Kitchen Wetbags and Unpaper Towel Sets



This year for Christmas I decided to go homemade. I also wanted to share my addiction to cloth...however, I can't give people cloth diapers considering most of the receivers have been potty trained for 60+ years. Yes...I said most. LOL...that was a joke. I decided on Unpaper Towel rolls and Kitchen wetbags. My husband even helped. He cut the fabric, I serged and sewed. He even became a snapping pro and put his manufacture engineering and project management skills to work. Although, I was the project manager on this project. Shh..don't tell him. This is the result...9 wetbags and 9 unpaper towel rolls...2 not pictured.

The Kitchen wetbag is lined with PUL (polyurethane laminated polyester). This is the fabric I use to make cloth diapers waterproof. The wetbag is open at the top so that damp kitchen towels and rags can be tossed in rather than risking mildew on your cloths in your laundry. Snap on straps allow the bag to hang over the handle of a stove or can also be hung from a door knob.

The Unpaper towels are a cotton woven print on one side for asthetics and a layer of cotton terry for duty. They are snapped together much like a paper towel roll and can be rolled around a paper towel dispenser and used just as you would paper towels...clean up or napkins. The object is to save on paper and on money. Just toss them in the kitchen wetbag when done and wash when full rather than tossing them in the trash.
