How to Make Reusable Paper Towels with Cloth

Our crafty-DIY-queen Jordan Sparks shares how to make "unpaper towels" with flannel fabric. These are a great solution to cutting waste. Her sister-in-law got these before the pandemic in an effort to create less waste. Once paper product shortages started happening at local grocery stores, Jordan decided it was a good time to try it out for herself.

Step 1: Cut your flannel into 9.5 inch x 11.5 inch pieces.

Step 2: Surge around the edges.

Step 3: Roll onto existing paper towel roll. Since it’s flannel they’ll stick to one another, so you can store them on your normal paper towel holder!

Wash and reuse!
