cotton hankies where can I buy them please?

Post: # 125215Post becks77 »

Hi,
We have all just had this cold that is going around at the mo, and I dug out my old dad's cotton hankies which were great and didn't give us red raw noses, so consequently I would like to equip the family with enough hankies for all, but cannot find a source anywhere, does anyone know where I can buy them please, was there someone on the forum with a website a little while ago, that sold hankies?
Thanks everyone, sorry if this is in the wrong place.
Also for Christmas and birthdays, instead of wrapping presents in paper what about a large hankie and a pretty ribbon....3 presents in 1
Many thanks :flower:

Well, you can easily make your own by cutting up some old worn out clothes and stiching round the edge to stop it from fraying. If you want to buy some, I've definitely seen cheapo ones in Wilkinsons, or try the menswear section of any clothing shop.

My husband has always used them, but I'm just slowly converting. I'm too used to the disposable type!

If you happen to find yourself over in West Sussex (although why would you?) Broadbridges in Horsham would be your place. They also have a website and you can order from them by phone.
