Way to impress the pants right off of us, Los Angeles!
Los Angeles is going to start a new pilot program with RecycleBank that will compensate households for recycling! The hope is that the city’s recycling rate will go up from 65% to over 70%.
15,000 homes will be eligible for the program and the contents of their tagged bins will be weighed and recorded each week. Depending on the weight, residents earn points that they can redeem at businesses like CVS, Bed Bath & Beyond, and El Pollo Loco. The total tally can reach the equivalent of $400 a year per household!
Super-impressive initiative, LA! Cincinnati…take notes!

Supernatural Botanicals Linen Sprays
It’s finally here….our Linen Sprays! A little background information…If you know me, you know I’m the queen of fabric softener. When I do laundry, I use three capfuls of softener because I just can’t get enough of that fresh scent. But even with three capfuls of softener, the scent does fade within a day or two. I like my sheets and clothes smelling fresh until I wash them again. Out of that desire to have my linens and clothes smelling good all the time came the creation of our Linen Sprays.
Great to use as an instant refreshner to linens and clothes. Perfect as a room spray to eliminate odors. Adds freshness to closets and drawers. If you truly love the smell of fabric softener (like I do), you’ll adore the fresh spring scent of Fabric Softener Fresh Linen Spray. Our Lavender Water Linen Spray is a calm, relaxing scent, perfect for spraying on your sheets right before bedtime for a calm, aromatherapeutic restful sleep.
Check out what’s new at Supernatural Botanicals….you’ll love these Linen Sprays!

I’m always so thankful to get your emails! It puts a huge smile on my face everyday to know you are loving Supernatural Botanicals.
I get emails on a daily basis asking me “what’s the best thing to try?” When I say that I adore everything we make, it’s the truth. Then again, I would…I formulated everything. Still, some remain my favorite amongst all the great things we offer.
I absolutely adore body sprays. I’ve always felt perfumes were too strong and invasive. I have always loved body sprays for their tendency to be lighter and kinder to your senses. You can spray body sprays direclty onto your face for instant refreshing. You can spray body spray in your hair to give you that “just washed” feeling. I always use body sprays on my skin right out of the shower. I have body sprays everywhere…in my car, in my purse, on my desk, in every bathroom in my house, etc.
Take a break from perfumes and give body sprays a try. My favorites (at the moment) are Grapefruit and Beach. At this point, I believe they are my signature scents (always subject to change!) Living life in a constant aroma-therapeutic bliss makes for a beautiful life!

Bottled water is not evil. Sure, it’s gotten a bad rap in the past few years…everything from plastic bottles taking over our landfills to causing cancer. In theory, those things are true, and yes, bottled water can be frowned upon in that regard.
Here’s the upside…keep bottled water out of extremely high temperatures, for instance, your car. Some scientist believe that the plastic can omit toxins into the water when the bottles are extremely hot, thus, perhaps, being the cause of breast cancer. Simply keep your bottles out of the heat and the plastic is otherwise harmless.
About the landfills…Our landfills are being polluted with millions of water bottles. Since the bottles take an estimated 600-1000 years to decompose, it’s an absolutely horrible idea to throw the bottles into the trash. Sadly, only 10% of plastic water bottles are recycled in the US. That means a whopping 90% are going straight to the landfills. It’s so easy to recycle. If you don’t…you should start.
At the end of the day, bottled water is not evil. It can be an evil if you aren’t properly disposing of the bottles and you are letting them sit in a car all day omitting toxins into the water. As long as you follow the rules, bottled water can be a very, very good thing.
