Homemade Baby Wipes {tutorial}

Sorry for my brief absence... I hope that this is not a normal occurance, 

but I will always do my best to be a Mom first.

Having a baby is not cheap. Even when you buy second-hand, use coupons, and make things homemade... they use a lot of {everything!}

One of my favorite homemade recipes I originally got from my sister. (Thanks Day!)

Here is how I make my own wipes: 

Ingredients: Olive oil, baby wash, paper towel roll, and hot water

To make- take this:

(one thick paper towel)

Then, cut the paper towel in half

(I used a bread knife- but I have used a razor before- it does take some... effort)

Then mix together 2-2.5 Cups Boiling water

2 Tbsp.Olive Oil

2 Tbsp. Baby wash

Well... don't mix. Lightly stir (if anything). Much more than lightly stirring will cause a hu-normous amount of bubbles... which doesn't help anything.

Then put the cut end of the paper towel roll in to a container 

(the best container is one that the paper towels barely fit in.)

Then---pour the soap mixture over the rolls, cover with a lid, then let them sit overnight. 

In the morning, you will have this: 

Some pretty {awesome} baby wipes!

Considering when you cut the paper towel in half- you then have two sets of baby wipes- I usually make 2 batches at the same time. Then I don't have one random 1/2 roll of paper towel sitting around. 

Look forward to a few more tutorials this week! 

Is it really NOVEMBER already? Like the 11th month of the year? What!?!!
