Hey all, just another quick post from moi. After spending the afternoon cleaning, I thought I would share some interesting ideas from a couple blogs:


"Ode To My Clothesline" from the Instead of the Dishes blog has some great ideas and thoughts about why hanging your clothes out to dry is preferable to running them in the dryer...something I would do if we were allowed to have clotheslines. "Natural Spring Cleaning" from Natural Mom, Healthy Child contains several really good recipes for natural cleaning products, something I use a lot due to chemical sensitivities AND a desire to find better ways of keeping toxins out of the ground. "Homemade Laundry Soap and Detergents" from Christian Homekeeper Network has another good recipe for homemade laundry products, although it has Fel-Naptha soap in it, which if I remember correctly, isn't exactly a natural cleaner, but worth a go for those who are interested in homemade cleaners. And finally, "Going Paperless-Paper Towel Edition" from The Diet Coke Diet has some good tips for reducing the amount of paper towels you use in your household.


So check them out, chicas, and have a good night!

Thanks for "buzzing" me! I'm not supposed to have a clothes line in my neighborhood either, so I hide mine on my back covered deck. Hanging a line inside might be an option too...

Cheers,
Fawn

You're welcome! I wish more people would do it...we used to do it all the time when we first moved here, but base housing has changed management, and they no longer allow clotheslines :( I do hang quite a bit inside, but while it's always nice to save some energy, sadly, no sunshine.
