Using Cloth Napkins and Towels

Posted on February 13, 2013 by The Soulicious Life

Today, I’m thrilled to be guest-posting over at Life Renewed, where Emily has embarked on a fabulous initiative in 2013 called Green in 365. Each month, she is focusing on a few areas of the house or a special holiday, and every day, there is an eco-friendly post related to one of those areas! I just love each one of her daily short tips which are practical and easy to implement.

I’m joining three other guest contributors for the yearl-long Green in 365 series: Renee at Joyful Mom; Hilary from Accidentally Green; and Sara from Your Thriving Family. Each Wednesday, one of us will join Emily for a guest post with an eco-friendly tip for your home.

Please join me today over at Life Renewed for the Kitchen: Using Cloth Napkins and Towels. Hope to see you there!
