What to do with old cloth nappies?

Trying to unhoard a little and found a garbage bag with a tie on it in the back of wardrobe.  Found a heap of folded cloth nappies in it

from over 20 years ago.    .   Would someone want them or just chuck them?

A lot of people would love them! I only have 2 left from 23 yrs ago ... I use Tshirts these days. I wonder if there is a 'rags' category here ....

I sold most of mine at a garage sale and they all sold and I could have sold more. I have a few left, which are great cleaning cloths.
Keep them and use them.

They make the best dusters, polishers etc. Great for cleaning windows. Mopping up spills. I keep one in the glovebox too.


Make sure you keep some for yourself for the above jobs.

 

I kept ours for cleaning cloths, not one left now though. There may not be that many of them around either as most use disposables.

 

Mechanics like good cotton cloth for rags as well. Op Shops would take them for that purpose to resell too.

I still have a few from my own children....youngest is now 40.  I am trying to get my daughter to part with some of the ones I bought for my grandies but she has discovered how good they are for cleaning and will not hand them over.Smiley LOL

My mother used to have a few hanging on a hook at the kitchen door and that way the dogs were easy to dry before coming back inside in rainy weather or after they played with the sprinkler
