Hello and Happy New Year!  We hope that all of you have had a wonderful holiday season full of peace and love.  Holidays can be as stressful as they are delightful, and while it may feel a bit melancholy to take down that last ornament, it’s always a bit of a relief to return to life as “normal”.  We had a terrific holiday season here in the Amanda Klein Co. studio and we are SO grateful to all of our customers.  We could not realize this dream without each of you and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.  If you are curious as to what we have been up to (besides packing and shipping your orders), then please read on!

Amanda Klein Co. Studio + Warehouse Ribbon Cutting

In order for any business to grow, the people behind that business have to be willing to take some calculated risks.  We have big dreams in mind for where Amanda Klein Co. will go and what we can do for our community.  With that in mind, we are looking to make 2023 a year to remember. That means NEW products, NEW designs, and NEW relationships.  Today, we’re here to announce the release of our newest towel designs!  Starting on January 24th, we will offer additional designs with the same great quality as our previous towels.  What makes our new towels so different?  Fruits!  Veggies!  Magnolias!  Not to mention these towels will feature edge-to-edge printing as well as some with full background color.  What better way to beat the winter blues than by adding some color to your life?  Our personal favorite is the garden veggie design, featuring a variety of vegetables, including a southern favorite - okra! The Garden Vegetable design was inspired by Amanda's grandmother (who is about to turn 100!) and her love for gardening.

Speaking of the New Year, did you know that January 22nd starts the beginning of the Lunar New Year celebrations?  Tied to the Lunar calendar, Lunar New Year is one of the most important celebrations of the year among East and Southeast Asian cultures, including Chinese, Vietnamese, and Korean communities, but is also celebrated throughout the world.  Each year, the Lunar calendar is represented by one of the 12 zodiac animals and this year just so happens to be the Year of the Rabbit!  We are thrilled to celebrate our own Rabbit, beautifully rendered in pastel watercolors, available in prints and notecards.  This little bunny is the perfect way to celebrate Lunar New Year, Easter, or just the approaching arrival of Spring in our part of the world.

Stay tuned to this space for more announcements about new products coming in 2023!  We are so happy to be on this journey and we can’t thank you all enough for your continued support.


With love,


Amanda, Tori, and April

A friend just gave me a box of you note cards with the floral map of Michigan. They are beautiful . Could you possibly put this print on the flour sack towels. They would make wonderful gifts.

Thanks,
Scarlett

I’m a big fan and buy your products as gifts and for myself. Will the year of the rabbit be available in a flour sac towel? Can I purchase locally in Birmingham? Thank you! Kelly

— Kelly Andrews

Excited with the preview of new products! Especially what looks like plastic plates (I’d use to serve cookies or canapés on). A GREAT gift idea! And will the pillows have print on both sides (the sample hints on a single large on one side, and repeated pattern on the flip.) The Lobster would be a great gift for my best friend, so far away (from Texas) in New Hampshire on the coast. So many ideas!

I love the Veggie towel for my sister, but am a strawberry girl myself. You’ve got me covered!

Hoppy new year! (Not a typ-o. Lol)

How soon can we order the fruit and veggies stuff?
Registered Dietitian Day is March 8th this year and I’m buying gifts for my team.
