Have you ever put wool felt balls in your dryer?
No? Well then today I’d like to introduce you to my friend Cyndi Prince.
Cyndi and I have a lot in common—we live in the same community in midcoast Maine, and we are both mothers and business owners aiming to provide healthy, natural, and chemical-free products for children and families.
Cyndi is the founder of a great company called LooHoo that produces wool felt dryer balls here in Maine. She formed the business shortly after the birth of her son, having learned about the harmful effects of the chemicals in dryer sheets and fabric softeners.
Wool dryer balls are a natural alternative that soften clothes safely and really speed up the drying time of large loads of laundry, including cloth diapers. Cyndi has produced her dryer balls in a beautiful variety of hues that brighten up the task of doing laundry and make it more fun!
The inspiration to create LooHoo grew out of Cyndi’s creative passions (she is also a photographer), and her desire to create a consistently high quality wool dryer ball from local resources, durable enough to last for hundreds of loads.
While I love to hang my clothes on the line, it’s hard to do during the long Maine winters. That’s when I rely on my dryer more. I started out using three LooHoo balls a couple of years ago, and now have six in my dryer. I can attest that they really do speed up drying time, which in turn cuts down on our electric bill and reduces our carbon footprint.
Being the fan that I am of LooHoo, I was delighted when Cyndi generously offered to give away a Deluxe Starter 3-Pack to three readers of Moon Child!
For today’s giveaway, LooHoo is pleased to offer the following gift to THREE winners:
A Deluxe Starter 3-Pack of LooHoo Wool Dryer Balls
The set comes in an attractive box, making it a perfect gift for a green mama. (LooHoo felt balls are also fun toys and great for juggling!)
Each prize (a $27.99 value) includes free shipping within the 48 contiguous United States. The giveaway is open to all readers, but a winner outside the continental U.S. will be responsible for the cost of shipping.

This looks like a great product. Not like the other products like it that I have seen.
Perfect! The colors are lovely. We currently do not use anything in our dryer (no dryer sheets, nothing) but have been looking for an alternative and this is it! I’ll definitely habe yo invest in some before our new LO artives!
A completely natural product that helps speed up drying time and is fun to use? Sounds awesome!
I love the idea of this product. We too try to line dry most of our clothes, but now that winter is coming we will be using our dryer more and this will definitely help :]
I’ve been looking for something like this! My twins break out in a rash when I use dryer sheets. Awesome product!!
Pinned this on Pinterest.

Love using a chemical free product! I love the colors too!
What a great idea! Looking forward to trying this product!
These are wonderful. Would love to win!
I haven’t used dryer sheets or fabric softener in years, but would love to try these! We cloth diaper, so this would help immensely! I’ve been searching for dryer balls that don’t resemble dog toys!
We just had a family conversation this morning about stinky chemical dryer sheets and how we don’t like them! We would live to try these wool dryer balls.
Awesome giveaway. Thanks for the opportunity. We need dryer balls!
I have been looking for these – saw them at a craft fair last year and wish I had picked them up then!
So beautiful–they should be on display.
Would love to try them!
Oh wow I would LOVE to win these. I really long to get away from the yucky perfume smell of dryer sheets
I love this idea! Thank you for providing us with such wonderful alternatives.
Love the colors on these dryer balls:) makes a great gift!
I would love to try these wool balls to cut down on dryer time and fluff our clothes! Thanks for the chance to win them 🙂
I love the idea for the dryer, but I’m really tempted to use them for juggling instead!
What a great product – would love to try them out! thanks, sarah
Always wanted to try these! I use the plastic ones now, but would love the wool upgrade.
I bet these would really work well to dry our cloth diapers. It tends to be a fairly small dryer load and they just don’t get tumbled enough.
Perfect for all those things that get tangled in the dryer.
I would love to try these out!
I would love to try these balls. I recently felted an 8 eight inch ball with a felting needle. The ball was the head of a millet baby I made for my son’s Waldorf school. The first millet baby I’ve ever made!
I hate dryer sheets…but we’ve hit winter. Hello static cling..These seem like an awesome solution!!
Oh, that would be lovely
I love wool dryer balls. Except with my boys and dogs they always seem to go missing.
What a wonderful idea. I do not use dryer sheets but have used the plastic hedgehog looking balls. These are beautiful and all natural and the idea never dawned on me. I would even use them outside the dryer as a beautiful center piece or as part of a nature table. They are lovely.
Wonderful idea. I would love to try these!
I love the idea of these and have wanted to try these for quite some time. It would be wonderful to win a set-fingers crossed!
I love loo-hoo dryer balls! They work great, but I need more for my collection. 🙂
I love these. I need these!
I would love to try these! I do worry about using dryer sheets.
I’ve been wanting to try some of these!
Wonderfully sustainable product, would love them!
I’ve been wanting dryer balls for a long time and these look fantastic. The colors are also very calming.
These seem wonderful. I would love to win.
Sounds awesome! I never knew the benefits of these guys. Very nice to learn.
I would love to try these!
What a great idea. I have never used dryer sheets, and have considered other alternatives, but never tried them. These sound perfect!
I love the colors and the creative, clever box. It’ll be tough to decide whether to keep them for myself or give them away!
I love my dryer balls!
I’ve always wanted to try these! Right now I have the plastic dryer balls but the woolen ones seem so much nicer.
What a fantastic idea! Great to know they minimize drying time and last awhile, all while looking gorgeous.
Would love to try them. Thanks for the great giveaway!
Looks like a fun laundry tool!
I have never even heard of this But I love the idea. Wish I had known about it when I was washing diapers!
Can’t wait to try it.
I have a few of these homemade, but would love to add to my collection! The kids love to play with them whenever they come out of the dryer and the clothes are so very happy with them too! Thanks!
