(Thanks for all the swell Mother's Day wishes. I hope your weekends were full of love and sticky hugs.)
I made some mitts that look like potholders but are really for cleaning. I think they will work well for things like glass cleaning, dusting and counter wiping, but my first set was given as a gift (along with some earth friendly cleaners) so I guess she will have to be my guinea pig. One side is for cleaning (cotton chenille) and the other side is a prettied up pocket for your hand. I added a loop for hanging too.
I hate cleaning, so maybe having something pretty to use instead of a roll of paper towels will sweeten the deal for me. Plus less paper in the garbage. Shiny!*
