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.

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!
