Sweet Nature Designs Scarf: A Review

Sweet Nature Designs Summer Cotton Scarf - Lavender with Brown Branches

The first time I spotted Beth Tobey's Etsy shop Sweet Nature Designs I was smitten. There are great printed products from kitchen towels to bags as well as paintings and jewellery. I was beyond excited when Beth offered to send me one of her cotton summer scarves to review. Winter or summer, I think scarves really add something to an outfit. The package from Sweet Nature Designs came beautifully wrapped and inside was a very pretty, lightweight lavender scarf printed with fetching branches.

Because the cotton of the scarf is so lightweight I've been wearing it all summer. The scarf is the perfect length and weight to wrap in all different fashions and, although thin, it helps when the AC in my office reaches temperatures that only keep penguins comfortable. I've received tons of compliments on my Sweet Nature Designs scarf and was happy to find that it washes well with no damage to the printed branches.

Green Cotton Summer Scarf with Silver Flowers

The scarves are 100% cotton (93" x 16" or 236 cm x 41 cm) with raw edges for the perfect casual look. Sweet Nature offers the style in a range of colours and designs to compliment every taste and outfit.

Orange Life Floursack Kitchen Towel

I also have my eye on the shop's tea towels, each of which is printed with a different quote or design.

Gray Cotton Beach Bag with Branches

Sweet Nature Designs' cotton beach bags are perfect for toting around

everything you need every day and, of course, to the beach of pool.

Life is Pretty Cool Green Linen Tea Towel

If you would like a chance to win your own Sweet Nature Designs scarf then check back next week for a great giveaway! In the meantime head over to Beth's shop to nab one of her fab items for yourself.

I received a Summer Scarf from Sweet Nature Designs to facilitate this review.
