It’s Our Blogiversary… Check out our top 10 posts of all times!

March 8, 2016 by mydarlaclementine Leave a Comment

Our blog has officially been live for one year!!  Woohoo!  This may not seem like the biggest feat for some of you readers, but let me tell you, it is for me!  This past year has been an incredibly fun balancing act of learning how to blog about living naturally and parenting well, while still finding time to do just that: live naturally and parent well!

Top 10 DIY and Natural Living Posts of All Times! Going green with breast pumping, Elimination communication, DIY nursing top, How to go No 'Poo with Bentonite Clay and more!!

I have loved building a community here, writing about my passions, and also listening and learning from your comments and stories!  Thank you for joining in our journey!  (P.S. If you aren’t following yet, I invite you to start now!  Let’s be pals!)

And now, I present to you…

our Top 10 DIY & Natural Living Blog posts of all times (as voted by your views)!

#8 | How to Wash Your Hair (Go No ‘Poo) with Bentonite Clay

The rumors are true – I don’t wash my hair and haven’t for more than 14 months now!  I use mud (well, clay) to cleanse my hair weekly, and I will never turn back.  Get on board!  BONUS: “Natural Beauty with Bentonite Clay” Printable Checklist!

#4 | Why I Unweaned My Toddler

After being weaned for over a year, we successfully unweaned our toddler.  What does that mean, exactly, and why would we intentionally take a parenting step “backward?”  Let me tell you…

#3 | Living Without a Microwave

Microwaves are one convenience that many Americans are attached to!  In this popular post, I not only discuss reasons why giving microwave ovens the boot is a worthwhile choice, but also supply practical tips and solutions for living without one.

#2 | 4 Rules for Laundering Cloth Diapers

Proper laundering is absolutely essential to the success of cloth diapers.  These four rules are often overlooked or misunderstood, and in my Mama Bear opinion, have the power to make or break your fluff experience!

And the top post of all times is…

#1 Jawline Potion for Teething Babes!

Instead of using numbing gels, dissolving tablets, or any type of internal medication to help with teething pain, we have opted for a natural massage potion that is rubbed into the cheeks and jawline.  This method is completely child-safe, and it soothes and calms from several angles (aromatherapy/inhalation, topical, and massage).  BONUS: Also includes a Chamomile Teething Cloth Recipe!
