Uses for Old Tablecloths

RE: Uses for Old Tablecloths Post By Terri (Guest Post) (09/24/2008) I make tote bags to take to the grocery store, and laundry bags out of my old tablecloths. Cut the stained sections up for dust cloths.

Be sure they are clean and in plastic to stay clean and dry. Put under the tires if you get stuck in ice or snow. To keep you warmer if you get stuck but always put snacks and water in the car before going out in the bad weather. Keep blanket flares etc.. So many things to do with un-used items.

The beautiful early flowers in the spring.....and also those last brilliant mums in the fall can be protected by covering them in the evening with old tablecloths, sheets, and blankets. Just remove them the next morning and you'll enjoy your flowers for many more days! Our TV weatherman always warns us when this may occur.

Unlike newspapers or towels, they have a alyer to kep the dye from bleeding through.

We have also used it as a dropcloth.

Last winter we used some as a mat for our dogs to sleep on at night Report Spam or Abuse RE: Uses for Old Tablecloths Post by calnorth (76) | (02/07/2005) Contact You can also use them as drop cloths for painting and crafts.
