~*~*~*~These textiles are, by nature, Eco-friendly! The average age of these textiles is 100 years and they were naturally home grown, home retted ( in local lakes and ponds) and woven by hand. These textiles are being re-cycled today and showing off the extreme craftsmanship of past generations! Yet another feature that makes these textiles extremely eco-friendly is their durability. These textiles were designed to endure generations of constant use~ and will have an extremely long life. The timeless beauty of this linen and their extraordinary quality make these textiles the perfect choice for any home~ and an environmentally friendly choice~*~

To avoid possible disappointment, I always recommend insuring every parcel~*~

I always happily combine postage costs to save my customers money on shipping~*~

The linen is home grown, home retted and hand woven. These sacks are 100% machine washable! I wash them on a regular warm, and then hang to dry ( however you can tumble dry too!) I like to add a liquid fabric conditioner to the final rinse for added softness. If there is dirt present simply add Oxyclean or similar~ hemp was built to last, and last .....and last...the more you use it the more wonderful it becomes~ most times there isn't even a need for ironing after wash~ perfect for easy lifestlyes~*~
