You
will love this recipe for diaper wipes. They're fresh, smell wonderful, and
additive free.
Making your own diaper
wipes is a relatively inexpensive thing to do. This recipe will make the
equivalent of four refills of over-the-counter packs of
diaper wipes.
TECHNIQUE 3 quart round re-sealable
container or quart-size zip plastic bag.
1 jumbo roll of paper towels
2 3/4 cups of water (heated)
1 tablespoon of baby oil
2 tablespoons of baby bath
INSTRUCTIONS
Begin by cutting the
roll of paper towels in half using a utility knife.
Remove the cardboard tube from the center. The
easiest way to get the center out of the towels is
by running your finger down between the towels and
the cardboard roll. Push the cardboard roll in
towards the middle to separate it from the towels.
When it becomes loose, pull the roll out and throw
away.
Mix the water, baby
bath and baby oil in a pan. Sir over medium heat
until warm—do not boil. Let cool.
After the mixture has
cooled, place half of the paper towels in the
container or zip plastic bag, close the lid and turn
the container upside down. Wait for the entire roll
to become saturated.
They are ready to use!
Pulling them from the
center of the roll makes a easy to tear off.
