A Keepsake to Remember: Eric’s 90th on Organic Cotton Tea Towels

At Expressions Tea Towels Australia, we believe the most meaningful gifts are those that tell a story. Recently, our General Manager Aimee celebrated her Grandfather-in-law Eric’s 90th birthday in a way that beautifully captured the essence of family, memory and sustainability, with a custom printed tea towel made from organic cotton.

A Milestone Celebrated, the Eco-Friendly Way

Using a striking black and white portrait of Eric taken when he was just 20 years old, Aimee created a unique keepsake by printing the image onto our white organic cotton tea towels. These were lovingly gifted to close friends and family during a week-long celebration, serving as a tangible memory of a life well-lived.

Eric was thrilled with the result, proudly posing for photos with his great-grandson Isaak while holding the commemorative towel. It was more than just a gift, it was a connection between generations, thoughtfully preserved in cotton and ink.
