The TODAY Show – April 1, 2019

August Table Linens was selected by Kathie Lee and Hoda for their Favorite Things on the Today Show. 

This episode was the final installment of the popular Favorite Things series because it was Kathie Lee’s last week on the show, so the two co-hosts joined together for one last session, showcasing the best products they and their staff could find.

On the TODAY website, they reported,  “We love every one of these linens from August Table. With tons of patterns, colors and styles, there's something for everyone. Whether you're looking to add colorful details with a new kitchen towel or need a tablecloth to give your dining room a whole new look, there's a pick for you.”

About August Table

Over the centuries, artisans from India passed down the art of block-printing fabrics.  They use natural dyes with one-of-a-kind patterns.

Here at August Table, we’ve partnered with Indian artists to bring you sensational handcrafted pieces on eco-friendly, 100% mill-made cotton to create gracious tables in your own homes.

August Table was founded to inspire meals that include beautiful linens as feasts for the eyes, meaningful conversations, and connections with loved ones. Pulling from our southern roots and the gracious living of by-gone eras, we want to encourage you to keep things simple, fresh, and beautiful with the hope of bringing more joy, more love, and more laughter to your table. At August Table, function meets fabulous.

We offer napkins, tablecloths, dish towels and scarves.
