Odds & Ends

Colorful home textiles – made from surplus materials from industry

When factories dye yarn for textile production, an extra stock is often made just in case – but much of this yarn ends up unused. Odds & Ends textiles are designed to make full use of these scraps and create endless, unexpected color combinations.

Collections & Colors

Odds & Ends collections are produced in batches. The factory collects surplus materials and uses these colors to create a new design, which is then put into production. The precise design is just the starting point – during production, some of the residual materials are used up and replaced with similar colors.

Therefore, the images you see are an indicative representation of how the textiles look, but there will be slight variations within each batch.

Colours may vary

As these textiles are produced in small batches from surplus materials, colors may vary. However, the general color palette is always preserved, so that textiles within the same color scale can be easily combined. The product you receive may be identical to or have slight variations compared to the images on this page. The duo set consists of one textile in primarily cold tones and one in primarily warm tones.

Washing and care instructions

All Odds & Ends textiles can be washed at 30°C in the washing machine's cotton program together with similar colours. To preserve the intensity of the colors, an organic detergent is recommended for colored washing.

To extend the life of the textiles, air drying is recommended, but terrycloth products such as soft towels – especially those with a velor surface – may benefit from an occasional tumble dryer on medium heat to soften the fibers without the use of chemical fabric softeners.

If you live in an area with chalky water, you can soften both your textiles and washing machine by adding citric acid or vinegar to the rinse cycle from time to time.

Loose Threads

This product is woven with terry loops to ensure a soft and absorbent quality. Newly woven terry loops can be more prone to loose threads, so be careful with jewelry when first worn.

If a thread should come loose, never pull it! Carefully cut it off with sharp scissors – this will prevent further loose threads and will not affect the woven structure of the textiles. After the first few washes, the fibers will become more resistant to snags.

The function of beeswax in creams and salves
In homemade cosmetics, beeswax functions primarily as a thickener and an emulsifier. It helps bind oil and water together in emulsions, ensuring a stable and even consistency in your products.
 

• For salves: Beeswax provides firmness. The more wax, the firmer the salve.

• For lip balms: Ensures that the stick holds its shape and stays on the lips for long-lasting protection.

Natural care and protection
Beeswax is rich in Vitamin A, which plays a role in skin cell renewal. Additionally, the substance has natural anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties that can help soothe irritated skin, redness, and minor skin abrasions.

However, the primary benefit of beeswax is its ability to lay as a thin, protective film on the skin. This film acts as a shield against environmental influences such as frost, wind, and dry air, while simultaneously "locking" moisture inside the skin. Since the wax does not penetrate the skin or block pores, the skin can still breathe freely.

Safety and application
Although honey is advised against for infants due to the risk of botulism spores, this does not apply to cosmetic beeswax. This granulate has undergone a heating and purification process that eliminates harmful bacteria.

Beeswax is not absorbed by the human organism; upon ingestion, it simply passes through the digestive system. This makes it a safe choice in products for lips and for the care of small children, e.g., diaper balm or cold cream.

Activated carbon is a form of carbon that undergoes a special activation process that makes it extremely porous. This significantly increases the surface area of ??the coal, making it very effective at absorbing various pollutants. Activated carbon can attract and bind to harmful chemicals, toxins and unwanted odors. It is widely used in water filtration systems and other healthcare products due to its ability to purify and improve water quality. Kishu Binchotan, a traditional Japanese form of activated charcoal, is specially designed to purify drinking water and add beneficial minerals. This makes it a natural choice for those who want cleaner and healthier water without using disposable plastic filters.
