MOST FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q) What are my options for paying?
A) PayPal or credit card
Q) Are there special washing instructions?
A) INITIAL PREP:
-Wash your soakers in hot or warm water before use, they are ready for use just after 1 wash. Tumble dry on high heat.
SUBSEQUENT WASHES:
-All pieces can be washed/dried together. After use, store soiled diapers in a laundry bag or pail until you are ready. If soakers are really soiled do a cold rinse cycle (if not heavily soiled you can skip this step) then a regular warm or hot wash cycle (avoid HOT water if the covers are in the load too) with soap and toss into the dryer. ALL PIECES are machine wash and dryer safe! Be sure to attach the hook and loop tabs to the front strip of the cover to avoid any snagging that may occur during wash cycle.
For optimal longevity of your diapers you may hand wash your covers and hang them to dry.
WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND HANDWASHING :)
Q) How do you handwash the covers?
A) There are many ways you can handwash, for me the easiest is to fill the bath tub with a small amount of water - toss in all the covers with them completely uncinched so they lay flat. Swish them all around so they get a bit rinsed. I then take a bar of soap and rub the bar against each cover, I then rub them against themselves to give a little scrub - I then rinse them under running water. I wring them in a towel to get out excess water and hang to dry over the shower rod. Only takes a few minutes for a small load of covers.
Q) What is your return policy?
A) Due to the nature of this product we do not offer returns on our cloth diapers. If you have an issue or concern please contact us directly at greenlinediapers@gmail.com and we will do our best to get you loving your new diapers.
Q) Do you accept print requests?
A) Yes! If you have cool fabric contact us for options. We love the idea of you seeing an awesome print on Etsy and turning it into a custom cover!
Q) When can I expect to receive my custom order?
A) -Please allow a 1-2 week sewing period to complete your custom order followed by approximately 1-2 weeks for shipping.
- READY TO SHIP ITEMS: please allow 3-4 days for shipment of these items, followed by approx. 1-2 weeks for shipping
Q) Can I use diaper creams with these diapers?
A) Yes. Although we hope you won’t need to.
Q) What are the soakers made of?
A) The soakers are made from high quality bamboo and cotton(30% cotton and 70% bamboo) . Our soakers are soft, gentle and very absorbent – perfect for diapers!
Q) What do I do if the cover gets dirty/wet?
A) If a cover feels damp simply hang it up to air out and use a new one. Using 2 or more covers in rotation allows for longer use of your covers without needing to be washed in between. If a cover becomes soiled I suggest rinsing it with cold water then tossing it into your laundry bag. Warm water would set a stain… make sure to rinse with cold.
Q) Can I have part of my order shipped to my friend?
A) We prefer to send the entire order to the original purchaser - many requests to send specific items from an order to a separate address becomes quite hard to keep track of and things tend to get mixed up or held up taking longer than needed. We kindly ask that if you want to send part of your order to a friend that you do so once you have the products in your possession. With so many different orders coming and going all the time this is simply much easier for us. Thank you very much for your understanding in this matter.

Q) What are my shipping options? Will my package have tracking and insurance?
A) We ship everything by surface mail based on it's weight and size. Whenever possible we use PayPal shipping for an even better rate of shipping. Here is a breakdown of information regarding what that means:
Shipping within Canada (we are shipping from ON,Canada)

-Anything larger than a lettermail size is considered a parcel and will travel surface mail, includes a tracking # and up to $100 insurance. If you wish to have your package insured for more than $100, additional insurance can be purchased for $2 for every $100 coverage. The cost of parcel post varies greatly depending on the size of your order and where in Canada it is being shipped.
Some examples:
- A smaller parcel would on average cost between $10-$13 to ship.
- A larger parcel would on average cost between $12-$30
