is anyone out there who would like to tell us what they think of our
products then please contact us.
Thanks
to you, the whole family is now using cloth handkerchiefs, instead of
paper tissues. Great concept with the box, by the way. I
had to instruct my 5-yr old daughter how to not go through several in a
row-- she so enjoys pulling them out of there!

"Thank you so much for everything! Your products feel soulful and
nourishing. I am just that much more inclined to do the dishes when using
your dish cloths and towels; and sleeping between Hankettes sheets is
heavenly, they are wonderful! Best regards, Jackie"

"This company offers a vision of
what fair and ethical labour can look like in our country and we are proud to
support their efforts to create a community in which neighbours participate to
bring about a profitable and beneficial enterprise."

"At Greenpeace we are committed to stop tissue companies from cutting
down our Ancient Boreal Forests. Hankettes offers a great
earth-friendly solution: organic cotton, chemical-free hankies that
pull out of convenient pouches and boxes just like tissue, but with the
benefit of washing and re-using. In fact, we believe in them so much,
we have Hankettes put our logo on the pack of 3's and we merchandise
them on our site. So c'mon, use Hankettes and save our trees!"
Mona Coulavin - Greenpeace
"I run a small non-profit store in Victoria BC. We have been carrying Hankettes baby products
for just over one year and they have proved very successful. Customers
know that everything in our store is purchased with conscious and enjoy
the variety of baby products offered. They love the feel and look of
the natural fabric and the simple design. The baby wipes are especially
popular.
I also use Hankettes baby products
and love to give them as gifts, especially for new and expectant
mothers. I find people appreciate the high quality as well as the
environmental ethic. I only hope that they keep expanding the line to
keep up with my growing boy!
The baby bath mitts are the most popular gift item, cute and simple they make great gifts and are in anyone's price range."

" I want to say your
organic
cotton sheets are the nicest organic sheets we've seen. We bought
several sets before I started the business and they are not close to
the quality your sheets are.
Thanks so much!"
Linda Evans - Tribal Life- USA
"Hello! I wanted to share my initial experience with Hankettes to
others who may find your site, and hope that it may inspire them to
make a purchase. My son started kindergarten in September, and I wanted
to be sure to make his lunch packings all reusable (we never buy paper
napkins). When I received my first order of Hankettes I
was thrilled because they were perfect! We have used and washed them
many, many times, and they are outstanding! The quality is superb, and
they look great, and they don't curl in the wash. The Hankettes are still like new and make great lunch box napkins. I'm so glad we found them!
Thank you, and keep up the good work!"
Sincerely,
Donna in New York
"I bought Hankettes because I
wanted a more earth friendly way of dealing with my sniffles from my
allergies, but I really became devoted to them when I found how great
they were for my sniffles during work outs! They do not fall apart like
paper tissues, and they hold up much better than linen hankies. Also
they become softer and more absorbent with each washing. I love them!"
Tanya Plant - Santa Barbara, California
"I choose to use high quality products that are free of pesticides,
harsh chemicals and additives and that are harmful to our health as
well as damaging to the biosphere. I use Hankettes products
to remove my make-up, polish my jewelry and clean my glasses. I use
them as drawer sachets (with essential oils), and to clean my toddlers'
cuts and scrapes. I love them."
Pia Zadora - Actor
"I bought a pocket pack at
the Arbour Shop in Ottawa several years ago. We’re down to two hankies
now (one went missing). The quality and comforting aspect of the
hankies, coupled with the positive environmental impact of using them,
make them an obvious choice for me to promote. My husband and I both
love them."
Sharda Tarachndra - Ottawa, Ontario
"I have sensitive skin, and the chemicals in facial tissues—they use
formaldehyde to make them soft—give me a rash. (That chapped area below
your nose when you have a cold is probably from the tissues!) I’ve
tried a half a dozen different types of hankies, and hankettes are
by far the best. They are small enough to fit easily in pocket or
purse, and, most important, they are soft enough to be very
comfortable, and thick enough to be very absorbent. Once you try these,
there’s no going back!"
Becky Liddle - Atlanta, Georgia
"I just wanted you to know that I got my package on Saturday and I just LOVE the towels and hankettes !! And thank you so much for the extra hankette, that was really sweet of you to include that. Thanks for the fast delivery too."
Dianne Agee - Spokane, Washington
"Hi there-I just received my order-I love the quality and softness of your products. The face cloths are wonderful! I was recently diagnosed with rosacea-and needed something that gentle for my face. The baby washcloth ( baby bath mitt ) is great-we can finally-easily-slip a wash cloth in our daughters neck without her barely noticing. The hankerchiefs are so great-I had been using my daughter’s cloth baby wipes until I discovered Hankettes . I even figured out how to fold them so that they actually dispense from the box ! Thank you for the wonderful organic cotton!"
Linda Jones - Santa Fe, New Mexico
"I LOVE these hankettes!!! They
are so soft and gentle on my nose! I bought them mainly because I like
to reduce waste wherever possible. I have had nasal congestion
throughout my whole pregnancy. I was going through boxes of disposable
tissues. But now that I have used the hankettes, I just love them because they feel so nice! I just have to get another box for the first floor of my home. Thank you for making this very excellent product!"
Danielle Cumberland – Mount Airy, Maryland
"I am writing to let you know that I love your products. I recently ordered some napkins and tea towels and
just love them. They are of excellent quality and I can tell, after
just a few times of using them, that they will last forever! And,
thanks for including the little handkerchief . It’s a great size; I’ve given it to my 5 year old daughter and she is no longer jealous of MY cloth hankerchiefs ! Keep up the wonderful craftsmanship and expect more orders from me and anyone else I can convince!"
Joanne Leffler – Sacramento, California
"I bought a few of these tea towels for
my own home. My mother visited and started raving over these towels so
now, I am buying this set for her birthday. Thanks for the great
products!"

"Talk about a great idea that hasn't been done yet. Wash and reuse.
Environmentally speaking, it's the right thing to do! Just ask our
Capers Family."
