Make your own fire starters! We have been purchasing ours as we heat with a woodstove and do not have a heater in our home. It was 36 degrees this morning......and to think we had our A/C running last week as we were in the 90's! Ugh. So now I'm back to thinking *winter* with my wood stove giving off some much needed warmth this morning after a chilly morning of goatie and chicken chores. Those fire starters we have been purchasing are very expensive and we have to drive a long way to get them.......but they work FABULOUS! So I thought I'd look online to see if I can make these at home.....I was delighted to find out not only how easy they are to make, but that I can use pine shavings and dryer lint too! Cool! Here are some websites if you'd like to make these as well!>
