This weekend, we had a snow (sleet) storm that keep us all inside. While the boys played with water balloons in the tub (It's great fun for cabin fever!), I made some birch branch buttons and a sweet little set of valentine sentiments. Luke put them in our bowl of rocks, because, he said, he loves rocks.
We're also trying to eliminate the use of paper in as many products as possible, so from now on we'll be packaging most everything in cotton muslin drawstring bags. They're made of Mill Cloth, which is fabric made here in the United States using virgin cotton. This means that the cotton is minimally processed and the bags contain no toxic substances. It's not perfect, but it's a start. They're reusable, and that's so important to us!
Wishing you all a wonderful start to the week~
Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kim!
DeleteThe bags are a fantastic idea!
ReplyDeleteThanks. We still have some paper products to use up, but hopefully all packaging (except soap) will be paper free in a month or two! The bags are so nice and heavy duty that I've been finding uses for them all over the house. ;)
DeleteJust lovely, all around. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks. :)
DeleteFrom where do you purchase Mill Cloth?
ReplyDeleteI tried googling mill cloth and I don't find anything. I bought my bags from Celestial Gifts.
