Never made my own, but would if/when I get grandchildren. But is there a homemade baby wipe solution as I don’t want stuff already made as it has too much stuff in it? Great though, great smile from Annie. 🙂
Not sure….you could use whatever soap you wanted. Castile would be great.
I LOVE this idea. Going to try it for my grandbabies.
Hmmmm…bet I could do this with my homemade household cleaner and have wipes for counters and bathroom touch ups and doorknob cleaning and…well, everything! Thanks for the idea!
P.S. We did the math and ours only cost about .50 per batch!
Thanks for the math, April! 🙂
I made these last night with my friend who will be a first time Mom in 6 weeks. LOVE THEM! I might even do this at home for me in the bathroom…I can’t wait to use them until I have kids! <3
Great! Share the wipey love. 🙂
I just thought I would share a tad of info on the baby wipes…I have made them for years…and I have found that just a freezer gallon sized ziplok works great too! Esp to keep in the car. I also dont pull out cardboard till after solution. I pour solution on, wait 5 mins and then the tube comes out super easy..I also take out the center wipe, cause it stinks like the wet cardboard. AND, for a tad bit of yummy smell, I will add 2-3 drops of lavendar or some other yummy scent of essential oil to the solution before pouring over the wipes. I also like to use Bounty select a size, cause I will use them just for cleaning a face, and the small square is perfect..plus, sometimes a big mess requires more than one wipe, but small messes can just use one tiny square.
Anyway, just thought I would share that tad of info!
I really need some new snazzy flip flops!
