Summer Safety for Everyone

The Candle and Soap Making site at About.com is one of hundreds of sites on the About.com network, and one of several in the Home and Garden channel. The Home and Garden Guides have joined together for a Summer Safety promotion to increase awareness about summer safety for a wide variety of topics. Today, I am featuring safety information from the fabulous Green Living and Antiques sites at About.com. We talk about natural mosquito repellents and natural soaps on here...so why not natural sunscreen? We talk about making soap and candles with kids...so why not collecting antiques? They're all just things we do to improve quality of our lives, teach our children well, and safeguard the planet.
