Mini Double Gauze Handkerchief

I am a Mini Double Gauze Handkerchief. If you're hankering to blow your nose, I'm a handy one to keep in tow. 

Curator's Notes 

With allergy season in the air, tissues seem to be the constant accessory in tow. We love the idea of replacing a disposable pack with a softer and more sustainable substitute. This oh-so soft double gauze handkerchief has such a gentle hand for your nose. Despite its plush and soft texture, the gauze holds its structure well and still looks like new after repeated washing.
