DIY Recipes

DIY Okay, so here’s the thing. I am not crafty. At all. I don’t have the imagination, skill set, or patience for it… I even have a board on Pinterest that is for Crafts I’ll Never Do. That being said, I used to ~~run away in fear~~ just sort of tune out whenever I came across something that was DIY ~ Do It Yourself.

But I’ve discovered that there’s some things, that even I can do. YAY! They might not actually be considered crafty, but if it’s something I can do myself that I used to buy already done, it counts! What are my DIY projects? Making personal care and household products, using essential oils and natural ingredients. Pre-made, store-bought products have so many chemicals and toxins in them, that they actually come with warnings!

Do natural products work as well as chemicals? Well, I guess it depends on the products being compared. Vinegar is as disinfecting as bleach, but is completely non-toxic. So is peroxide. And essential oils have properties that make them perfect to use for cleaning, and physical wellness (ahem… due to the FDA gag order, I’m not allowed to share what those properties are). I’m pretty sure I won’t ever be able to remove all chemicals and toxins from my home and wellness routine, but I’m doing what I can!
