Instead of adding more stuff to your home, spring clean your place with eco-friendly ingredients you already have, and put together eco-friendly DIY crafts instead of purchasing store-bought presents.
I’ve put together this list of resources to help you have a great eco-friendly spring. With all the rain (and snow) that many people are experiencing in their areas, people are staying inside – get crafting with with these projects.
A few of my blogger friends have posted some great articles that will help you clean in a more eco-friendly way. They’ve also sent me some fun and inexpensive (not to mention easy) DIY craft posts. These posts are perfect for gift-giving ideas.
I love this list, because the products are ones you likely already have lying around the house! How to Clean Naturally with these 7 products – Confessions of an Over-Worked Mom. Ellen also wrote a thorough post on How to Clean Your Fridge Naturally.
