DYMO Organizer Xpress Label Maker




I absolutely love this label maker. It is so easy to use. It has a 49 character dial wheel. You just turn the dial to the letter you like to print and then push the trigger. When you are finished you turn the dial to the scissors and push the trigger and it cuts the label for you. The labels have a tab on the end that makes it easy to peel off. Then you can stick the label to whatever you'd like. I am so happy I received this to review. It made labeling my craft room easier. 



I received this product for free to test and review from Smiley360. #LabelsMadeEasy # GotItFree






Sorry the picture is sideways. But I enlarged it so you can see the labels easier.

Homemade Laundry Soap

I made homemade laundry soap. I'm loving it. It made about a 3 Gallon bucket give or take but I put it in smaller tubs to store easier. It smells great I used Sun Kissed Flowers.

Here's the recipe:

3 Fels Naptha bars (I found it already shaved at Walmart so I didn't have to shave it)- $2.64

1 box Arm & Hammer Washing Soda (55 oz)- $3.97

1 box Arm & Hammer Baking Soda (4 lbs)- $2.24

1 box 20 Mule Team Borax (4lbs 12oz)- $3.96

1 tub Oxi-Clean Stain Remover (3 lbs)- $7.56

1 Arm & Hammer Clean Sensations* (28 oz)-$5.00

This time I didn't have to pay for the Borax because I have the bestest mom in the world and she gave me a box. So total invested was $21.41 the tax. Not too bad. You just mix it all in the bucket and only use 1-2 tablespoons per load. Should last up to a year. Depending on how many loads you do. Yields about 575 loads.
