Eco-Friendly Purchase from Mimi & Colette

I love this Swiffer cover I bought from Mimi & Colette. First, I want to make it clear that I have never used a Swiffer as they are sold with those disgusting-smelling chemical-soaked disposable things that you put on them. My sister bought me the Swiffer a long time ago, and it just sat with the broom and did not get used.

When I saw that people could now buy a reusable cotton cover for this cleaning gadget, I thought that was pretty cool. I ordered mine from Mimi & Colette on Zibbet.com. They come in all different colors, made from 100% Cotton. You can wash them over and over. Nothing to ever throw into the landfills. That makes me very happy.

Look how products from Mimi & Colette arrive in the mail...wrapped beautifully...so you can order from her shop and have the items mailed directly to the person who want to give a gift to. That saves a lot of postage costs, and you don't have to gift wrap it and go to the post office.



I LOVE how Mimi & Colette did not use tape on the tissue!!! Look at this, so neat! I can fold up that tissue and REUSE the paper and the ribbon.


And here's my reusable cotton Swiffer cover which she sent to me with a really nice personally hand written thank you card and a FREE GIFT!!! Mimi & Colette sent a wonderful cotton hand made wash cloth and I just LOVE the purple. 

I HIGHLY recommend this Zibbet shop. So stop on by Mimi & Colette and see all the other wonderful items she makes.

Excitement at the post office today

I know, I know I owe this blog some blog posts, but this one has to jump ahead and be posted now. My daughter went in the post office to get the mail and came out smiling with packages held behind her back. She knew I had been waiting for an envelope from my friend Tami. One of the packages arrived today and so did a book from Paperbackswap.

The package from Tami AKA he Ole Bag Lady was stuffed with fabric bags she made for my mirrors that I sell. I had mailed the fabric to her and she did the sewing. I'll be matching these bags up with mirrors in my shop.  The fabric is new from recycled fabric sample books.



The book we got today is "Staying at Sam's" a children's book about how different families can be. It was a controversial book that was out of print for many years and very hard to find. I have seen copies of it being sold for a few hundred dollars. However, it has finally been reprinted by a new publisher so might be hard to sell for a few hundred now. I now have two copies of the original book, 1989, and might decide to sell one at Wild Goose Chase.



There is one more thing I got in the mail today, but that's a surprise for tomorrow.

I have 4 Zibbets I invite you check out.






Thanks for reading,
Judy
a full-time a zibbeter and loving it
