Natural fabrics derived from cotton and linen are both breathable, durable, eco-friendly and relatively soft. So, where do the differences lie between these materials?
First of all, what is cotton? Cotton is a ‘staple fiber’ produced from the cotton plant. The usable material is extracted from the inside of the cotton boll, and is made from different lengths of material. Cotton is recognized for being soft, fluffy and durable. It is often used in clothing such as fleeces for warmth. What is linen? Linen is a very strong, lightweight fabric that is made from the flax plant. It is a naturally-occurring fiber just like cotton, but can be trickier to harvest into fabric as it’s harder to weave. Linen is often used for items like towels, bedding and tablecloths.

We are very excited to be starting a new year because that means we are getting ready to break some new goals! We don't want to give away too much but here's a little sneak peek of what we have in store for 2022...
We've got a newcomer joining the DW Team and we are very excited! They'll be making their appearance soon and we can't wait to bring them along for the ride. We have our 2nd annual golf tournament coming up on May 14th at Springfield Golf Course in Chandler, AZ. Details are still being ironed out but this is another exciting event that will give back to the community. If you haven't heard, we are nearing completion on our newest luxury custom home in Paradise Valley. 6220 E Bret Hills Drive is a 5 bed, 5.5 bath home with a guest casita attached and will be ready to sell within the next couple of weeks. We'll post updates on our social media pages as well as our Paradise Valley homes page. The DW Team has plenty of more things to look forward to in 2022 but we wanted to share the most recent and upcoming news with everyone! We hope to continue to bring great quality service to our clients and make a difference in our community by hosting events that bring awareness to certain causes and organizations.
