How to Make Homemade Baby Wipes

You’ll need:

1 Roll of brand name paper towel (a little trust…generic just won’t hold up!)

21/2 Cups Water

baby wipes2 Tablespoons baby bath or shampoo

1 Tbs baby oil

1 Cylindrical Tupperware container (or whatever you can find to work for you)

1 Electric Carving Knife (I suppose you could use a saw, but this is easier)

Instructions:

Cut the roll of paper towels (Bounty works) in half at the middle using the electric knife.  Mix all the liquid ingredients together.  Put towels in the cylindrical container and pour the liquid over the top.  Let the mixture soak through for five to ten minutes and pull out the cardboard roll.  Wipes will spiral out through the middle!

Wipes Container Alternative.

Instead of soaking the paper towels in the baby wipe solution, keep the liquid in a spray bottle (find at any dollar store) and spray the paper towel or a baby washcloth when ready to use.  It doesn’t seem as elegant to me, and the spraying action may, in fact, add to the mess, but if it works, it works!
