Are your towels and blankets making you fat?
Posted by JEFF MACOMBER
Microplastics have become a growing concern due to their widespread presence in the environment, food, and even the air we breathe. While many discussions focus on their impact on marine life and pollution, recent research suggests they could also be influencing human health—specifically contributing to weight gain and obesity.

Stop wearing plastic! Why Cotton Beats Synthetics: The Best Choice for Towels & Blankets
Posted by JEFF MACOMBER
Cotton is a natural, breathable, and absorbent fiber, making it ideal for towels and blankets. Unlike synthetic materials like polyester and microfiber, cotton wicks moisture, softens with use, and is gentle on the skin. It is also durable, eco-friendly, and biodegradable, while synthetic fibers contribute to microplastic pollution and often feel plasticky over time.

Why I Travel with Turkish Towels
Posted by TANYA VAUGHAN
Enjoy this guest blog post by Tanya Brothen of Travel, Upgraded. With my backpacking days well behind me, I’m now interested in comfortable, well-equipped travel. Which is why I always check a bag (yes, even for weekend trips), and why I have a list of items I refuse to travel without. One of those items is my Turkish towel from The Bali Market. “But isn’t packing a towel is a waste of valuable suitcase space. After all, aren’t towels readily available at hotels and other lodging locales?” Let me explain. I pack my own towel (usually The Bali...

Posted by GRACE DRUECKE
If you're reading this, you probably already know you’ve got a clutter problem. And you probably know you need to get it under control. But how? You’ve read loads of blogs on minimalism. You’ve tried to focus on things that “spark joy.” You’ve had yard sales and sold your junk on Facebook. You do your annual spring cleaning.

Lessons From COVID-19: Maybe It’s Time To Embrace Minimalism
Posted by GRACE DRUECKE
Anyone else sick of hearing, “these are uncertain times”? I know I am. But unfortunately, it’s true. Roughly 6 months ago, your world was turned upside-down. It seems almost surreal looking back. One day you were going about your life, sending your kids to school, going to work, going to restaurants, and shopping for groceries without a second thought. Then suddenly you were asked to stay at home. It was kind of fun at first—like unexpected snow days, in March. You had extra time to tackle a project or two around the house. You watched movies and played with your...

What’s Really Overwhelming You? How Decluttering Can Save Your Sanity
Posted by GRACE DRUECKE
You’ve probably heard the term “tipping point.” It’s a moment of catalyst. Things have slowly been building, then there’s that one moment, that final push that brings you face-to-face with the fact that something needs to change. For me, the tipping point was in 2016. I’ve written about it before. My husband got a new job and we were packing up for a big, cross-country move. I had been feeling a little stressed. But the moment I had to start packing up the house, I felt completely overwhelmed. It wasn’t the move. It was the stuff. I kept looking around...

How Many Turkish Towels Do I Need?
Posted by TANYA VAUGHAN
This exact question came up on Twitter and became a hot topic of discussion. It all started when award-winning astrophotographer and Unrelatable podcast host Abdul Dremali tweeted this adulting question: This is clearly is an important question. Because to date the tweet has over 2,000 comments. Even Target and IKEA jumped into the conversation. But a comment from Journalist Yashar Ali made the internet lose their mind. 50 towels. Dang. That's a boat load of towels. And for Yashar that's the right amount, but most would agree that's a little overkill. And if you're wondering what a bath sheet is - it's a larger bath towel....
