As soon as I became a mother, I started looking at the world a little differently. I want to leave this Earth (amongst many other things) HABITABLE for my sweet babes and grandchildren, etc.
So when I find a brand that is eco conscious, I love to try their products and support them the best I can. Insert: FRIENDSHEEP.
Friendsheep is the cutest brand that is both eco friendly, fair trade and hand woven. They sell everything from dryer balls to air fresheners to essential oils and more. But we’ll get to that in a minute because first I want to chat about the brand itself. Here are 5 reasons to check out FRIENDSHEEP

All of their products are handmade with love by underprivileged women and people with disabilities in Nepal. As per their website, ” Ethical working conditions, medical care, education and purpose to empower people while respecting animals and nature.” If you want to take a peek at the behind the scenes, head to their youtube channel here.
