"Ulrich Simpson, founder of Mi Cocina, a line of denim kitchen accessories based in San Francisco, says he is accustomed to the peaks and valleys of business after being featured by Oprah, Martha Stewart and others over the years. “When someone gives you an accolade, sales grow exponentially, and then they go down. So because I was used to that, I said let’s keep our heads down and do what we do best."

"Created by a designer who wanted something functional yet fashionable to entertain in, this one-size-fits-all denim number has roomy pockets and comes in two washes."

“The beauty of denim is the wabi-sabi element of it,” Ubi says. “Every piece is different.” Setting the table with denim in different shades—dark napkins, printed place mats, and a lighter tablecloth—gives the table character and dimension. "

"Denim lovers can now take it to the table with these stylish, laser-printed textiles from San Franscisco-based brand Mi Cocina. They're available in a variety of patterns including chevron, herringbone and ombre, as well as solid shades of blue."
