Have you guys heard of the Jimmy Towel? This project has everything going for it... It's a local effort to replace paper towels with a reusable microfiber cloth (made in the USA). I was really impressed with their concept and the way they presented it. Watching their kickstarter video, I feel like the point really hit home when they mentioned that "51,000 trees are cut down every day". EVERY. DAY. That figure is unacceptable. Where I grew up, it wasn't uncommon for people to carry a handkerchief, or tiny washcloth with them. In many parts of the world, keeping a cloth in your pocket or purse is commonplace. For some reason, that's not the case here- but Jimmy Towel is working to change that. They've got 14 days left to raise $3,264 of their $15,000 goal or their project will not be funded and they'll go back to square one. Let's help! I just supported them on kickstarter, and I hope that you will too. ♥
I backed it! Thanks for bringing this to our attention!!! i hope they get all that they need! I'm excited for my Dapper Jimmy Towel! :)

DeleteHey... we dig the Jimmy Towel too! It's one of those "Duh" products where you're a little pissed at yourself for not thinking of it first. We got our hands on one and here's our review - http://wp.me/p106i6-47f
