Finally a printable iPod skin!  I’ve been wanting to customize my iPod for quite a while, but I can never find a pre-designed skin that I like.  This product from iaPeel retails for around 20 bucks (only a few dollars more than a single pre-printed skin from GelaSkins or Skinit) and you get 5 printable skins and design software.  I’m totally hooked.  They worked in my inkjet printer just like a regular sheet of photo paper and were amazingly simple to apply.  Best of all, as a proud parent (bordering on obnoxious), I can plaster pictures of my kids all over my iPod.

Many parents are concerned with providing a healthy home environment for their babies and kids. According to the EPA, the average home contains as much as 25 pounds of toxic cleaning products, with the air in our homes being 3 to 7 times more chemically polluted than outdoor air, pollution and all. Keep baby’s nursery clean, naturally, with the Eco-Me Home Kit. Each Home Kit allows parents to mix up a non-toxic All Purpose Spray Cleaner, Wood Polish Spray Cleaner and Scrub Cleanser, guaranteeing a healthy, non-toxic nursery and home. The Home Kit includes reusable spray bottles, jar with lid, natural bristle scrub brush, mixer, microfiber cleaning cloth, and a bottle of Home Cleaning Essential Oil. Eco-Me’s proprietary blend of essential oils aid in removing dirt, mildew, mold, water stains and other household grime. The amazing 100% natural essential oils (a mix of tea tree, lavender, lemongrass and rosemary) are naturally antiseptic and antibacterial. They smell great and give an extra cleaning boost! Each bottle of Eco-Me essential oil blend will last for 2 fills of each product, that’s 6 cleaning products in just 1 kit!

With the Eco-Me Baby Kit, parents can make their own non-toxic Baby Room Spray, chemical-free Baby Clean Wipes, and a 100% natural, chemical-free Diaper Pail Freshener, by mixing white vinegar, water and baking soda with the included Baby Blend Essential plant oil. Each Baby Kit contains reusable scoops, mixers, jars, spray bottles, flushable baby wipes, and a super-soft hooded baby towel–100% Cotton, of course.

SPECIAL OFFER: Free baby wipes refill (that’s 25 wipes!) with purchase of both the Eco-Me Home Kit and the Eco-Me Baby Kit.

Painting the nursery? Remember to use a paint with low VOC, or a Low Odor Paint, and keep plenty of baby wipes on hand. Baby wipes are not only great at cleaning the dust off of trim before you begin painting, but they easily remove paint splatters from your hands (or face, arms, shoes…). Unsteady hands? Novice-painter? Baby wipes easily clean wet paint off of trim.
