I was sharing with Hubby what's been bouncing around in this thread. When I told him about the animal gook that's in cosmetics, etc... He wasn't surprised! Years ago, he was a manager at a restaurant and unmarked trucks would come and suck out the grease trap to transport to companies that made cosmetics. I asked why he never told me....He said he knew it would gross me out.

Well, since MaryJane has come up with a gelatin free "Chill Over" product, she now needs to come up with a gook free cosmetics line!

Vinegar works great for fabric softener! It's cheap and you use it like you would the liquid kind (which I think smells terrible!) I find I have a much more positive outlook on life when I can make small changes that are helpful to my health and the health of the planet. It doesn't take loads of money or massive amounts of time to make a difference in the world, it just takes an open mind and conscious choices. Do what you can when you can and don't forget to smile!

Much love,
Laura

Fabric softener sheets also take the musty smell out of old books and the cigarette smoke smell out of a room or an automobile.

Bounce sheets are also really good for smelly shoes...stick one in each shoe, and they come out smelling clean.
Also, being the cheapskate that I am, I've discovered that 2 used Bounce sheets are just as effective as 1 brand new Bounce sheet. I don't buy dryer sheets as often!
I've also dried throwing in a damp towel in place of Bounce sheets. It's worked for me too.

Hi, all!

There's a great website I enjoy visiting: Care2.com

I get newsletters from there that included a blurb about fabric sheets that I'd thought I'd pass on to you all:

I put several Bounce sheets here and there in my little vintage travel trailer. Each time I go to visit my little "ButtonWillow" she smells heavenly and it keeps the mice away!

Hugs,
Maryjane Lee
