I Just made a new batch of baby wipes yesterday, so I wanted to share the process with you all!
Supplies:
-Seventh Generation “unbleached” or “recycled” Paper Towels
-Large sealable container (that can fit half of a paper towel roll)
-2 1/2 cups hot filtered water
-2 Tbsp. Dr. Bronner’s Unscented Baby Castile soap
-2 Tbsp. Organic coconut oil
How To:
- Cut the paper towel roll in half with a sharp serrated knife.
- heat 2 1/2 cups filtered water in a bowl
- Add 2 Tbsp. organic coconut oil, stir, and melt completely.
- Add 2 Tbsp. Dr. Bronner’s unscented soap and stir.
- Place one half of the paper towel roll in the wipe container/tupperware.
- Pour the water/oil/soap mixture directly over the paper towel roll.
- Press down the saturated paper towel roll.
- Close the lid tightly, and flip upside down.
- After a couple minutes flip back over and open the container up.
- Make sure the entire roll is saturated, then gently pull out the cardboard tube.
- Lastly, transfer to the container you use for wipes. Pull up the middle so that it feeds through the container opening easily.
*The whole process takes less than 20 mintues
*Wipes will not last as long as store bought wipes. Mine usually last about 1-1 1/2 weeks.
Ok that was a longer post! It is worth going through this process, because you do not have to worry about what ingredients are in your wipes. These are safe and mostly natural ingredients. Like, follow, share, and comment! Thank you!!!
