Homemade Baby Wipes from Kleenex Hand Towels
Reader Heather sent in a great use for all those Kleenex Hand Towels that we were able to score for $0.29. Here is what Heather said:
My baby is cloth diapered & I normally use cloth wipes as well but, I have a husband who prefers to use disposables. I hate that wipes cost so much – even on sale it’s hard to get them for less than $0.01/each. Such a waste!! When you posted the Shoprite deal for Kleenex hand towels I got an idea which worked out wonderfully.
Here is how I made super cheap wipes:
Ingredients:
- Baby Wash
- Baby Oil
- Tea Tree Oil
- Hot Water
- Empty Huggies Wipes Container
- Kleenex Hand Towels
Directions:
- Cut the had towels in half – making 120/box
- Made a solution of 1 Tsp baby wash, 1 squirt of baby oil, drop of
tea tree oil & 1 cup hot water. - Added solution to empty huggies wipes container, one half of the
cut towels. - Repeat steps 2-3
The wipes are amazing! They pull out of the container just like
regular wipes and are just as hardy.
Two boxes of wipes for $0.29 is a good enough price to please the husband 🙂
Thanks Heather for this great frugal tip!
