Fall Fluff Giveaway Sponsor Spotlight! {Dinkledooz One Size Cloth Diaper Review!}

I am a huge pocket diaper fan! Almost my entire stash is pocket diapers so I was super excited to include GoGo Natural and Dinkledooz as a sponsor for the Fall Fluff Giveaway Hop! 

I was given the opportunity to review a Dinkledooz one-size pocket diaper from GoGo Natural for the Fall Fluff Giveaway! I received the diaper in their newest color "Chocolate". It's a beautiful deep brown with red snaps! 

The Dinkledooz one-size diaper fits approximately 8 to 35 pounds. The diaper is made with an outer layer of waterproof PUL and an inner layer of soft, cotton microfleece. It comes with two microfiber inserts, one large and one small. 

One of my favorite features of the Dinkledooz diaper is the super soft microfleece inner. It feels amazing and even after several washes it is still soft! Isaac is almost 20lbs and it fits him really good and I think it will fit him until we potty train. It fits him well with the rise snapped down one layer but I like a higher rise on him so I just leave it completely unsnapped, and we still get a great fit in the waist and around the legs. There is also a hip snap which is great to keep the diaper in place around the legs and hips.  I'm not sure what the fit would be like on a newborn, but I think it would fit well enough not to leak. 

Here's the Dinkledooz on the smallest setting...

And here is the Dinkledooz on the largest setting...

So as you can see there is a lot of room for baby to grow. Isaac will definitely be able to wear this diaper for a while!

Another thing I love about the Dinkledooz diaper is the WIDE pocket! It's great for stuffing the insert it comes with in it as well as any additional inserts you want to add to it to make it more absorbent for naps or bed! With just the one microfiber insert that comes with the diaper, we haven't had any leaks and that's even during a nap! 

This diaper is perfect for pocket lovers like me! It fits great, it's super soft, doesn't leak, and is at a great price of $14.95 each! 

Win It!

One lucky reader will win a Dinkledooz one-size pocket diaper in the Fall Fluff Giveaway prize package!

I am super excited to tell you about our next sponsor for the Accessorize Your Stash In August event- True Baby Designs! 

Here's a bit about how True Baby Designs came to be from the creator, Tiffany! 

"My shop was born out of my intensely frugal nature and a love for creating reusable cloth products. I began my cloth creations by offering cloth pockect diapers and have slowly expanded into cloth wipes and cloth pads. 

I love the practical side of cloth products: they save you money, save your skin, and save the environment from waste. But I also believe that cloth products don't have to be stuffy or frumpy--they can be cute and classy too!"

True Baby Designs is offering a medium sized wetbag and a cloth diaper to give away during the event! The wetbag can hold 2-3 cloth diapers and is made with waterproof PUL to keep wetness and stink enclosed! Her cloth diapers are fitteds and fitted pockets made with 4 layers of thick fleece which makes the diaper super absorbent!

Accessorize Your Stash In August Sponsor Spotlight! {Devon's Creative Designs Wool Dry Balls!}

I am so excited for the Accessorize Your Stash in August event to start this Friday, August 24th! Our cloth diaper accessories really don't get enough credit! Most of our accessories are what make it possible to cloth diaper and make cloth diapering easy and fun! 

The first sponsor I am going to tell you about is Devon's Creative Designs! I was given the opportunity to review a set of natural dryer balls from Devon's Creative Designs!  Devon's Creative Designs wool dryer balls are a great alternative to fabric softener and dryer sheets. They are made from 100% wool and cut down on static and drying time by bouncing around in your dryer which allows more air to flow, making your clothes dry faster! 

I have been wanting to dry some wool dryer balls for a while now! I heard they were great for cloth diapers and cut down on drying time for all laundry! I was super excited to give these a try and see if it was true! I received a set of four dryer balls to try, which is the minimum suggested to use. I gave them a try right away, because let's face it, there is always laundry to be done! First thing I noticed is they aren't that loud bouncing around in the dryer! I thought they would be really loud and annoying, but they aren't! I definitely noticed that my clothes were dry in less time than usual, especially my bigger loads like towels and washcloths! My laundry was also just as soft as if I had used fabric softener! 

Then it was time to try them on my cloth diapers! I never use dryer sheets or fabric softener  on my cloth diapers anyway so the true test was whether they dried faster! I have a few AIOs and those take forever to dry! I usually have to dry my covers and inserts and then take those out and dry my AIOs for another 20 minutes to get them completely dry! So I tested the dryer balls out with all my cloth diapers including my AIOs. I was so pleasantly surprised! The AIOs were dry in the same amount of time as all my inserts! So it cut down my drying time by almost a half hour! So now I am saving even more money with cloth diapering because my energy bill is going to go down a bit too!

Devon's Creative Designs wool dryer balls are a great way to save energy, and have soft, static-free clothes without the buildup of softener! They are super great for any laundry, including cloth diaper laundry! They are an awesome accessory to my cloth diapers!
