Here are the most beautiful wool dryer balls we’ve ever seen. More beautiful still is what you don’t see: From cleaning and carding the fibres and wet felting from fluffy fibres, those responsible for every process from sheep to shelf, and for handcrafting these fine quality laundry room favourites are Nepalese artisans working in a fair trade project with Canada that is designed to help communities thrive.

Using three or more of these is a great way to save energy, reduce static and, along with your favorite essential oil synergies or natural fragrance options, replace the use of chemical sheets in the dryer.

A selection of these constitutes a favourite gift for some at this time of year.
