Polishing the new wood floors
I heart Method. And I love their new OMOP wood floor care kit.
Originally, Method's eco-answer to the Swiffer was packaged in a clear, plastic box. Great green product on the inside, not so green plastic on the outside. Now, they've gone back to the eco drawing board and repackaged it in eco-friendly bamboo fiber. Here's a close shot of the embossed messaging:
The packaging is totally biodegradable and compostable, so I took it with me back to my cottage house and shredded it for the compost bin (I don't have one yet at the new house. Spring project!).
I love microfiber towels, so I was happy to see a removable and machine-washable microfiber pad for the OMOP. Just attach to the velcro strips, squirt seom of the OMOP cleaning fluid onto the floor, and wipe away. Shiny floors. Correction: Shiny brand new floors!
Oh, and a shot of something that puts a smile on my face: my new bamboo cutting board. It is designed to sit inside the Kohler designed sink. So I can chop vegetables right in the sink and push the peels and skins into a compost bucket. No mess and no fuss. And it just looks cool, too. I can't wait to cook in the new house!
Hi Danny !
Love your new floors they look great. Also love your new kitchen sink with the bamboo cutting board great set up for the kitchen

Good to see the update on the Method's packaging. I use this product and I hope more companies follow their lead.

You convinced me a while back to try the new method mop and I love it and love the microfiber cloth that can wash rather than toss. I am so glad to see them improve the packaging.
I also have a bamboo cutting board and have used it for a couple years now.
Both would make great shower or housewarming gifts for friends and family!

Hi Danny...I adore you and just found your blog...I am so glad that I did! I love method products, but have been having difficulties finding a cleaning solution for my laminate flooring. Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks!
