As a family trying to make more environmentally responsible choices, the laundry was one of my primary areas of concern. We just have so darn much of it and so many of the products are full of chemicals. I ran into this neat product called Static Eliminator online while I was searching for alternatives. I emailed the company and they sent me a box to review as well as a box to giveaway!
The box contains 2 re-usable dryer sheets that will last for more than 500 loads. The same amount of laundry would take 13 boxes of traditional chemical laden dryer sheets to dry. So not only is this a more environmentally choice because they are re-usable, they are also super cost effective!
These sheets are made in Canada, are chemical free, safe for all fabrics and dryers. They soften the fabric, reduce wrinkles and eliminate static. They are scent free for people with allergies. However, I’ve found that a few drops of essential oil on the static eliminator dryer sheets will give your clothes a nice fresh smell without the chemicals involved in dryer sheets.
When I really started to look into what traditional dryer sheets have in them, I was beyond shocked. I had no idea that these harmless looking sheets were so full of dangerous chemicals. Now, I don’t even let my kids touch them! Once we run out of them in the house I will never be buying them again. I had no clue that they removed the fire resistance of children’s sleepwear!! The static eliminator sheets are safe for all fabrics, including kids sleepwear! I’m wondering if I should re-make all of my daughters pj’s into a blanket and buy her a new set…. At least we now have a way to dry our clothes safely! These sheets are available for purchase online at their site or at many retail locations throughout Canada and the United States.

I grow my own vegetables when possible or buy local, organic. I recycle, reuse and donate unused clothing. I also buy gently used items at garage sales or thrift stores.

Consuming foods from your own garden is by far the best thing you can do for yourself and your family. I have undertaken the challenge to grow some veggies indoors. As an added bonus I am also growing wheatgrass.
Recycle, recycle, recycle!!!
