Luxe Living for Less
Before Conrad was born, I procrastinated a little on a few things. Like doing baby laundry! I waited until the last minute to buy baby-safe detergent from Amazon and low-and-behold, the first shipment leaked all over the place so I had to return it. The second shipment got lost in transit. Needless to say, my stress level started to rise.
Seventh Generation reached out at the perfect time and offered to send me some of their baby laundry detergent to try out. I’m already a fan of their powdered detergent which scored an A on the EWG consumer guide, so I was definitely up for trying their baby detergent as well. Don’t you just love the bottle? It’s made from cardboard! So cool π
Not only did they send me their baby laundry detergent, but they also sent along some newborn sized diapers. Which was ALSO a procrastination moment. I actually registered for newborn diapers, but received bigger sized diapers as a gift by accident. So…not only did I not have clean clothes for Conrad to wear, I didn’t have diapers either (!). And this was a couple of days before my due date! Talk about waiting until the last minute.
The Seventh Generation newborn diapers are great! Conrad was 6lbs 13oz when he was born and Arden was 6lbs 3oz, so I knew we’d need some smaller sized diapers. All of the other (eco-friendly) newborn diapers we checked out looked way too big. The Seventh Generation newborn size fit perfectly. Big sigh of relief. We love the newborn diapers so much that we decided to get Arden the Seventh Generation pull-ups as well. She uses them at night and during naps.
And have you tried the Seventh Generation wipes? They’re the perfect combo of wetness without being “soapy” and thickness without being too heavy. So happy to have discovered all of these goodies! By the way, I’m not being paid for this post, other than being sent some products to try out. I just wanted to share my opinions with you guys because I’m such a fan of the products so far.

As you all know I’m all about a good deal π But what most of you might not know about me is that I’m all about being green as well. Ever since Arden was born, I’ve been slowly making our home as green as possible. We eat mostly organic, we use eco-friendly household cleaners, we use glassware instead of plasticware. Even Arden’s nursery is filled with organic and all-natural fabrics and materials. I’ve tried my share of organic cotton sheets and towels and even clothing, but I have to admit my number one favorite earth-friendly fabric is bamboo. I’ve finally converted all of our towels to bamboo (once our old ones have worn out). And I can’t tell you how super soft and fluffy, yet lightweight (and fast drying) bamboo towels are.
