Cloth Napkins: Because Paper’s Just Too Rough, OK?
Once dismissed as 'Downton Abbey buffoonery,' cloth napkins are staging a quiet coup over our messy meals. The author proudly admits a lifelong love for these soft, reusable linens, noting that nothing beats a 'tiny tablecloth on the go' during turbulent flights or festive dinners. From fringed linen at Pottery Barn ($56 for four) to 'subtle yeehaw' block-printed napkins by Julie Peach ($58), options abound for every table tyrant and purse hoarder. These eco-friendly wipes are not just practical, they're described as 'highly practical and environmentally friendly'—and even make great gifts. Who knew wiping your fingers could feel so classy?
