Towel Color Question Sign In/Join

Does anyone have any suggestions to find good quality towels online or in BM store in the color that would be similar to the inside of a ripe watermelon. I found some at Lands End and didn't order right away and now they are out of stock. Grr.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi CaraRose. Just wondering...what are you matching the towels to? I ask especially if you find what looks like the perfect color on-line and find out later it's off. Have you tried sources like JC Penney, Kohls, Target, Macy's and BB&B? The Company Store might be another source.

BTW, if you link us to the Land's End towels you like, it would make for somewhat of a color reference tho monitors are poor when it comes to color reading. Any idea when they'll be restocking them?

The "quality" factor is another issue. Over the years, I have found towels to pucker, shed greatly, pull, etc.. Very disappointing.

Have you considered spa white towels instead of a color? I ask because colored towels often fade over time. White towels are so crisp against colorful walls too.
