The world wide web says this: “A typical family of four uses about 75–100 rolls of paper towels per year… costing around $100–190.” 😳 Yikes!

Guess what. ONE Swedish dishcloth replaces around 17 rolls of paper towels. So… I got a fun idea 💡

What if I bundled a FULL YEAR of cute Swedish dishcloth designs together?

Win win win:
✨ You get a year’s worth of seasonal Swedish dishcloths
✨ I get to rotate through my seasonal inventory in a fun way
✨ Mother Earth is happier too 🌎

Swedish dishcloths are reusable, washable, compostable and honestly way cuter than a paper towel roll.

Yeah. I think I’m going to try this idea at next week’s market 👀

Just me doing extremely important business activities… like arranging my bar soaps by color and getting dizzy for content. 🌈🌀

This unboxing got more ridiculous with every layer 😂📦

A big box… carrying a smaller box… carrying tiny tins… carrying laundry cubes ✨

But these cubes are worth the drama:
✔️ PVA-free
✔️ Fragrance-free
✔️ Dissolve in hot or cold water
✔️ Naturally tackle stains & odors

Simple ingredients. Concentrated cleaning. Less waste 🌎

Oh! And don't toss the tin, because refill cubes are coming soon 👀

Bulk delivery day! Guess how many dishwasher cubes are in this box 👀📦

These little helpers are from Nellie's Clean, a company I wholeheartedly support. Their Dishwasher Cubes are an eco-friendly, PVA-free alternative to traditional dishwasher pods.

Biene now carries them unpackaged and in bulk, so you can grab exactly what you need with less waste 💚

So, how many do you think are in this box? Closest guess wins bragging rights 😉

Haaaa!!! Managed to unload and set up my little Eco Village on one 6-foot table in just 33 minutes. I’m calling that a personal victory 😂

The three doll houses are making their Kane County debut today — each one represents a different stage of the eco journey, and I love watching St. Charles folks stop to explore all the little details 🏡💚

PS: I brought last-minute Mother’s Day gifts! If the mom in your life loves Mother Earth as much as I do, I’ve got some really sweet sustainable goodies waiting for her ✨

I’ll be here until noon today!

🚨 EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH 🚨 Please join me in celebrating… Caroline, our Inventory Specialist!

A true ray of sunshine ☀️ (…especially when she’s counting swedish dish clothes for the 47th time and questioning all her life choices.)

She bravely faces spreadsheets, product counts, and the emotional rollercoaster that is inventory management. Just so the rest of us can pretend everything is “in stock and thriving.”

Her dedication? Unmatched.
Her enthusiasm? …we’re working on it.

But for real: Someone give that lady some smelly markers to lighten her mood. Or better! Help with the WIX Square integration issue. She would love you for that!

Proof that eco-friendly doesn’t have to mean extra work 🌿

It’s Teacher Appreciation Week, friends! And I just made this stress-free for a local mom: she ordered online, chose beginner-friendly eco swaps, and I delivered everything (gift-ready + labeled with child & teacher name) straight to the school.

Do you still need help with teacher gifts? I’m here for you and personally deliver across DuPage & Kane County 🤍

Just me fan-girling over here 🤭💚 Got to hang with Bev & Kay from SCARCE (Kay started this incredible organization!) and honestly—the Growin’ Green event is bursting with community love. The SCARCE team did such a beautiful job putting it all together, and I’m so grateful to be part of it 🌿✨

Sun is shining, no scary rain clouds in sight, and my little eco village is getting such positive feedback 🏡

If you’re nearby—come say hi in Addison until 1pm!!

Welcome to my little eco neighborhood 🏡 (yes, I’ve spent way too many hours painting dollhouses the past weeks 😅)

Green = easy swaps (no habit changes)
Yellow = ready to grow
Pink = low-waste pro
No pressure, just progress 🌿 Where would you land?
