Home-Made: Orange Oil Vinegar Household Cleaner

Want to go a little greener?  Or just save some money?  One way is to make your own household cleaner using nothing but orange (or lemon) peels and white (aka distilled) vinegar.

I eat a lot of oranges and squeeze my own orange juice throughout the year. Now I just save the peels to make our own cleaner.  Here's how:

     - stuff orange peels in glass jar
     - fill with white vinegar
     - seal jar with lid
     - let sit for 2 weeks
     - strain vinegar
     - pour in spray bottle
     - dilute 1:1 with water if desired (we do)
     - add a couple of drops of Dawn dishwashing liquid soap if desired (we don't) & shake well
     - use on counters, walls, bathtubs, stove tops, sinks, and anywhere that you would use 409
     - if you have a sink disposal, run the used orange peels down there for a quick freshening

The orange vinegar works surprisingly well on grease. It's easy, it's cheap, it's green, and it's effective.

Make a Reusable & Washable Swiffer Cover

Is this a great idea or what? You can use microfiber, terry, fleece, or even your old prefolds to make a reusable and washable cover for your Swiffer mop or steam cleaner.  Snap closures would make it a cinch!

Food-Safe PUL

We wanted to share this bit of information one of our thoughtful customers shared with us regarding food-safe PUL.  Thank you, Stephanie.

I remember seeing someone post the food/sandwich bag they made a few weeks back and there was some concern that pul was not safe to be used with food. I was just ordering some new pul fabric and found this info about it and thought I would share.....

EcoPUL™ is food safe. PUL fabric by Eco-PUL™ has been tested and found free from lead, phthalates, and BPA. Eco-PUL™ complies with FDA regulations 21 CFR 177.1680 and 177.2600 and therefore can be used in direct and indirect food contact applications, as well as potable water under NSF61.

Over $1000 Raised for Oklahoma Tornado Relief

We recently had a fundraiser through the sale of KAMsnaps pliers to raise money to donate to The Salvation Army to help with Oklahoma tornado relief.  Our goal was to raise at least $500.  Because of your support, we raised more than double that!  Thank you for helping us make a small difference.
