Throwback Thursday: How it All Started

I may receive a commission if you purchase something mentioned in this post. See more details here.

Just over two years ago, I started this blog.

It was on a whim. I had just started learning how to replace the commercial products in my home with natural, homemade ones. I have learned so much since then, and this blog has grown into something that people actually read. I still find my old posts incredibly important resources, and I frequently go back to them on my own. Yet they are old, don’t contain pictures, and generally are not internet-friendly.

Each week, I will be featuring one or more of these old posts. Updating their content a little. Discussing how what I do has changed since then, or how they are still working for me. Adding pictures. I’m excited to share these old posts with my new readers! I hope you like them, too.

Curious as to how it all started? I started with a simple post, detailing why I was starting the blog. I could literally pinpoint the moment I decided to make a huge life change, and I haven’t stopped since!

From there I moved on to my original Transition to Chemical free series, which will be the first focus of my Throwback Thursday posts. I talk about No ‘Poo, homemade products, and generally figuring out what more I can do. I am always changing and improving, and at the end of the series I knew I still had a long way to go. But to this day I am working on it. And that is what is important. No matter what the pace of your transition, just keep working at it, and you will get there.

Interested in a comparison? Here’s a picture of some of the products I used in September 2013 and their equivalents that I use now. Lot’s a familiar faces!Throwback Thursday | How it All StartedHow have your personal care products changed over the years?
