Two great things are happening to us and they both involve cloth napkins; how is this possible?
Since you won�t need to buy as many linen napkins as you will inevitably go through paper towels, one family set of linen napkins will pay for itself in just a few sets of paper towels or decorative paper napkins, and will continue to reward you this way during their lifetime.Linen napkins are super eco-friendly. The process of making linen from flax is generally an organic, soil safe practice. The best part is that you would never throw away a linen napkin, and they last for many years, if not decades, if not centuries. With the stain fighting, environmentally friendly detergents we have now, all we have to do is pop the cloth napkins into the washer and they are as good as new even if they were coloured with sauce.According to the March 2009 Sensis Consumer report, Australia has been spending more time at the dinner table than eating out. Almost 80 percent of meals are now being cooked at home, and eaten at home at least six days out of the week. This compares vastly to US consumers who only eat around 36 percent of meals at home. Meals cooked at home are much less expensive than comparable meals eaten out, and cheap fast food meals are being abandoned for high quality, healthy food.1) In a world that has become dominated by cheap fast food chains, we�ve begun a revolution to reclaim dinner, the dining room table, real plates, real silverware, real napkins and other real dining room accessories. Say so long to the coffee table at dinnertime and hello to stylish and functional dining room decor! 2) Everyone is looking for new ways to go green and find eco-friendly living solutions; paper towels and paper napkins are out, linen napkins are in.Linen napkins are so highly absorbent that you would go through more non-attractive paper towels than you would one beautiful linen napkin for a messy child.Additionally, by moving dinner away from the TV and to the dining room table, our families are getting in quality conversations, which helps parents get to know the lives of their children a little better while also reducing the risk of wanting to stay glued to the TV for long hours after dinner. Dining room d�cor is important in making this room a welcoming and fun environment for the whole family and friends. Because we are spending more time here, we are now seeing more use of colourful and stylish tablecloths topped by table runners, placemats, and yes, linen napkins!
Since you won�t need to buy as many linen napkins as you will inevitably go through paper towels, one family set of linen napkins will pay for itself in just a few sets of paper towels or decorative paper napkins, and will continue to reward you this way during their lifetime.
