FRUGAL FRIDAY

On this Frugal Friday I’d like to talk about bandanas.

I own a lot of bandanas, in just about any color or design you can imagine. I used to wear them under my motorcycle helmet, but since they started making more and more cute do-rags (aka skullcaps) for women, those are now my head covering of choice under my helmet.

I still use a couple of pink bandanas (a must for this pink girl!) to tie around my neck or to cover my nose and mouth during high-pollen seasons, but this still left me with a whole lotta unused bandanas!

My daughter, Kathy, and I were shopping a month or two ago and noticed what cute bandana patterns are available now. Our first thought was how cute these would be as dinner napkins:

• They don’t cost much.
• They’re the right size.
• They wash and dry easily.
• And—if you’re actually into it and you absolutely think they need it—they can easily be ironed.
• And you can find them in so many stores now.
• Oh, and how much more recyclable/reusable can you get?

So let me ask you: what’s not to love about all that?
