How to Make Your Own Wet Wipes

Add water at home to make your own! Making your own allows you to, and also saves energy from not shipping around water.
1.) Organic cotton or bamboo wipes: Take a handful of dry wipes out of the box (a few days worth), and place into glass or stainless steel Tupperware.
2.) Water os organic wet mix: Mix 1c distilled or boiling water, 1Tbsp Earth Mama Castile Soap, 1Tbsp Calendula Baby Oil. Slowly pour filtered water onto the dry wipes so they are saturated with water.

3.) Apply them: You can use these wipes immediately for a diaper change to help with any mess!
4.) Store them: Place your wipes in an air-tight container: For any extra wipes that you didn’t use, put the lid on the Tupperware and store for a couple of days at home.
5.) Store in a cool, dry place, away from the sun.
6.) It’s important to note that these homemade wipes only last a couple of days, depending on how you store them.
7.) If you’d like to take some of your homemade wet wipes with you on the go, we recommend putting some in a silicone bag and making sure the bag is closed well.
