Laundry Win!

So I am the "Queen of Maybe Pinterest Knows".  Seriously. ..in 2015 if you call your mom or best girlfriend needing a recipe, knitting stitch, dieting tips, identifying a toddler rash--whatever. ..they will all say "let's check Pinterest! "

In my Pinterest feed I see all this cool stuff---but are they really doing it?!

This week I read several pins about laundry softeners--the dangers and the costs. So I tried one and here is my results after 4 loads!


Easy Peasy!!!

***add 1 bottle of lavender essential oil to 1 gallon of vinegar. 
Then use that as your fabric softener in your wash. I added about 1/8 cup to each load. Every load smells great and is so soft!

WHAT ABOUT STATIC?
Okay this is pure scientific magic!
Pull out that box of aluminum foil and tear off about 6 or 7 sheets 12 or so inches long. Wad them up into a ball and toss it in the dryer with the next load! It worked for me!

**the ball will come out smooth 

**keep reusing the same ball
(When should you toss it and start a new one? The very moment your ADD takes over and you want to make a new one!)
