FAQs
Are these the same as dinner napkins?
No. They’re cocktail-size (8"×8")—perfect for drinks, canapés, dessert, and lunchboxes. If you prefer something larger, we also make our Reusable Non-Paper Towels using this elegant fabric!
Do they shed lint?
A little at first. After the first few washes, the brushed cotton settles and the lint noticeably reduces. The fabric will also become softer and more absorbent.
Will they stain from red wine, coffee, or berries?
Like all fabric made from natural fibres, they can stain. Treat promptly: rinse cold, apply stain remover, then launder warm. For tough spots, oxygen-based brightener helps. Avoid bleach to protect fibres and colour (hint: darker colours hide stains better!).
How do I care for my Cocktail Napkins?
Wash before first use. They will become softer and more absorbent after a few washes.
Machine wash with like colours; tumble dry low or line dry. Skip fabric softeners (they can reduce absorbency). Press with a warm iron if you like a crisp fold.
Don’t use fabric softener or dryer sheets as this will decrease absorbency of the fabric!
Are they suitable to use as a mini cape for an energetic hamster sidekick?
Adorable in theory, though not recommended. Our Organic Cocktail Napkins are for glasses and canapés, not pets.
Are they certified organic?
Yes. All of our organic products are made from fabrics that are Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS)certified.
Is it okay to wash with fabric softener or use dryer sheets?
No! Did you not read the care instructions?? Please don’t use fabric softener or dryer sheets as this will decrease absorbency of the fabric.
