Week Five - A Photo Tutorial

Well Lisa, I know you don't have a use for baby wipes, but this is how we make our own. Also you should know this recipe is highly customizable, so feel free to improvise where you deem necessary:

1 3/4 C water
2 TBS coconut oil
1 TBS baby soap

Heat water in Pyrex measuring cup in microwave, about 2 minutes does it for us. While that's in the microwave you have to do the hardest part, which really isn't that bad. You need to cut the paper towels in half. I recommend a sharp, non-serrated  knife, though I've heard people using electric knifes with success a regular one works for us.
Once this is cut just put half the roll in the container of your choice and save the other half for next time. We really love the container we found, it was part of a set of 4 that we found at Wal-Mart. It fits a half roll perfectly, like this is what it was intended for.
When the water is hot just add the oil and soap and when is all melted give it a good mixing.

Then pour your solution over the paper towels in the container, put the lid on and wait.

After about 10 minutes the cardboard roll is wet enough to just pull out.

Easy Peasy!

I should also mention I love this solution for cleaning and conditioning our dining room table and chairs as well as our leather couch. The coconut oil is so conditioning and so mild it really is all purpose.

I've thought about other possible solutions, like bleach wipes, or a vinegar solution for just cleaning.
Anyway, maybe you'll find something useful from this post, and maybe you won't ;-)

Cheers!
