Without a doubt, cloth napkins look significantly better than paper napkins. Even a cheap handkerchief has more personality than basic paper napkins.

3. Cloth napkins are heartier.

Remember how when you eat chicken wings, your paper napkin disintegrates after just a couple of uses? Cloth napkins make it much easier to keep your gooey food in your napkin instead of on your clothes.

Mason Jars and Napkins - The Perfect Napkin Holder

Using Mason Jars for Your Party

Idea #1: Wrap the jar with a simple monogram napkin (Shannon Font). Draping the napkin over the side allows the monogram to be front and center. Tying a ribbon  around the jar keeps the napkin tucked in and tidy.

Idea #2: Put the napkin completely inside the jar. Pull it up just enough to let the monogram peek through! For the monogram, we used the 3 letter monogram in the Venice Style. Have a table set up where guests can grab a jar or place them on the table's place settings for a unique tablescape.
