Thinking about throwing a dinner party? When a party is thrown usually we pull out or purchase a paper tablecloth and use a stack of paper napkins. The reason is that these products are disposable. The tablecloth may have a theme or pattern on it but the napkins are usually the bulk package at the grocery store.
One way of making the get-together more festive and fancy is to use cloth napkins and table covers. MYdrap is a new name brand product available online for purchase. These table linens are eco-friendly and will make your party GO GREEN!
They are made from 100% cotton. This line is recyclable, reusable – washable and even biodegradable. This is something new and unheard of, right? Well not anymore. MYdrap has a line that includes napkins, tablecloths, cocktail napkins, coasters, table runners and placemats. They come in 19 gorgeous colors and four beautiful gingham patterns.
One other unique feature is that this line comes in every size that you would want for your entertaining needs. MYdrap came out with the best way to package these cloth items. It is easy for them to ship to you as well as making it easy to store them in your cupboards, pantry or kitchen drawers. Each set comes on a roll. All you have to do is count the number of; let’s say napkins that are needed and tear along the perforation marks and store the roll for future use. Watch the video below and see for yourself how Mydrap can change the way you dress your dinner table.

Paper is recyclable and biodegradable, more so than cotton. (:
What a great idea!. Can be used inside and outside too, I bet.
Wonderful Beverly! Thank you for this great tip and website!
Great advice, thanks!
I love this article, Beverly, such a great idea. Go green! Personally, I have always loved setting my tables with cloth and china, especially if it is to entertain a small group. But having a larger party is another story. I think the idea of Mydrap is fantastic!

Going green is the way to go, and Mydrap sounds like the company that will take you there. Thanks for letting us know about them.
Great idea and thank you for listing the company to get these neat items from. I will definitely check out that site today! In case you haven't seen my other comment yet, I have a new topic please check it out:http://www.examiner.com/city-buzz-in-columbia/dawn-gagnon
Great article Beverly. I try to use cloth as well instead of paper.
Hi Bev: What a great idea! Very well written, and I love the Eco-green idea of washable tableware and napkins would look richer too!
Great article! good tips. Thank you for the wealth of ideas you share.
Hi Beverly, love the information on the eco-friendly napkins, I will have to look into these. Unfortunately I usually use paper since we usually hold functions that are less formal. Re-usable napkins are the way to go, great article!

I love this...cloth napkins are so lovely. Honestly, I would love if parents would teach their little ones to use any kind of napkin...this would be a great post on twittermoms.com. Let us all pass this along.
Great link. Thanks for the info. BTW the comment by Joseph Nagy misses the point. It takes energy to manufacture and recycle paper napkins and they are not typically recycled after they are used. Cloth napkins must be laundered but the savings come because new ones do not need to be manufactured to replace the old ones after every use.
Guilt free party ideas. Thank you
A party that is eco friendly will please everyone. Your helpful reporting is appreciated.
I enjoy using my cloth napkins and tablecloths. It's so suprising how people are afraid to use them when they come over to dinner. I also use placemate and 'charger plates' during the holidays ;) Thanks for hanging in there Beverly.
