How Does The Best Bottom System Work: Simplify, simplify, simplify! Many may start researching cloth diapers, get overwhelmed and quit. Best Bottoms are YOUR solution! So easy to use yet comes with lots of options so you can get a customized system for your baby.
1. Adjust front snaps to achieve the size needed.
2. Snap insert into diaper.
3. Put diaper on baby and go!
4. When baby needs a diaper change snap out soiled insert and snap clean one in.
5. Put diaper on baby and go AGAIN. The Best Bottom shell is wipe-able and can be used multiple times before washing but you may want to air dry between uses but it is not necessary.
We recommend getting as many shells as your baby poos in a 2-3 day time period (for newborns count how many explosions they have!!). We have found that poo does stay on the insert most of the time but in some cases it may not (but it will stay in the diaper cover avoiding an embarassing mess!) Three different size inserts in several different materials available. We don't believe in a one size insert. Newborns and toddlers are not the same size so in order for a one size insert to absorb enough for a toddler it will be HUGE on a newborn. You may not need all three sizes of inserts and can skip the middle size - it is all up to you! We recommend approximately 24 inserts per size.
So to make it SIMPLE you will need approx 8-10 shells and 18-24 inserts per size. How easy is that?!
Quality:
The highest quality of materials available have been selected with as much of the raw materials made in the USA as we could find. The entire Shell is made with USA-made materials! ALL of our products are proudly handcrafted in the USA at local factories helping to support the local economy and reduce our environmental impact. We use durable snaps and hook & loop, double layer of waterproof PUL creating a perfect no-leak sturdy shell with a wipe-able inside lasting for many washes.

We have started using a Brita pitcher instead of buying bottled water in order to save money and be more "green"

I would like to do better on using less electricity and water.

Besides cloth diapering, we use unpaper towels, reusable shopping bags, reusable water bottles, and cloth "swiffer" dusters and wipes instead of disposable.

I need to be better about bringing my own bags when I go shopping. They sit in the car and I have a hard time remembering to bring them in to various stores.
One thing we have done is join a CSA (Consumer Supported Agriculture). It is all locally grown organic food. We are loving it!

Other ways we are green beside cd'ing is by using eco friendly, biodegradable cleansers. We recycle everything we can. We are growing our own veggies and planted many new trees and fruit trees this year.
I would like to be more green by using less plastic all around!
I would like to start recycling more. I am very good about recycling my soda bottles but nothings else. I hope to find a local recycling place soon and begin recycling. I think it's important to teach my son at a young age to be green and do all he can to help protect the environment.
I am very frugal when it comes to electricity. We do not have lights on during the day and I do not keep electronics plugged in when they are not in use. I use reusable grocery bags most of the time when getting groceries. If I do not use a reusable grocery bag, then I recycle the plastic bag by using it for a garbage sack.
I use reusable grocery bags and just learned a tip that you should wash them after use, especially after carrying any kind of meat product because they can become germ infested.
I make my own baby food from our CSA produce or our own garden and cook a lot from scratch. We also compost like mad!
Commented on FB page as well
To be more green we wash in cold water (most of the time), recycle, buy local and organic and use earth friendly cleaning products!
I am now a fan (like) on facebook!
My family is becoming more and more "green" every day. We do not use any chemicals in my home anymore. We use the light rail instead of our car as much as possible.
I want to be more green or frugal as far as my kids clothes. I need to start buying more used stuff for them. I could save tons of money and it is better for the environment because we would be recycling. With ebay and Craigslist it is not hard to buy used clothes for kids- I just need to do it.

I love love love these diapers....I can't wait to start cloth diapering it will save me a bundle and also save the environment!!
To be more green and/or frugal I would like to re-use more things, completely eliminate disposable diapers (for overnights, going out, etc).
# Tell us one thing you do (besides cloth diapering) to be more green or frugal. The most frugal thing my family and I do is to buy nearly all of our clothing second-hand. This falls under being both green and frugal.
One thing I do to be green is always use cloth bags when shopping.

I would love to line dry my clothes. In our HOA, I'm not sure I could get away with it. But some of my favorite memories are of my mom's circular clothes line behind our house.
Besides cloth diapering, I try to be more frugal by making most of my household cleaners and using rags instead of paper towels.

I need to cloth diaper more often, and stop being lazy about it.
I carpool alot with friends and family to be more green, as well as use reusable shopping bags:)
I already compost but want to improve upon that by vermicomposting. I'm going to try my hand at making some of my own beauty products to be more green and frugal.

my frugal methods are to stack coupons like at target you can use a target coupon and a manufacture coupon at the same time.. Example today I am going to get new water filters for my pur filter I have a $2 off manufacture coupon and a $4 off Target coupon so $6 off my refills.. :D

One thing we do to be more green is garden and can/freeze our produce! tracyhgb at hotmail dot com
One area I'd like to improve on my "greeness" is buying more local produce.
We recycle and compost to be more green!
I breastfeed to be more green (no bottles!!) and save money :)
I'd like to improve on using cloth for the whole house. We use some cloth napkins, but it'd be nice to eliminate all paper napkins, towels, etc
tracyhgb at hotmail dot com
I'd like to be able to recycle more to be more green :)
My goodness, Nicki's has a lot of fans. You guys are the best. To be more green, I use only cloth napkins and rags and have banished paper towels from our home. Also always used my own grocery bags, and use vinegar water and soap as my main household cleaners. I have more ideas on being green.
