Going Green - Hanky schmanky

In my quest to turn to all things helping the environment I have found this adorable site - Hankyschmanky!

This hanky pictured is called "Boogie Dance". ha ha ha :>

By using handkerchiefs we can cut down on the amount of waste in landfills. We can also cut down on the amount of trees that are cut down for tissue production.

Some of you are saying - oh my - gross, I don't want to carry a hanky around. Well, yeah, that may be true - it could be disgusting. But, how many of you carry around a dirty tissue in your pocket and use it over again?

Using hankies does require you to carry a few at a time (especially as a mom of toddlers) AND it does require you to do some laundry (biodegradable soap, of course!) but it will put you one step further towards helping our environment!

I have been searching for other hanky makers out there and have found several on Etsy. I really think that they are on to something.......Could hankies be the new COOL accessory??
