I am a firm believer in the importance of having sanitary napkins. I use disposable ones most of the time, but after spending a couple months in an apartment with no kitchen sink, I have started using compostable ones. I buy them at Staples and then keep them in my laundry room. They are so easy to clean, they are great for storing leftovers, and they save me from using paper towels.
If you’re in the market for a new home, it would be wise to check out the options at the store where you’ll be buying your supplies. I like to look at the products in the store first, because I’m most likely to buy those options. I’m also able to see how clean they are compared to the other options.
If you are buying your home materials from a store, you’re in for a big surprise. A lot of these options will be made of plastic, which can be pretty dangerous when you’re in a pinch. I think the plastic ones are the best. They are hard to clean and the ones you can buy are just as cheap as paper towels. Theyre good for storing leftovers, and you get to choose the color of the fabric youre making.
I think plastic is the best option because it is both safer and cheaper to use. You can wash them in the washing machine, and theyre biodegradable. They are also recyclable. However, if you want to wash them, you can get them made out of paper.
If youre going to be having leftovers, why not use them for compost. Its the cheapest, and its biodegradable. Plus, you have the option to make your own napkins by sewing a fabric and cutting out the pattern. So instead of buying the ones that are just plastic, you have the option to make your own.
You could also just use your favorite disposable napkins and wash them in the dishwasher. Theyre plastic anyway, and theyre going to biodegrade, so you could just wash them.
This is not entirely new: I remember reading about the use of paper napkins in a magazine from two years ago, but I do have to say this is the first time I actually use those. These are the first I’ve seen made out of paper, so I think they’re a bit of a novelty.
If you have the money and a compostable container, you could make your own. I have a small box of plastic that I use for food and drinks. My friends and I would go out into the woods eating lunch and have our sandwiches out in the cold, sunny afternoons. Since we were making our own food, I think it was the perfect time to repurpose it.
I think I’ve mentioned before on a previous post that if you are making your own compost, you’ll need to use a certain composting process. This means making your own compostable napkins and maybe even making compostable cups. These are the first Ive ever seen made out of paper and will definitely be a new favorite.
If youre looking to make your own compostable napkins, you can do so much more with them than you think. For starters, you can even make the napkins to be reusable. You can make them into coasters and use them as place mats. Basically, you can make your compostable napkins into a lot of neat and interesting things.
