Organic Baby Stuff SALE ALERT!

Today is an exciting day at one of my favorite organic baby and children's clothes stores, Go Natural Baby!

Firstly, I have my very own guest post on the Go Natural Baby Blog! Go check it out, and maybe even leave a comment or "digg it" to make it seem like I have fans *wink*.


Also, there is a HUGE BLOWOUT SALE staring today, with 40-50% off of organic baby bedding, blankets, some clothing items, and dolls!
Personally I'm drooling over this adorable Organic Cotton Baby Doll by Sckoon, which is now only $6.00!!!

Go shopping to your heart's content using coupon code: joy at checkout (stock up for Christmas and future baby showers!) Be sure to save me one of those dolls though...

Also on sale are these amazing fair-trade baskets, hand-woven in the historical town of Bolgatanga, Ghana in West Africa.

The Gathering Basket, pictured with Deeds, is now only $15! These baskets are truly works of art. You can feel the quality as soon as you wrap your fingers around the leather handle.

The pail shaped basket is also on my list; at only $13.20 I cannot pass this up!

I saw baskets similar to this at Whole Foods Market one time for about $40!

Jojo wanted one then, but I said "DON"T TOUCH THAT!" (I'm always afraid that high prices might be contagious; I can hardly shop there without hyperventilating). Now he has one from Go Natural Baby, so he shouldn't be traumatized.

Besides the attractive design, this basket is woven of soft elephant grass fibers. The handle is wrapped in hand-tanned leather. It smells like an open field on a breezy spring day. It is a piece of art!
Sometimes my desire for a good bargain meets conflict with my desire for high quality, eco-friendly, and socially conscious products. Things like this beautiful basket push me closer to the good.

At Go Natural Baby's online store you can find Fair Trade and organic cotton clothes for babies and children up to 4T.

This mama-owned company is “bringing the richness of organic cotton and the values of fair trade into the lives of our children”. What a worthy goal!

Inside Out Kidz

It is so exciting that "going green" is a bona fide trend in America these days. One of the fringe benefits is that there are LOTS of new earth-friendly companies now that sell a seemingly endless variety of products.

I really enjoy finding organic children's clothing companies that are new to me. Most recently, I was introduced to Inside Out Kidz!

Inside Out Kidz desires to help children be healthy in a healthy environment by creating onesies, lap-tees, and t-shirts that are 100% certified organic unbleached cotton.


The shirts are printed with simple designs and meaningful messages using water based inks that do not contain PVCs!

Inside Out Kidz clothing is made in the USA!

Use coupon code IOKPROMO for 20% off your order, until December 11, 2008!

Inside Out Kidz wants to give one My Greening reader an Inside Out Kidz clothing item in YOUR choice of style, color, and size! (*$18 value*)

*Congrats to the winner, Team Chilton who said...

I LOVE the yellow with the flowers, visor style for a girl. LOVE IT....if I have a boy, I'd go with an ear flap style with the khaki color and blue, so hard to choose! Either way, probably 6-12 month size. Awesome giveaway!

SoapNuts for Everyone!

Snuggly, fresh laundry, anyone? Remember my previous review on SoapNuts from Laundry Tree? Since my last post about SoapNuts, my mother, who is not a hippy, has embraced SoapNuts. And some friends of mine, who ARE hippies, are exploring the possibility of stocking SoapNuts in their store. SoapNuts cross the barriers of age, creed, color, religion, and lifestyle. Hooray for SoapNuts!

Now, LaundryTree is giving away 5 SoapNuts samples to 5 lucky My Greening readers! And ONE lucky winner will receive a SoapNuts Starter Pack, which is a 100g package of SoapNuts and 1 oz. of scented oil in the aroma of your choice! That is a value of $15.00!




Reasons why SoapNuts are good for the environment:

• One little drawstring bag of 3 to 4 SoapNuts can be used FOUR TIMES! The same four SoapNuts can wash 4 loads of laundry!
  
• SoapNuts are organically grown (chemical free!).
• SoapNuts are biodegradable. After they have done their four loads of laundry (did you just READ THAT?), just toss them into the compost pile.

Since SoapNuts are free of chemicals, they are great for sensitive skin (like eczema). I'm really loving SoapNuts for my entire family!

I was thinking how convenient SoapNuts would be for traveling...no zip-lock bag of detergent to spill when you are trying to do laundry on vacation (in the condo or laundry mat)!

If you check out the website, there are recipes for making other types of cleaning supplies out of SoapNuts...try SoapNut Soak!

LaundryTree would like to give away samples of SoapNuts to FIVE MyGreening readers! The sample size includes 8 SoapNuts...enough for up to 8 loads of laundry!

To enter, just leave a comment on this post telling me which of the scented oils from Laundry Tree you would like if you are the BIG SoapNuts Starter Kit Winner ($15 value)!

FIVE winners will be chosen to receive a SoapNuts Sample pack.

This contest will close on June 17, 9pm CST.

A total of SIX winners will be selected by Random Number Generator.

If you don't win, or if you just need to restock,

Laundry Tree has also offered to extend the discount code for My Greening readers! Until 7/1/08, you can get 10% off the 100g bag of SoapNuts using the coupon code MYGREENING.
