A clean slate


I have sat down to write this post a few times and just never seem to get it right. I have done the usual after Christmas packing away and cleaning. I have a huge supply of cleaners and find I use less and less of the chemical stuff. I can remember being in my bathroom and inhaling some pretty nasty fumes. For the past year I have been switching over to natural cleaners, lotions and such. I have found I lean towards a lot of Mrs. Myers, Seventh Generation and Method products. I love their scents and they work really well. I had a bit of a problem just cleaning out some of my old cleaners, but I am slowly getting there.

I joined Grove Collaborative around Christmas time. They had a scent called Iowa Pine. It is so refreshing and clean smelling. I have never seen it in my local Target. Now imagine my surprise at home many products I could get and they were less money than Target.  I love their Rosemary and their Geranium scents too. Then they have these Walnut scrubber sponges that I adore.



This was my first order and I loved everything! The toilet bowl cleaner was awesome. We have iron in our water and the bowl is a daily chore....now I can go a couple days and it looks great.

This is what came today! I got a couple things I have never seen in stores. Mrs. Myers Geranium scented hand lotion and Blood Orange hand sanitizer spray. This time of year everyone seems to be snuffing. Love the little tote...that came free with my order

So for now I am cleaning out my closet with cleaners and such and enjoying the new fresh scents.
