Fels-Naptha to the rescue!

So, we’re all aware of Clayton’s recent (unsuccessful) impersonation of Evel Kenivel and the subsequent trip to the Emergency Room. Let’s just say that the rumor that head wounds bleed a lot is NO RUMOR. It is for real, people! I could not believe what I was seeing! Needless to say, besides my beautiful 5 year old little boy covered in blood and having a gaping head wound, I looked like I had walked in from a crime scene. After holding Clayton, attempting to butterfly his wound with common household items (think MacGyver) and carrying him to the E.R., I was covered in blood.


**Key in super hero music** Fels-Naptha to the rescue! I swear there is a reason this stuff has been around for over 100 years! Not only has it been a proven laundry soap bar (grate it in to your washer or create your own laundry soap, recipe found here), it is an amazing pre-treatment for stains. Literally, you can watch them disappear before your very eyes! I washed my favorite pink long sleeve t-shirt (an essential in every Mom’s wardrobe) and, of course…. My favorite JEANS and every stain came out. **Happy dance**

I can also sing praise for having a micro-fiber sectional sofa. The seat covers zip off so you can wash them. Yes, our WHITE sofa looked like it had escorted me to the aforementioned crime scene. But not anymore! It is also clean as a whistle.

Even though there are loads of new cleaners out there promising to have bubbles that scrub, active stain lifters and a fresh, long lasting scent…. It never hurts to ask your Mom what HER Mom used for her laundry. Again, there is a reason this product has been around for over 100 years. Did I mention that it is the same, original formula also?

Thank you Fels-Naptha for swooping in and saving my day, along with my favorite pink t-shirt and jeans!
