How Many Hankettes Do I Need?
The answer depends a lot on how many people are in your family, how often you do laundry, and whether anyone in your home has allergies or an upper-respiratory illness (such as a cold or the flu).
To get an estimate of your family's usage, make note of the next time you buy a box of disposable tissues. Put out that one box, and only that box, and then see how long it lasts. Divide the number of tissues the box contained by the number of days the box lasted and you'll get a figure for the average number of tissues your family used per day. Then just multiply that figure by the number of days between your laundry days and your answer is the number of Hankettes you should have on-hand if you wish to replace your disposable tissues completely.
Note that you may wish to have several boxes of Hankettes so your family can conveniently access them throughout your home. Consider having one box in each bathroom and bedroom, as well as in high-traffic areas like the living room and family room/den.
For my family of four, we have about four dozen Hankettes. All four of us have allergies and I usually need to wash our reusable handkerchiefs every other day so we don't run out. During peak allergy times or when one, or more, of us is sick, I sometimes need to wash them every day.
Care Instructions
Simply wash your Hankettes handkerchiefs in your regular laundry and reuse. With regular use and maintenance, your organic cotton Hankettes will last at least 4-5 years.
