cotton napkins in a tear-off roll
This is an amazing product if you don't want single use paper napkins, but high-end reusable table linens are not in the budget. I was concerned that there would be loose threads on the edges where they tear apart, but that has not been an issue. They separated smoothly with no jagged edges. I enjoyed the novelty of tearing the napkins off of the roll like a paper towel. The fabric is tightly woven, midweight, 100% cotton. It gives a polished, expensive look to a table setting. These are pricey, at nearly $1 per napkin, but still less expensive than traditional table linens. I have not tried to wash these yet, so I cannot comment on that feature. I like that My Drap offers napkins in 3 sizes as well as place mats, and it a variety of colors and prints.

Real Cloth Napkins: Ready To Roll But Watch Out For Steep Price 💸🍽️
This style of napkin is becoming pretty popular. It fills that middle ground between flimsy paper napkins and full-on “break out the fancy linen” cloth napkins. You get the upgraded look of real cotton in a semi-disposable format. These are absolutely washable, but they’re also positioned as “use and toss if you want,” which is both the appeal, and the problem here.While paper cocktail napkins are usually folded with layers, these are single-layer cotton. Each one is 20cm/just under 8". They are thin, slightly stiff, and feel like pure cotton with that bit of crispness. For cocktail napkins, their thinness & size is totally fine. They're meant to hold your drink, catch condensation, grab a canapé, dab your fingers... etc.I ordered 'Lipstick Red', and the color is really pretty in person: a deep, slightly cool-toned cranberry/Christmas red. The white border stitching gives them a nice touch. They look great on a table, especially for holidays or more dressed up get togethers.The roll format is also kinda fun. You unroll and tear them off like a mini paper towel roll, which keeps them looking perfectly pressed and smooth without any effort. I have torn off several and had no issues with loose threads or ragged edges. They feel well-made for what they are.At the current price, they work out to about 88¢ per napkin. That's way too much if you plan on pitching them. And I know from experience that you can buy nearly identical cotton napkin rolls on this site, at a lower price for twice the sheets.If you can catch them on sale, they make very cute, low effort “elevated” napkins for parties, holidays, or whenever you want things to look nicer without breaking out the heirloom linens.TLDR:✔ Real cotton cloth - more upscale than paper napkins✔ Tear off style = smooth, flat & ready to... roll 😝✔ The Lipstick Red is beautiful, perfect for holidays✔ White border adds pretty contrast & polish✔ Reusable/washable, optionally➞ Smaller cocktail size, best for drinks & light use➞ Thin, slightly stiff cotton (I like the crispness, but YMMV)✗ 88¢/ea is way too steep for single-use✗ I've found nearly identical ones here for less than half cost per sheetPS: If you decide to wash & reuse them, here is what the care symbols on the package mean:• Machine wash Warm (40°C / 104°F)• Do not bleach• Tumble dry Normal• Iron on High heat• Wash separately or with similar colors
