Peshtemal {review + giveaway} from The Peshtemal Shop

{review + giveaway}
Sponsored by :


Today I would love to share with you a fantastic Etsy shop based out of Mugla, Turkey that specializes in a traditional Turkish bath cloth called the Peshtemal. I received my very own and very beautiful Turquoise/White Peshtemal to try earlier this month. Besides coming in virtually every color, Peshtemals can be used for just about anything ... they're great as beach towels, swim suit cover ups, picnic blankets, bath towels, and can even provide a soft impromptu change pad for baby. 

$45.00

This summer has provided several occasions to use my Peshtemal and I could not be happier with the way it has performed as a beach towel/cover-up. The Peshtemal is super light which is great for long strolls on the beach or shoreside camping trips, these towels also absorb just as quickly as conventional terry towels (wash first to achieve this), and they dry very quickly which is a must for camping. Everyone wants to know where I got my Peshtemal and mine seems to be 'borrowed' whenever I'm not looking! I absolutely love my Peshtemal and have taken it with me on just about every outing so far this summer and used it as a beach towel after swimming, a picnic blanket at the park, even a cover-up at a beach concert. The Peshtemal comes in pretty well every color imaginable and look amazing in person, they're much too pretty to stick in a linen closet so when not in use I drape mine over an armchair in the living room. 


A Peshtemal is a fantastically affordable gift idea for any occasion including birthdays, housewarmings, or as a hostess gift. I highly recommend The Peshtemal Shop to anyone looking to revamp their linen collection or looking for linens to complete their at home spa experience.


The Pestemal Shop would love to send one lucky winner their choice of Peshtemal!
