My friend is always on the lookout for unique trinkets and decorations for her home. She loves it when she finds something she thinks no one else has, which is not an easy thing to do. Part of the reason she’s able to find unique treasures is because she travels so much. She’s also big on flea market finds and even knows the locations of the best little shops around the city. But I was actually able to surprise her recently when I gave her a purple Handmade Shibori Square Tablecloth for her birthday.

I found this tablecloth online – it actually comes in 8 custom colors, but I chose purple because it’s her favorite. You never know what pattern you’re going to get, so each one is a one-of-a-kind purchase. It’s handmade in the USA of 100% washable cotton with couch stitch top embroidery. What’s even better is that they dye the fabric naturally by using flowers, berries, and vegetables. My friend was thrilled with the gift and quite proud of me for finding such unique kitchen decor. I told her that I guess her treasure-hunting skills have worn off on me!
