Make Your Own Cloth Rags

Cloth Rags can be made out of many old worn out clothing items such as old flannel sheets, t-shirts, and cloth diapers. Finish the edges on your sewing machine if you like but it often isn't necessary. Pick up some cheap wash cloths or find some at thrift stores.

Just cut them up and use them for many clean-up jobs. Never use paper towels again.

(My mom was still using some of the old cloth diapers as cleaning rags for many years after we were out of diapers.)

Cloth Rag Uses:

-Dusting and cleaning jobs
-Cleaning up spills
-Cloth napkins
-Puppy accidents
-Kid's pee (great when potty training)
-Use them as toilet paper or kleenex tissues
-Keep some around for a quick baby wipe during a diaper changing.
-Camping
-Washing dishes
-Paint cloths
-Lint-free ones are great for glass or mirrors.
-Make a rag quilt
-Washing the car
-Come up with your own.

Another idea is to Turn your Rags into Bags.

Another frugal tip:
Save your old toothbrushes for scrubbing hard to reach places!
