Stretching pennies

GladRags sells them, along with washable organic cotton pads, if you want some backup.
Didn't know that. Do they have washable and reuseable nursing pads, too?

I'm not sure. If they don't, though, they probably know someone who does.

Very cool.

Using two bits of flannel with quilt lining sewn between makes wonderful burp cloths. i have a pattern for them somewhere... made to look like maxi pads, but with little curves cut out of the center so they fit snug against a person's neck without getting all scrunched up.

Growing a couple of pennyroyal plants will completely rid you of the need for mosquito spray. Just rub a couple of sprigs on exposed skin and go.

Instead of buying throw away feminine products every month, either make your own (thick pads of flannel sewn to shape work well) and wash them or get a product such as a moon cup or diva cup. They're little silicone thingies. Mine cost about $40 with cost of shipping, but i haven't had to buy another product since.


My divacup was the best thing i've bought.

here's a link to a site showing how to make your own feminine products, if you're handy that way.
