There's some great ideas from last week I'm eager to share with you!
- Before twins, Emily worked with infants in a daycare. She'll tell you all about how you don't have to wait till your kiddos are older to do crafts. Her six-month-olds fingerpainted some beautiful masterpieces with edible fingerpaints. She includes the recipe and tips for making the project all come together. Check it out!
- Melissa's twins love a series of books by Eric Litwin about Pete the Cat.
- Laura loves organizing her girls' lunch boxes by using Ball freezer jars---an inexpensive, eco-friendly way to pack lunches. She'll tell you all about it.
- Cat will tell you about the most awesome idea to both give her children responsibility and to keep peace in her home. You must check this one out!

A few weeks ago I told you about Nellie's All Natural Laundry Soda.
This tiny little bag gives you a whopping 50 loads of laundry, and does a pretty stellar job of getting everything clean, especially our cloth diapers.
What's beautiful about this laundry soda is that it's dye-free and perfume-free. Perfect for babies' sensitive skin, and free of all those harsh chemicals for the health and well-being of your entire family.
Nellie's Naturals is giving away one of these to one of my readers. That's 50 loads of laundry for free!!
To enter to win please do two things:
- Go "Like" Nellie's All-Natural on facebook
- Then, leave a comment letting me know you liked them, and tell me one thing you've done to make your home a little more "green"----hint: It can be as simple as what my friend SarahFae does in the bathroom; they reuse their towels a couple times before washing them.
Entries will be accepted through Friday, September 7th at 5PM (CST).
Can't wait to see what you're loving this week!

Went and liked the FB page! We finally made the switch over to cloth diapers and as soon as the current box of wipes empties we will be trying DIY wipes!
Liked Nellies on Facebook. The most recent thing we have done to be a little bit more green is use cloth napkins/towels instead of paper towels or napkins. The fun part is that I don't have enough that match so when we have company for dinner everyone has different napkins.
I liked them on facebook. One thing I've done to be a bit more green is making most of my cleaners.
Liked their page. I bring my own reusable bags when I grocery shop and avoid using plastic when possible. If I do make it home with plastic I use it again in smaller trash cans around the house.

I liked them on Facebook. We use cloth napkins for all our meals, makes the table beautiful too :)
Jesca's link pops back to your page? Just thought I'd let you know.
Oh I love that fingerpaint recipe. Am going to try it with my big kids too
Liked the FB page.
We started composting -- less garbage each week and something good for the garden next spring.
I liked them on FB. We are trying to grow plants indoors. Hoping for healthier air and some natural aloe for the "boo-boo's" we have!
Quick question, do you buy this online? Or is there a local store that you buy it from?
Thanks!
SarahFae, you can get Nellie's stuff at Cotton Babies in St. Louis-----nothing on this side of the river though.
Oh, nice! I just added Pete The Cat and Nellie's detergent to my Amazon cart.
Just liked their page!
We love Pete the Cat, too!
We have stepped up our recycling. We also let the kids take the recycling to the bin... train them early, I say!
