How To Get Rid Of Those Smells

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Skout’s Honor. All opinions are 100% mine.

I grew up with two older brothers and now have two boys of my own and if there is one thing I can tell you is that boys stink. Ok ok, they have a lot of great qualities too, like they are super fun, adventurous, they play hard, love to cuddle and like to be outside getting muddy and then drag in all those smells! So basically they have a lot in common with our dog :)

For those of you with boys and pets, I’m sure you all know when I’m talking about. Good thing I have a little girl who smells like roses to help balance things out! But she’s at school all day, so it’s just the boys and me most of the time. Today, let’s chat about How To Get Rid Of Those Smells.

How To Get Rid Of Those Smells We laugh. We laugh a lot. And I love how the simplest things are the most fun. Like letting my three year old use the spray deodorizer after changing a poopy diaper in the nursery. He seriously begs me to let him use it and then sprays each room down. It’s so funny. I don’t mind because our house could always use a fresh scent! We’ve been using Skout’s Honor, an environmentally odor eliminator. It smells SO good!

After a hard game of chase, wrestling and building forts, it’s time for a little rest! And what better way to watch show than using your big sweet dog as a pillow. The whole “a man and his dog” saying is really true. Our Golden Retriever, Kona, is the sweetest thing and loves these boys. She is so patient and gentle…

….and even puts up with them as they lay on her and check out her teeth. :)

If you are looking for a chemical free room spray, I really recommend this. Skout’s Honor products are natural, non-toxic, plant-derived, earth-friendly, biodegradable, cruelty-free and safe to use around your pets, family and home. So great for a kid’s room or when using in an area where a baby is crawling around.

And at the end of the day, you can find me working on all those stains! Skout’s Honor makes a great Stain & Odor Remover, that’s primarily used for pet stains, but also works to get rid of tough stains on kid’s clothes, wine or coffee stains, etc. I tried it on a pile of clothes that had previously been watched but I couldn’t get the stains out and it worked great!

On another note, our dog actually got sick on our carpet this week and I used the Stain & Odor Remover on a large yellow spot on the carpet and it came right out! Here is where to buy their products near you!

I kept all the original flooring, cabinets, backsplash and fixtures and did only cosmetic updates to update this space. I wanted to add more contrast, character, warmth and texture. By smoothing out the texture of the walls it instantly gave it an updated look, the new paint color added contrast, the wood ceiling added warmth and texture and all the antiques and vintage pieces gave it the charm. 🖤

This was a true example of working with what we have, turning something with great bones into something that is unique, custom and full of character. (Swipe for the before) It now feels like my own little escape to the French countryside every time I do laundry, and I’m not mad about it.

My @worxtools Switch Driver and Impact Driver were the real MVP’s of this project! Saving me time and energy.
