People who buy beautiful things for themselves aren't just being showy or extravagant. Because nice acquisitions need to be cared for, they stimulate a sense of responsibility in their owners. People who buy things that need care like to be responsible for them. That is why personalized, customized beach towels are always a good gift for yourself and for people who mean something to you. They are a pleasure to own, a pleasure to use and a good inspiration to be attentive to yourself and to your things.
Customized beach towels may be printed or embroidered. However, between the two ways of decorating beach towels, embroidered is a much safer and longer lasting way to put images and patterns on a beach towel. Embroidered designs may be modern geometric patterns, a sprinkling of dainty flowers, avatars and cartoons, logos, mottos and even adverts. To get a better idea of the possibilities, you should take the time to drop in to the website of a company offering custom embroidery. You will be amazed at the artistry with which delicate details are embroidered into the fabrics. Embroidered customized beach towels may not have the same color possibilities and fine shaping as painted ones but they look more authentic and sophisticated. Embroidered beach towels are definitely stand-outs and conversation pieces anywhere.
On the other hand, finer images are possible with printed beach towels. And with the technology of fiber reactive dyes, printed designs stay color-fast and bright for a long time. Manufacturers of fiber reactive dyes also make it a point to mix them from organic ingredients, thus to minimize or eliminate the possibility of chemical irritants getting into the skin. The molecules of these dyes lock in with the molecules of the fabric on which they are painted hence the longer-lasting sheen and hues.
So before buying printed or hand-painted customized beach towels, ask the vendor if the dyes used are FR dyes. Better still, you might want to do research on the Internet on beach towel manufacturers and which of them make it a point to use FR dyes when painting their products. In this way, you know what brands you have to look for in painted or printed towels. You may also visit the many websites which offer an astonishing variety of painted or printed designs on customized beach towels. Look for tropical skies and brilliant gold suns, catchy words finely painted in graceful shaded fonts, funny Disney characters, brightly colored abstract designs...and if you don't see your self in a sexy bathing suit, you can just have them custom paint that for you too!
Finally, when looking for customized beach towels, go for cotton. Cotton is airier than synthetic fibers because it has a higher thread count and can trap more air between its fibers. Consequently, it is also softer to the touch. Besides, you don't run the risk of contaminating your skin with chemical residues that are characteristic of most synthetic fibers. Remember, chemical reactions accelerate under the heat of the sun. Your pores are also more open under heat and if you are sweating. Therefore, chemical contaminants, if they are present, are more likely to get in under you skin on a sunny beach, or while lounging by the pool under the bright sun.
