Making Your Own Toiletries and Household Cleaners...

Recently, I posted a link on how to make your own facial moisturizer, which I have to  say is working beautifully.  My face feels so hydrated. http://www.myfancy55.com/2012/02/homemade-face-lotion.html .

Pinterest has many ideas pinned for homemade toiletries and household cleaners.  Now I am pinning them like a mad woman.  Currently, I do make my own laundry detergent and fabric softener, but looking forward to trying out many more of these lovely, frugal and green alternatives.

One lady's blog was full of wonderful recipes for make-your-own items.  You can find her here... http://theblessedhearth.blogspot.com/ .



Lemon Dusting Cloths







Oatmeal Rosemary Bath Bag









Orange Vinegar Household Cleaner
















Another great blog for "make your own" recipes is http://www.onegoodthingbyjillee.com/ .  Hope you enjoy perusing these sites and experimenting with a few of the recipes.
Joining Selena's Thrift Share Monday here http://apronthriftgirl.typepad.com/apron_thrift_girl/ as I believe these ideas are quite thrifty. :)

It is pretty much Spring here in Florida.  Yesterday was in the mid 80's.  Hardly saw winter this year - or what northerners would call autumn (we really don't get winter here).  Hope you are enjoying a lovely March!
