Baby Wipes

Ok so baby stuff can be super expensive! Plus there are always products that are popping up as bad for baby! Currently heard about Johnson and Johnson big NO-NO....google it! you mommas should know about it:/ Anyway, one thing I feel like we buy weekly is baby wipes! So here is a recipe for homemade baby wipes :)

You will need:
1 Tbls Baby Oil or Olive Oil
2 Tbls Baby Wash ( I have a recipe for this too, so you know exactly what you are putting on your baby's sensitive skin)
2 Cups Water that has been boiled and cooled to room temperature
1 Roll of Viva paper towels
a sharp serrated knife to cut paper towel roll in half
an airtight container to store the wipes(i bought a lock tight Tupperware container at walmart)

Directions:
*Boil the water and let cool while preparing everything else!
*Cut the roll of paper towels in half and store one half for the next batch, after you cut it in half-remove the inner cardboard core(this can be tricky but after you master it, it will take no time!!)
*Mix liquid ingredients in your container.
*Place the paper towel half in the container with the cut side facing downward.
*Secure lid, and allow to sit until all liquid has been soaked up in the roll of paper towels and are fully saturated( you can add a little more water and baby oil if needed)
*Turn the container upside down for about 10 mins.
*Open container and "start" the roll by pulling a towel from the middle of the roll.
*Wipes are ready to use:)

Super easy!!
Now for the mamas that like to use feminine wipes you can use the same recipe, only instead of Baby wash you could use your favorite Feminine wash!

Hope you guys enjoy this recipe! so easy and cheap!
( i had pictures of the whole process but guess who hit the wrong button on her camera and deleted everything? this kid!)

Thanks for reading! <3 Maranda
