Friendsheep Eco Dryer Balls | Six Busy Bees
Friendsheep wool dryer balls are a great reusable alternative to dryer sheets. An all natural fabric softener made from 100% premium New Zealand wool. Using wool balls in the dryer can reduce drying time up to 40% while being free of harmful chemicals. Let these busy bees hum along in your plastic free laundry routine!
Friendsheep Eco Dryer Balls naturally soften and fluff your laundry by gently tumbling in your dryer. Their movement helps separate your fabrics allowing the heat to better flow between them. This will reduce wrinkles, static cling, and help you to reduce drying time.
Use these wool balls to replace chemical fabric softeners and dryer sheets. They will naturally fluff your fabrics and reduce drying time by 20% to 40%, depending on your load size. Made to help you save time, money, and energy!
Completely plastic-free, chemical free, unscented, non-toxic, and hypoallergenic, they're the perfect choice for those with sensitive skin and babies.
Each set comes with a user manual thatโs printed on recycled paper with vegetable ink.
- Leaping Bunny Certified. An internationally recognized cruelty-free certification, which requires that companies pledge to end animal testing at all stages of product development. Even the supply chain must be checked for animal testing right down to the ingredient manufacturer level. Companies must recommit yearly and be open to third-party audits.
- New Zealand Ethical Wool. Friendsheep wool comes from sheep humanely treated and sheared. Their organic wool is sourced from a small consortium of family owned farms in New Zealand where sheep are ethically treated and no chemicals, hormones or pesticides are ever used. New Zealand farmers operate under a range of regulations that ensure very high standards of environmental protection, sustainability, animal welfare and social responsibility. New Zealand's climate is mild and sheep graze free-range in open pasture all year round. There is no flystrike, and mulesing is not practiced. Livestock exportation from New Zealand is prohibited, and this prevents the practice of horror trips on cargo ships around the world.
- German Safety Product Safety Act Compliant. Certified azo-free, lead-free.
- Sapling Level Partner with Eden Reforestation Projects a nonprofit organization that works in developing countries to rebuild natural landscapes destroyed by deforestation. Eden works directly with villages and communities suffering from extreme poverty resulting from the deforestation and destruction of the land that sustains them. Friendsheep plants one tree with every purchase of their products. Thanks to their partnership, they have planted over 225,000 trees!

Swedish Dishcloths | Love
Swedish dishcloths, also called sponge cloths, can replace up to 17 rolls of paper towels and help you to significantly reduce waste. They are an excellent paper towel alternative and are perfect for wiping spills, cleaning counters, and performing general cleaning tasks. They are safe to use on all surfaces and never leave a scratch.

Le Parfait Canning Jar
Le Parfaitย Canning Jars use stainless steel wire clamps with airtight natural rubber seals, so you can feel goodย about your preservation.ย This system keeps the contents air tight, which means a long-term shelf life. Each jar is deeply embossed with the Le Parfait name, leaving plenty of room for future labeling, soย you will know the quality of both the contents and their packaging.
Le Parfait's classic design complements jams and jellies, pickles and chutneys, dried fruit and nuts or even sweet treats. The jar's design also makes it a decorative element for non-canning needs. They work equally well for bath and body products, such as creams and lotions, bath salts and candles.ย Made in the heart of France since the early 1930s, Le Parfait is the glassware choice for discerning canning enthusiasts.
* Does not qualify for free shipping.
Love! Love! Love Le Parfait jars! The 3 liter size is great for storing sundries like flour and sugar. I am looking forward to buying more when they are back in stock. I do have these jars in various sizes and they are wonderful to store all types of snacks and teas. Highly recommend!

I did a review last year, after using the floss for less than a week. I gave just 4 stars, knocking off 1 due to me having initial difficulty wrapping the floss under the cutter. Iโm now giving 5 stars, as I got the hang of it probably within days of my review. Using it is so simple. I just got my first refill pack - no plastic and I love it!
Great floss. I have teeth that are close together and often have floss stuck in my teeth because it breaks. Not this floss. I have not had one breakage. Tough stuff.
Iโll admit to having low expectations, as Iโve bought my share of disappointing flosses, with the usual let down being easily breakable floss. Not the case with this one, which is sturdy and hasnโt broken once in the several weeks Iโve been using it. The container is such that itโs easy to unroll, but sometimes takes a few tries to get it under the flap that cuts the floss; weโre talking 2-3 extra second, so not a big deal. Itโs no frills, in that thereโs no taste. Iโll definitely be sticking with this floss in the future.

Dyed Papers | Turmeric
I LOVE these dyed, hand-crafted papers. I use them when I have a very special letter to write and want my words to stand out to the recipient. As well, I've given them as gifts (with the envelopes) to people who value writing and words. Some handmade papers have "bumps" and mess with your ink; not these. The writing surface is smooth and one's pen simply rolls across the paper. As a retired, picky English teacher, I HIGHLY recommend!!
