Featured Product Spotlight: Brightly Green All-Natural Laundry Wash

 

 

FACTS:  HE natural laundry detergents are more gentle on your clothes.  The enzymes in HE cleaners clean your clothes without breaking down the fibers as regular detergents do.  Washing your clothes with HE natural detergents takes less detergent than standard ones; thus saving you money.  HE natural cleaners also saves the life of your clothes as they are more gentle on the fabric. 

ISSUES: Many standard detergents have so called brighteners added to them.  These toxic additives can be harmful to your clothes and the environment.  People with sensitive skin also benefit from HE natural laundry cleaners because standard cleaners can have toxic chemicals that irritate the skin. 

WHAT TO DO:

Switch to Brightly Green All-Natural Laundry Wash for a cleaner, healthier wash and for a healthier eco-friendly environment. 

 

Use Brightly Green Laundry Wash... good for you & eco-friendly too!

Is Laundry a REAL Chore?!

Laundry, in many households
is a never ending mountain to maintain. 

Brightly Green All-Natural Cleaners
has some very helpful tips to help you
get control over this never ending chore!




How to save yourself precious time and
help save the earth too:

First: If you have children that are tall enough to reach the bottom of the washtub; they may be ready to learn how to do their own laundry.  My grandchildren were taught how to do their own laundry when they could easily reach the bottom of the washing machine's tub. (It can even be a celebration for children when they can reach the bottom of the washing machine's tub because they see how they are growing!  This was the case for my youngest grandchild!) Teaching your children to be responsible for their laundry is a very important life skill; and it will free you up to do other things.

Also, it may help to have a set day for each child to do his/her laundry.  No more is mom "the bad guy" if the child runs out of underwear or socks, it's not mom's responsibility anymore!

Second:  Say NO to IRONING!!
Don't you have something you would rather be doing...really!
Try to remove your clothes from the washing machine as soon as they are done.  This will help to cut down on wrinkles forming.  In addition; take each article of clothing out of the washer one at at time and shake the piece of clothing before placing it in the dryer.  This will only take a couple of minutes but this tip will help the clothing to dry evenly and more quickly-$aving energy costs!  Very eco-friendly too!

When removing clothes from the dryer--DO SO PROMPTLY WHEN FINISHED DRYING!  This is the final tip to help prevent wrinkles.  I've talked to various people who can reminisce about the days their mothers and grandmothers ironed EVERYTHING!  Those days are behind us, so following these tips will save you time and energy.

Speaking of saving energy--if at all possible, hang your clothes outside on a clothesline.  Let nature dry your clothing and enjoy the smell of truly fresh linen!  If you need to you can bring the clothes in and toss them in the dryer for a couple minutes to make them softer (they tend to dry somewhat stiff outdoors).

Third:  Choose the right detergent
Not all detergents are equal.  Go with an HE natural laundry wash even if your machine is not an HE machine.  Natural detergents actually lengthen the life of your clothing, while still getting your clothes clean.  We highly recommend Brightly Green All-Natural Laundry Wash.  Come back tomorrow for more eco-friendly facts!  We will feature Brightly Green Natural Laundry Wash and give you more information about the pros and cons of various laundry products...Eco-friendly Laundry Washes and Toxic Detergents.

Holiday - New Year Clean Up!

Brightly Green Congratulates

Judy S. from Louisville, KY!

Judy is our HG Labs Holiday Notebook Contest Winner!!!

Holiday Clean Up is Underway:

Before tucking away all your holiday decorations; ask yourself the following question.  Is there any decoration or ornament that I did not use this year, and if so, will I use it next year?  If you didn't use that decoration or ornament & do not plan to next year, then why not give it away to a resale shop!  Now is the time to purge your holiday items.  This will help you to keep only what you really need and create more space in your home or garage!

Cleaning Inventory Checklist:

Go through your cleaning supplies and start this new year off on the right Green, Eco-friendly foot!  Properly dispose of any toxic cleaning products you may have in your home.  Make this year the start of a healthy, safe, green year for cleaning!

If you have a two story home, it is helpful to have the necessary cleaning supplies on both levels.  This will only help you to be more efficient in getting the job done quickly and effortlessly.  Make your list of the Brightly Green cleaners you need for both floors and order today!

Many of us are sending our students back to college; why not send them back with safe, green cleaners.  Brightly Green Cleaners are 100% natural, plant-based and sustainable.  Most come scented with our unique essential oil combinations; great for freshening up dorm rooms!  We recommend for your student:  Brightly Green Multi-Purpose Cleaner Concentrate, Brightly Green Carpet & Upholstery Spot Remover Concentrate.  For their laundry needs; send them back with Brightly Green All Natural Laundry Wash Lavender (or Pure & Free).

If your student has already left; surprize him/her with a care package.  College students always welcome care packages from home!
