I am not really sure how I want to do this, or how it will end up, but I figure you have to start somewhere right? So here we are! One of my New Years Resolutions is to continue to detox our home. I thought I would share my tips, tricks, failures, learning experiences, whatever it may be! So bare with me as I figure out the best and most practical way to share all of this! (I will eventually make this more visually appealing, but for now here is just the barebones info!)

These are a few of the things I have swapped from and to over the last few months and honestly looking at the products it’s been a few years! It has not been an easy process and has definitely taken some time and a lot of research. It can be very overwhelming as well when you are reading labels. One thing my mom always taught me was if you cannot read what is on the label, should you be consuming it? Well here we are many years later finally understanding what my mom meant by that statement and why she did what she did! Marketing is a very powerful tool and something that is easy to fall for, good marketing especially, but when you read the fine print you begin to see that is it not all that it is cracked up to be.

Of course there will probably be things that will be hard to find good swaps for, which is okay. As long as I know I am doing my best and trying to detox our home to the best of my capability without making life miserable.
