Who wouldn't wish to wash their wares with such a whimsical wonder? An unbleached, 100% organic cotton tea towel is printed with 38 samples of tongue tickling text, ranging from classics ("Round and round the rugged rock the ragged rascal ran"), to childhood favorites (Peter Piper makes an appearance), to cheeky new inventions. It makes doing the dishes delightfully delicious. Made and printed in the UK.

Candace chose this terrific tea towl, but could we carry cloths with such teasing tongue twisters? (Say that 10 times fast!) We love the phrases, the typography, and the colors. And, of course, the overall creativity. What do you love most about this potential uncommon good?

Where's the price?? If it's free I'll take it! ;P

Free! Well. Even for free I wouldn't take it. It's awful.

I'm sure this isn't free, but I think it's a fun idea on a very basic product. Price would determine if I would buy it.

Hello, Voters! We've intentionally left the prices out this week for a few reasons. Since the items haven't been added to our assortment yet, we're still working out the pricing. We've noticed that many of the comments in our community voting app focus too much on on price (when sometimes the price isn't quite accurate.) We're looking for design-focused feedback, the kind that tells us whether a product is truly uncommon enough to be an uncommon good. Leaving our the price allows voters to think more about the actual design and less about the price. It also gives you the opportunity to tell us what you think a product is worth. It encourages voters to read the product story, consider the materials, and make a judgement that isn't based on a dollar sign. We can't wait to read the comments on this latest batch of entries. Thanks for voting!

I do like the colors and different typography, but it's just not worth it. I don't really see many people who would like this in their home.

No price listed - not enough information.

Just not my thing. The colors are a bit harsh as well.

I'm a sucker for a good looking tea towel and I like this tea towel a lot...it's funny as hell. I hope it comes in other colors (not red white and blue).

Would be great as a bar towel for my son-in-law. A fun way to measure when to cut people off.

I am obsessed with text accessories for the home right now. And kitchen towels have the liberty to be a bit corky. I am all in!

I do not think colors wouldn't appeal to a large audience and the product just isn't "uncommon" enough

Fun bridal shower gift! Not crazy about the colors though...

i think it's cute and funky and fun, but would like some neutral colors as well as maybe colors from the 70's. i might even add something like this to my guest bath as a hand towel. a great place for reading!

I love the colors and would probably pay around $20 for it. It is also a very nice material and is made in the UK, both pros.

Maybe you could put a price range on items because price plays a huge part in deciding if you like something or not. Quality of materials and an items uniqueness are important to consider, but if the item is going to cost an arm and a leg I'm not going to buy it just because it's clever.

As a designer and lover of typography, I hate the fonts used!

I would buy it only for a bar towel only IF it were cheap enough.

What's the point? Makes no sense to me.

I know that voting is complete, but I had to add my comment. When making gift baskets I often look for cute, unique saying on dish towels. More times than not, I end up designing my own with cute sayings on them. This is a great idea!

Want!

I really like this but wish there were more colro choices.
