GIVEAWAY! Natural Laundry Soap ~ Soap Nuts


Soap what?!
You heard me.
Nuts.
From a tree.
They will clean your clothes in the... cleanest way.
I should be a salesman, I tell you.

I received a bag of these last month and have absolutely loved them.  It's green.  It's crunchy.  It's effective.  And talk about no packaging!  Think about the bulky containers laundry soap comes in.  Now look at the picture above.  Once you've washed about six loads with four of these nuts in the cute bag provided (you get about 20 nuts in a sample bag), the nuts are ready to be composted.  No waste, folks!  I can't tell you how happy this makes me.  Also, these nuts are...

 BABY & H.E. SAFE!

Soap nuts produce very little suds, so they are perfect for your High-Efficiency washing machine.  They are also fragrance, dye, and additive-free, and they are 100% hypo-allergenic; perfect for baby's soft skin.

Want to see for yourself?  Nutz4Soap has graciously offered to give away SIX sample bags of soap nuts to my beautiful readers!  There are oh so many ways to enter:

    My friend boils her used soapnuts to get all the soap out of the shells, then dilutes it to spray on her plants to kill pests. Works like a charm!
