Looking for Spring Placemats that are Wipeable

beach-mom — Wed, 03 Mar 2021 20:16:30 GMT

My favorite set that I've had for years has seen better days. I've checked the big box stores and the cooking stores- no luck. A lot say "washable," but I want sturdy ones you can just wipe clean.

But no cork or heavy material ones, although a heavier flexible plastic would be fine. I'm fussy!

Does anyone have any ideas where I can look? TIA!

@beach-mom Do you have a local Home Goods store in your area? They generally have a varied selection.

Check Dollar Green store. They have them at $1.00 each and they last for a season or more.

Sample below:

Isn't it aggravating when you know exactly what you want, and have seen everywhere until you want to purchase it.

Do you have a Big Lots near you?

I got these in a "natural" and a light aqua color at Walmart. They look woven but are actually vinyl. About $2 each.

@beach-mom Have you looked at the ones they have here on QVC? Set of 6...round...many pretty colors. #390568. I was looking for a table runner today and saw these also.

Thank you everyone! I hadn't thought of. Home Goods. Some of the stores you mentioned I wish we had. I found some I liked on Amazon, but they were out of stock. The Temptations ones are nice. I might get those!

I have a neighbor who loves having people over for dinner. (until this year, that is) She has a variety of place mats, her answer was the dollar store, of which we have two locally.

The best wipeable placemats I've EVER found were from the Christmas Tree Shops. They have seasonal selections and the mats are a thicker foam.

They do not sell online, so a store visit is required.

The colors never fade and the designs are wonderful.

Wanted to add that I was a placemat snob for years. Only bought the fabric ones. Well, one season and most are done for. I like being able to wipe clean rather than launder.

@jackthebear

You and I made the same suggestion

Don't they have the cutest, seasonal placemats?

I'm due a visit soon, but do NOT need anymore placemats!

@Witchy Woman and @jackthebear - We have no Christmas Tree Shops anywhere near us. I wish we did.

I love their paper goods for every season, and we always buy the powder room napkins.

funny thing haven't needed those in the past year
