The kids and I made time for sewing this morning. We stitched up some lavender sachets to hand beside their beds. Lupine had talked me into a charm pack (5 " squares of gorgeous fabric) a few weeks back, so we made quick work of the sachets by leaving the raw edges exposed.
The children were so focused as they stuffed the pouches with lavender flowers. Sweet dreams for all this night!

As an aside, welcome to our new readers!
For those of you just discovering Clean, we've had an unusual couple of weeks. We hosted a Babywearing Celebration last week, and this week has been comprised of short posts and giveaway winners (not our normal scene).
Wander through the archives or check back later this week to see us what usually goes on around here. We're a homeschooly, crafty, organic-baking, whole-foods, laundry on the line and dishes in the sink sort of place.
See you soon!
Peace,
Rachel
I love your blog. I just stumbled upon it thanks to your post about homemade toothpaste. I just made some this morning! Thanks!
Thanks KC! Do let me know what your family thinks of the toothpaste. My kids are loving it with Sweet Orange EO only (No more mint, which according to Lulu tastes like moldy cake.) 🙂

I made two versions of the toothpaste. One with peppermint and the other with clove oil. Clove is supposed to help strengthen tooth enamel. I really like the mint. The clove will take a little more getting used too. My husband has bad teeth to I’m trying to help him out as much as I can. After reading about how much nutrition effects your teeth I’ve even changed our diet.
