Re: Cloth Napkins
I pick them up when I find them on clearance.
Also I look for them at those discount style stores - like Tuesday Morning or there is a pottery one here (forget the name offhand) & them there.

Re: Cloth Napkins
My MIL keeps giving me towel sets with finger towels. I use the finger towels as napkins.

Re: Cloth Napkins
One friend bought the bulk washclothes from Walmart to use as napkins. She zigzagged the edges with a different color of thread for each person, and they use the for days, tossing them in the wash when they are noticeably dirty.

Re: Cloth Napkins
I bought mine at Pier One about 16 years ago and we still have them. They were on clearance after Valentine's Day but they weren't Valentine napkins. Mine are 100% cotton and I certainly don't iron them. They look just fine after being folded. My littles fold the napkins.

Re: Cloth Napkins
Ha! We don't iron anything around here. Nope, nope, nope Sometimes dh will decide to iron something, but it's never been the napkins.

Re: Cloth Napkins
My iron and ironing board aren't even on the same level of the house.

Re: Cloth Napkins
My iron and ironing board are in the craft room because that is their only purpose.
