Paper Towels?

CaseyB15

For those of you who have replaced your paper towels with something re-usable:  What are you using instead?  Have you managed to find a convenient and accessible way to store your paper towel replacements in your kitchen?  I'd really like to cut our paper towel use down as far as possible and am curious as to what others are doing.  TIA!

Cheap cotton washcloths, and a napkin basket on my counter.  Easy-peasy.

We have a paper bag under the kitchen sink full of rags- some are cleaning and dish towels, some are pieces of cut up old t shirts. When they're dirty they go in a bucket in the laundry closet.

We have terry dish towels for drying dishes, etc. We keep one or two out at a time, hanging on the fridge handle or oven door. The clean ones are in a drawer.

We have cloth napkins for eating in a basket on the counter.

We have rags in a hanging bag in the cleaning closet.

We use some cheap dish cloths from Target (I think they were about $3 for 10) and we keep them in a stack on our counter.  We keep a little basket under the sink to throw dish cloths, towels, napkins, and bibs into when they are dirty.  It took a little getting used to (especially for DH who was a paper towel fiend) but now it's a cinch and we don't even miss the paper towels.
