“ Bakers Cloths ”

These oven cloths were given to my husband and I over 30 years ago in New Zealand. My husband is a baker, hence the stains on the cloths, not from bread mind you. We still use these constantly, you can't buy good old oven cloths like this anymore.

I love reading the stories behind the photo!

I love the story behind these oven cloths. I wonder if maybe posed against some freshly baked bread might have really helped to bring them to life. But you can clearly see they are well used which adds to their charm.

I love the depth in the cloth 0nce I viewed it larger.

Did you try other angles? I feel they could have been more expressive with either a better angle or lighting.

They tell a great story and are amazingly white for 30 years old.
