Pretty handkerchiefs. Much more feminine than the handkerchiefs I buy in the men's department, which is my only option due to availability here in Hawaii. I'm giving 4 stars because I wish they were a little softer, because I mainly use them around my eyes, because my eyes tend to water from allergies, I'll probably try some fabric softener. However, this may be my preference due to the sensitivity in this area which often requires the use of tissues or tissues. I've also unknowingly put bleached white clothing in the washer and dryer and was surprised that it held up well, the embroidery didn't fade or tear. I would recommend.
