Hi Paula, if the question relates to a specific post it's best ask it it there so the hometalker can help out
Paula,
The big box stores and those "membership stores" have cleaning towels you can buy in a bag of a couple dozen at a time. They are about 15" square...excellent for cleaning...excellent for any use!
In fact when we had our last BBQ Rib party, I washed a batch of new towels, rolled them up and wet them down with warm water to use as "finger and chin wipers!" Then I set a platter filled with rolled up dry ones out too.
I keep them bleached and smelling good in my kitchen towel drawer. When they get stained and raggy, they are thrown into a small container next to my freezer known as the "rag box" to be used for messy things like wiping down the back porch.
When it comes time to clean windows or wipe down the kitchen, I use the ones from the rag box. I don't tire out my hands by spraying on the window cleaner...I wet down one of these small towels and wipe the window...then come back with a dry one!
For years I bought adorable kitchen towels until I would up with a miss matched mess. Now all I use are the white terry cloth towels! THEY ARE FANTASTIC!!!
P.S. You can usually find this at Home Depot...20 will last you a LONG TIME...put out a dozen or so and store the rest:
