Replace Paper Towels with SKOY Earth friendly towels

 

WOW, I love these cloths!  The day I received them in the mail it was a Friday and that night my husband and I were having a small dinner party.  After a glass of wine, I started telling everyone about these "great paper towel replacements called SKOY cloths" and how "One SKOY cloth saves 15, yes 15, rolls of paper towels!"  I then added that they were biodegradable, natural, reusable, machine washable, and they soak up messes in a jif leaving no trace of a spill.  People got very excited, and they wanted to see this miraculous product.  So, I got them out.  Oooohs, and Aaaaahs rang from the women, "how cute, with the flower on it", said my friend Cassie, then she reached across to grab one, and woops, accidentally knocked over the bottle of wine we were drinking as she went for it.  

Everyone stood up, I tossed the SKOY cloths around as everyone chipped in to clean up.  Cleaning up the wine took only a few seconds as the SKOY cloths soaked it up so fast that within half a minute you couldn't even tell there was a spill.  I quickly rinsed out the cloths and squeezed out the excess water and placed them across my dish rack.  I thought, perfect, that was a perfect test of this great product, and you can see, it passed with flying colors!

SKOY is made from a blend of natural cotton and wood-pulp cellulose, so it is completely non-toxic, and the flowers on the cloths are made from a water-based ink!  And unlike a yucky sponge, it is 100% Biodegradable, you can put in the dishwasher to clean, or toss in your microwave (although we don't own one) and micro on high for 1 to 2 minutes to clean.  I used it with my organic glass cleaner to clean my windows, and it worked like a charm!  This is a great alternative to paper towels, it is inexpensive ($5.99 for 4, especially when compared to the price of buying paper towels over and over) and it is great for the environment, seeing as with over 90% of US households taking advantage of the convenience of paper towels we produce over 3,000 tons of waste each day!
