inspired by the weird traits or ocd thread, where someone posted that they don't like to see used napkins on the table because they look like tissues. That made me think it must be a paper napkin. I use cotton napkins and, surprisingly because I don't iron very much, I iron them after washing. Does anyone else do this?
It was environmentally inspired initially — less waste. Also cheaper so less money waste. Approximately half of them I've acquired at charity shops and they are the lovely old cotton damask type. Many of the others came from an aunt who died two years ago. Nobody else wanted them.
I was using linen and cotton tablecloths but found I was washing and ironing them everyday!!!!! Linen tablecloths are hell to iron. Great aunt in-law who embroidered them (a) lived alone and never had kids, and (b) sent them to be professionally laundered. But cloth napkins are worth the effort.Will Replacing School Uniforms With Tracksuits......
