DIY Baby Wipes

There could be advantages to creating your own baby wipes at home ... you'd avoid using harsh, over-drying chemicals on your baby's soft skin; it would save you a lot of money each month; maybe you'd use less if you have to "make them" yourself. Here's how you do it: Cut a roll of paper towels in half (I'd imagine you'd use a plush, quality brand!) and toss the cardboard insert.

Mix together, but don't shake, 2 cups of water, 2 tablespoons baby oil, and 2 tablespoons baby wash in an airtight container or gallon zipper bag. Pour the mixture over the paper towels and let sit for an hour so the liquid absorbs.
