Bird-E Towels - Family Pack (set of 52)
Description
Bird-E Towels™ are here! OK, they've been here for a while under the generic term 'unpaper towel' but it became clear that I needed a name that I could trademark and thus Bird-E Towels™ were born. Same great product made by my 2 hands in my home studio. We're excited about the new name and we hope you like it too! (If you don't, just nod and smile. It did feel like we were naming a baby and it's a tough job!) ;)********************************
My best selling item here and at my local arts' market! These cloths are simply fabulous, a wonderful way to cut the paper towel habit.
This listing is for a jaw dropping 52 Bird-E Towels™! As the name suggests, these are paper towel replacement. Whatever you might use a paper towel for, you can use these cloths. Dry your hands, wipe up spills, clean the dining room table, dinner napkins, etc, etc. Even better then paper towels, you can actually clean glass and mirrors without leaving linty bits like paper towels and other cloths can do.
This set will be made to order and may take an extra 1-2 days over my normal shipping time lines. The white satin ribbon in the pics is not currently available but I will substitute it with another type/color of ribbon.
What's the problem with paper towels?? The main problem is that the paper towels that most people use are made from virgin tree pulp. That means that trees are cut down and harvested for something that you are going to use ONE time. And then it gets thrown away...adding to the landfill problem. Oh and to make it even worse for the environment, they bleach the pulp releasing toxic chemicals into our environment. (For something that is used one time?!?)
So, cloth is better in so many ways. You can expect years of use from these cloths. And considering that you can toss these small cloths in with laundry that you already have to do...it doesn't really have much environmental impact once you get them home.
Sometimes, though, it's really hard to break the paper habit. That's exactly why I created these. I tried all the recommended suggestions and they just didn't work for us. (i.e. my hubby kept coming home with rolls of paper towels!) It wasn't until I had a lightbulb moment in my sewing studio with this amazing light weight but absorbent 100% cotton fabric that I found something worked....and it worked really well...my prototype Bird-E Towels™ (formerly referred to as unpaper towels.) We were finally free of that paper towel addiction!
My Bird-E Towels™ can help bridge that gap because they feel and act more like a paper towel (only better!) vs any of the alternatives out there.
The unbleached part means that nasty toxins aren't released into our environment during the manufacturer's bleaching process. Whenever you get a chance, choose unbleached for a healthier earth.
Size: I cut them a precise 10" square but they lose a teeny bit of width in the serging process. I am meticulous about making sure that each one conforms to my high standards before I mail them to you.
Printed care instructions are included with your order.
They are easy to incorporate into your current washing routine. I recommend no fabric softener to retain the highest degree of absorptivity. Don't fret if you forget, you won't ruin them, they just won't be quite as absorbent. I recommend washing these with a load of similar colors mainly to prevent other items from bleeding color. I throw ours in with sheets or towels. I've even hand-washed ours in the kitchen sink and hung them to dry...if I didn't have a load to do. They dry FAST. Yes, you can dry them in a clothes dryer. And yes, you can use bleach them if that's your preference. Personally, I like soaking them with Borax or Oxyclean if stains are an issue.
