Piggies Swedish Dishcloth Three Bluebirds Swedish Dishcloths

A Message…

Our days are full of messy little moments. The coffee we spilled rushing to work, the crumbs left from the family breakfast, the cup of milk that slipped out of little hands or the sauce that dripped on the stove top as we made dinner. Over the years, we’ve learned it’s best to not make a big thing of the little messes, and sometimes what seem like the smallest helpers, can make the biggest impact.

For this, these Swedish dishcloths have become staples in our kitchens. From cleaning the dishes, to wiping the counters, to scrubbing appliances, a Swedish dishcloth is always close by. What’s even better? Their artful designs add that bit of joy to everyday tasks and offer a responsible alternative to paper towels (17 rolls of them!), helping sustain God’s beautiful, green Earth. So make a mess, and let these little helpers do the rest.
