IMPORTANT READ!!! - A little bit about my items and fabrics

A Note On Organics and Bamboo For Baby

Important note on bamboo fabrics: the FTC has decided that bamboo fabrics are now to be labelled and called rayon or rayon made from bamboo.  They claim that the fabrics made from the bamboo plants do not retain their anti-microbial properties either, however all rayons have anti-microbial properties therefore even if the bamboo has to be called rayon now it does still have this property....not sure what I believe and I am personally researching this claim with my fabric manufacturer so I can maintain my claim as an environmentally-friendly-baby-item-making-mama. Here is a link from a company manufacturing bamboo fabrics that explains the process a little better and actually compares the process to the process of making other fabrics...personally I still believe bamboo fabrics are considerably less harmful than fabrics made from plants that are grown with pesticides, and the fact that bamboo is a more renewable source for sustainable fabrics makes it environmentally-friendly in that sense....but for you as the consumer it is up to you to decide what is resonable for you and your children...here is a rather helpful link
 
All of my products (excluding the leg warmers, knee protectors, diaper covers, and outer layer of printed diapers) are made from partly organic fabrics.  All partly organic items are made from a bamboo viscose/organic cotton blend fabric (jersey, fleece, terry, and velour). Bamboo is 2-4 times more absorbant than cotton, and has anti-microbial properties, making it the best fabric for cloth diapering needs.  Because of the nature of chemical and natural dyes, the choices on your item colours are limited.  Both chemical and natural dyes contain substances that are not in keeping my organic promises and are not used in my products unless you are purchasing a printed diaper, diaper cover, or leg warmer/knee pad set. The bamboo derived fabrics I use to make all my items is velvety soft and luxurious feeling on the skin, making it perfect for baby wear.
 
My bamboo viscose jersey fabric also has 5% spandex to allow for an incredible stretch that makes my swaddling cloths fit just right and snugly on your baby.
 
My other bamboo viscose products may have up to 2% polyester to hold them together beautifully, the poly is only on the back side of the velour and terry and will not be touching your baby, it is nigh unto impossible to find a bamboo viscose velour without poly due to the nature of the fabric, the poly is there to hold it together. Almost any bamboo viscose fabric on the market will have a small amount of poly in it to hold it together.
 
Velour= 70% viscose from bamboo, 28% organic cotton, 2% polyester backing
Fleece= 70% viscose from bamboo, 30% organic cotton
Jersey= 70% viscose from bamboo, 25% organic cotton, 5% spandex
Terry= 70% viscose from bamboo, 28% organic cotton, 2% polester backing
 
I believe in "honesty is the best policy", you will not find any false advertising with my products, I stand up for the quality of all my items, have a question???....feel free to ask!
 
A Note On My Soap Products
 
All of my baby and adult sized soaps are made from an organic oil soap base, essential oils, moisturizing and nourishing oils, and organic additives like organic oatmeal.  None of my soaps have dyes in them, if they have a certain colour it is from the essential oils or additives in your handmade soap. All of my baby soaps use only the safest additives and essential oils for baby, this is backed up by extensive research on baby-safe oils and essential oils. Baby soaps will be premade, or have only a few options on scent choices, adult sized soaps will have a very wide variety of scents to choose from so you can mix and match your own custom scent.
 
Organic Soap Base Ingredients: Glycerin, Aqua, Sodium Palmate (from palm oil), Sorbitol (sugar alcohol), Sodium Cocoate (coconut fatty acid salts), Palm Acid, Coconut Acid, Pentasodium Pentetate (pentetic salts), Tetrasodium Etidronate.
 
The soap is not 100% organic, however all of the oils used to make the base are 100% organic

 
A Note On My Bath and Body Cosmetic Products
 
None of my bath, body, or baby products contain preservatives, they also do not contain water in the ingredients. Mixtures of powdered or oil nature do not necessarily need a preservative to have a reasonable shelf-life. I do not use preservatives because there isn't a readily available "natural" preservative that is 100% natural or that has been tested properly. I realise that you run the risk of spoilage in products without a preservative but none of my products are ones that would go unused in a few months. Deodorants, baby powders and diaper rash salves will all last around 6 months to a year without a preservative, you can prolong their shelf life and decrease your risk of untimely spoilage by storing your liquid deodorant and baby rash salve in the fridge. Ultimately it is your choice on whether or not you want to use a preservative-free 100% natural product or a product with chemical preservatives, do your own research and make an educated decision for you and your family.
