Many families use paper towels for drying nowadays. But not only do they create so much waste, but they might also contain harmful chemicals. A better alternative is to use a natural cotton towel; our Saf towel is made with 100% Turkish cotton (really soft), fast-drying, safe, and lasting. ✨

Do you know that a single handloom can produce only 16 meters of our Saf towel per day?

Hand tied tassels. 💚

Decided to use matching-color threads for the labels. What do you think? 🤓 #slowcrafting

Antioch (modern-day Antakya) was hit by a 7.8 earthquake three years ago. Centuries of craftsmanship and knowledge are part of the culture there. It was devastating for a region with such rich history. At the time, we witnessed one of the most powerful and beautiful things: human resilience and kindness. It has stuck with us ever since. That is when Saf was born. With each purchase, you are supporting one more person to keep doing what they genuinely love. 💚 #resilience #kindness #beauty #craftsmanship #art

Ancient beauty secrets:) 💚

Summer is here, time to hit the beach with our Saf towel. ⛱️☀️

Our Saf towel, paired with Aleppo soap, makes a wonderful companion for a hammam experience. Did you know that you can enjoy a hammam at home? Hammam is a traditional ritual to relax the body and mind. It symbolizes the cleanliness of the body and the purity of the soul. It is part of many people’s social life. 💚

Testing @Plebeian Market The experience so far has been really smooth, sharing some of the things we love: 1. The option to set the fix price in Fiat or Bitcoin, yet showing both. 2. The flexibility when it comes to setting the shipping cost. 3. The listing products will be auto-synced to other markets. 😯 The only issue we have found so far is how to get auto-notifications for messages or orders without checking it 24/7?

Testing with @Shopstr Markets, we found two issues so far: 1. Whenever we tried to edit the shop profile, it also changed our settings in Nostr. 2. The shipping price can only set one number; however, the reality is that shipping costs to different country is different, or is there a way to set things up better in shopstr?

Some insights from being a small artisan business: Everything we have dedicated to creating Saf (so far) is less than the initial setup of an LLC. Part of this is integrating @BTCPay Server and @Rizful.com. Using this avoids the ongoing maintenance costs, the annual paperwork, and the fiat payment processing fee. Bitcoin has made it so much easier and cheaper to set up and run a business. ⚡️
