The hubby got me the clothes rack that I've been wanting. It's the Ikea Frost drying rack. I was surprised on how big it actually is when you open it up! What a nice early mother's day gift :-) Here it is with a full load of diaper laundry. Have a happy crunchy green healthy day! :-)

Pearl Earrings and pouch Giveaway

Image
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

Image
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 :-) ...
