I was told to go and look at our local Chinese shop and found them there, I haven’t seen them on Faithful to Nature so that is probably your best bet. Let me know if you have success!

Wow, that sounds amazing! If you would like to a write guest blog telling your story then please be in touch via the Eco Atlas website, it’s a wonderful story to share…

Yes, I’ve seen quite a few recipes with baking soda/bicarb, but someone raised concerns about it being abrasive on the tooth enamel, do you know anything about this? Hydrogen peroxide is an interesting ingredient, such a winner for the household cupboard.

That sounds interesting! Yes, please do report back, I’d love to know how it goes. You would have to crush them up really finely because you wouldn’t want it to be abrasive on the tooth enamel. Happy experimenting!

Yes, I think the olive oil is to make it more liquid, especially in winter when our coconut oil goes so hard! Give it a try and let me know how you go!

The bottles filled with non-recyclable plastic and wrappers, etc. are called Eco Bricks and are used for building, in Port Elizabeth they are building a pre-school from these! As Carol mentioned in the blog we would like to have a similar project here in Plett where we get all the schools involved in keeping their communities litter free and together we build a bench or a bus shelter.

Hi Jayne,

Did you try again and have better luck in loading this blog? I do hope so! Let me know how it went.

All the best,
Rhian
