New Bamboo Wipes have arrived!

November 4th, 2011

We’ve just taken delivery of fabulous new bamboo wipes. We’ve gone back to our original supplier for this production run (the same people who make towels for Christy’s) so the quality is superb, really lovely.

The price has gone up slightly, but we think they’re worth paying a little more for and we’re promoting them at £17.50 for 25 wipes.

Check them out….Bamboo Baby Wipes and don’t forget to take a look at our lovely new Rose Geranium & Rose essential oil blend.

FAQ’s: Bamboo, Terry Towelling or Fleece Wipes? What’s the difference?

March 10th, 2011

One question that I’m often asked is ‘What’s the difference between Bamboo and Terry Towelling Wipes?’ Why don’t you supply Fleece wipes?

Softness
Bamboo are noticeably softer than Terry Towelling when dry (just try tumble drying both and then compare!), however when wet this difference isn’t as noticeable. Bamboo feel more silky when wet than Terry and that makes it fantastic for faces and hands.

Absorbency
Bamboo is more absorbent than Terry…but as our wipes are used damp, this doesn’t make much difference to us.

Environmental impact
Bamboo is perceived as being more environmentally friendly as it’s a fast growing plant, however both bamboo and cotton require further processing in order to make them into a usable fabric.

Traction
Because Terry Towelling is slightly coarser than bamboo (comparatively) it gives great traction when cleaning. What this means is that it gets poo off quicker and easier – great when you have a wriggly toddler trying to escape mid nappy change.

Why don’t you supply fleece wipes?
Personally I dislike fleece wipes as I find that because they don’t have fibres, they have a tendency to smear poo like a disposable wipe. Also they aren’t absorbent and I just find them much less pleasant to use, preferring to use Natural fibres where possible. I did try them but as I couldn’t get on with them myself, thought I couldn’t inflict them on unsuspecting mothers to be!

Who needs a magic wand when you’re a mummy?

June 15th, 2010

Inspiration today from Josie over at Sleep is for the Weak and The Moiderer who wrote a lovely piece about being a ‘magic mummy’.

I too am a ‘magic mummy’.  I can do better magic than Harry Potter, Dumbledore or Gandalf.

And I can prove it.  On any given day, come to my house and watch me conjure:

  • a scrumptious meal from two limp spring onions and some leftover chicken
  • missing toys / laptop chargers / cuddlies from thin air

Each morning watch me transform:

  • three  sleepy, scruffy, semi-naked monkeys with bedhair into three beautifully attired, smiling faced cherubs, ready for nursery and school

Each evening watch me as I do my disappearing act:

  • making all the mess of the day (toys, odd socks, random plasters, single piecs of jigsaw) vanish into it’s rightful place
  • …and the biggest disappearing act of them all, is me off to bed by 10pm because I’m knackered!
