates, an absolute breeze.
