going "green"

Going “Green” is a big deal now days…not just because it’s good for the environment but also because it is good for our health and our family. Below are a couple things to think about when you set out to clean and organize your home!

Consider purchasing organizing products from companies that adhere to environmentally sustainable manufacturing practices.

Consider buying products that are good for the Earth, such as clothing with natural fibers, like cotton and wool. Look into paper and other items that have been made of recycled materials.

You may not think it is a big deal to go green when you clean. However, many commercially available chemicals persist in the environment without breaking down. Use recycled and biodegradable products whenever possible. Products like white vinegar and hydrogen peroxide work for safely cleaning most surfaces in your home.

Adapting a go green lifestyle is about being conscious of the environment and taking care of it in all that we do to organize our lives.
