Giveaway: Organic Alternative for Baby Kolton's Laundry with Friendsheep Eco Dryer Balls

I pulled Baby Kolton's blankets out of the dryer the other day and I thought I was going to get shocked to death with all the static!  Holy smokes! I used a dryer sheet but only one because they have a lot of scents and perfumes on them.  I don't want to expose his newborn sensitive skin to that yet.

Then I remembered there's such a thing as wool dryer balls, so I started looking for companies online that not only carry them but have the best quality materials.  I came across Friendsheep Eco Dryer Balls and decided they were the ones.  Let's travel back to Nepal where the dryer balls are individually hand made for fair wages from 100% premium organic New Zealand Wool.  We can use these dryer balls over a 1000+ times, so what's that a weeks worth of laundry in our house?  No, really, they should last a little while which is nice!

The Friendsheep Dryer Balls are biodegradable, chemical free, scent free, hypoallergenic, and last but not least baby safe!  How do they work?  You simply toss them in the dryer with your wet clothing and they tumble with and in between your clothes. The dryer balls soak up moisture and allow additional air flow drying your clothes faster and reducing wrinkles and static!

So what do we think?  I love that they are made of 100% organic wool and are chemical and additive free!  I love that they completely replace my dryer sheets (which I'm almost out of anyways darn the luck). If one day, I want the scent in my clothing like that which comes from dryer sheets, I can add some essential oils but for now I like that they are safe for Kolton.  I love that they help dry his clothes faster and his blankets are less "shocking" when I'm trying to put them away.    Oh and I LOVE how stinking cute these are!  Friendsheep has several different designs.  Aren't these koala ones just too cute?!

I also received a set of Organic Fabric Freshener. They are these cute little shapes that are loaded with their signature scent "Sun is Shining".  I loved the blend of lavender and orange so much that I put them in my car!  My car smells amazing now!  They are up front by the dash under the middle console and when I open my trunk I can smell them! Plus they're not overpowering when I'm up front.  I love these little boogers!  Plus eventually when the scent wears off, I can just add some more and they are usable over and over again!

  2. I'm definitely interested in the wool balls. I am trying to do natural with the new baby. We dont wash his clothes with ours and use baby laundry soap. I haven't used dryer sheets because I'm scared of him breaking out. I'm hoping to eventually start using natural everything a little at a time!

  5. I love this kind of things, and I use fabric fresheners, but I think they're not organic. Hope to find some more eco friendly fresheners soon. :)
