  1. I LOVE the idea of making your own baby wipes! I went through so many when my kids were babies. This would have saved me so much money and been better on the environment.

  2. What a good idea to make them yourself. I used to panic when we’d be about out of them, and I never thought to make my own!

  3. This is really useful to know as we’ve got a baby coming in a few months and the amount of wipes (and other things) that we’d go through is a little worrying. I’ll have to give this a go and see how it works for us x

  4. I love this idea. It’s gentle on baby’s skin and way better for the environment. Definitely worth trying for a more natural and sustainable option.
