Many Uses For Terry Cloth Dish Towels

RE: Many Uses For Terry Cloth Dish Towels Post by susanmajp (317) | (05/19/2007) Contact Some of these tips are really great--THANK YOU! I often think, "Wow, why didn't I think of that." I cut up an old hand towel into 6 or 8 pieces and hem the raw edges. Some go into a container with diluted fabric softener for home-made dryer sheets. Others go into another container for home-made sanitizer sheets, which are great for fast clean-ups in the kitchen or bathroom. All get rewashed and reused when needed. They've lasted for years.

Now I don't get a wet tummy from leaning into the sink when washing dishes and I have a handy towel to wipe hands on when cooking or baking. When it wears out, rip it off and sew a new prewashed one on RE: Many Uses For Terry Cloth Dish Towels Post By eggamuffin (Guest Post) (05/16/2007) I have sewn cloth dish towels into plastic bag holders. Just take one big dish towel and at both ends sew in elastic. Then fold dishtowel in half lengthwise and sew up the seam. Sew a ribbon loop for hanging on a nail. Stuff your holder with plastic bags and pull out from either end.

We have lots of kids and grandkids and these pillows are great. When soiled just take off and wash. So easy and so nice.
