Napkins v. Paper Towels

Which do you use and when?
Chat Icon


We have our papertowels right next to our paper napkins....Sometimes I just don't know which one to grab! Chat Icon

How do you distinguish if something calls for a napkin vs. a papertowel?

We're paper towel junkies in our house. Napkins will sit FOREVER in the cabinet, but somehow, everything seems to call for paper towels. The napkins only get used when there's no more paper towelsChat Icon

Good question! Chat Icon I always use paper towels for cleaning, but when it comes to wiping my face or hands, I tend to use paper towels if I'm eating something messier. I always use a wet paper towel to clean Christopher's face after he eats.

Just like you...
Paper napkins (informal)
Paper towels (cleaning)
We have cloth napkins for formal dinners or when we have guests over.

Ditto. Chat Icon Paper towels are just better all around but napkins look prettier so I put them out when we have people over for dinner.
