Pearl Earrings and pouch Giveaway

I  got these pearl earrings free from sneakpeek but they're too small for my taste, so I'm giving them away.

As you can see they are tiny tiny!  I think they would be ok for a little girl to play dress up. :-)

 
Also giving away a small sample zippered bag that I just received in the mail from Target. It would be a nice wipe travel bag.

Just go down to the Rafflecopter and enter as soon as it goes live on 5/3, will run it till 5/13
This is my first giveaway EVER so bear with me here :-)


 

Using Ikea "burp" cloths as Flat diapers

I have been wanting to give the Ikea burp cloths a try as flat cloth diapers, so hubby picked up a pack of 2 for me. Here are my findings.

 

 

 

Nowhere on the package will it say that they're burp cloths. He found them at an end cap by the kids section. They're 27 1/2 by 27 1/2. The two in the package are one white and one print.  They're 100 % cotton.

This one had a cute print. I do not know if they make them in other prints though.

And now for the folding. Just fold it down to the size you need, use it as a prefold with or without snappi.

 You also fold both together or fold the white one and use it as an extra soaker pad.

 

 

I poured 4 ounces of water on top of the soaker and it absorbed it all, so far so good, I think it can handle another 4 ounces since it was not saturated after the first 4.

 This is how they look on the kids.

 On a VERY WIGGLY 1 year old :-) sloppy job folding but Hey I got it on her!  She's 20 lbs.

 Here it is on my 30 lb almost 3 year old.

 So there you have it. Ikea burp cloths used as Flat diapers.

Have a Crunchy Green Healthy day! :-)
