<\/a>
<\/a>I have been hearing about these natural baby wipes for awhile now from a few different people, so it was finally time for me to try them too! I made them a few weeks ago now, and so far I really like using them with my kids. Here is how I made them:<\/p>\n

First, I took a Bounty big roll of paper towel and cut it in half. I was told that other paper towels won’t work for this. The Bounty are nice because they are the half sheet size:
\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>The edges got frayed a bit but that didn’t seem to matter in the end.<\/p>\n

Next, I poured 2 cups of water into a bowl. I used filtered water<\/span><\/a>.
I have heard to use hot water so they don’t mold. I didn’t because I didn’t know this at the time and haven’t had any issue with that.<\/p>\n

I added 1 tsp. of Shakleebaby Gentle Wash<\/span><\/a> and 1\/4 tsp. of Shakleebaby Massage Oil<\/span><\/a>. I have also heard of people using natural baby oil or almond oil in place of the massage oil.<\/p>\n

EDIT: In place of the Shakleebaby Gentle Wash you could also use the liquid Dish Wash Concentrate <\/a>which smells really nice and fresh OR the Basic H2 organic concentrate<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/i>
Both are complete safe on baby skin. (and yours!)
(sorry for this picture being sideways!)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I looked all around for a container that would work for my wipes. I found these but any similar type and size container should work.

<\/span><\/span>\"\"<\/a>
I washed the container, put the paper towel in and poured the water mixture over the top.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Then I put the cover on and turned it over for about 15 minutes to let the paper towel really absorb the water mixture.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Next I took the cardboard roll out from the center.
\"\"<\/a>And then they were ready to use!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I really like how they smell and LOVE knowing that I am not using chemicals on my kids bottoms. I wasn’t sure if the paper towel would be too rough on their delicate skin, but it isn’t at all.<\/p>\n

Here are the two Shaklee products that I used:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>We use the Gentle Wash<\/span><\/a> every day during bath time and really love it. Here are a few facts about it:<\/p>\n

99% natural
76% certified organic ingredients
pediatrician tested
PH balanced
Hypoallergenic
No parabens or SLS
No artificial color or fragrance
No 1, 4-dioxane or formaldehyde<\/p>\n

And here are a few facts about the massage oil<\/span><\/a>:<\/p>\n

99% natural
99% certified organic ingredients
pediatrician tested
Hypoallergenic
No parabens or SLS
No artificial color or fragrance
No 1, 4-dioxane or formaldehyde<\/p>\n

I always feel good using Shaklee products, especially with my kids. The science and quality behind each of their many products is outstanding and something I trust. I grew up with Shaklee as my mom has been using their products for 37 years and I am so excited that I can now make these baby wipes to use with my kids!<\/p>\n

I hope this information was useful to you. Thanks for reading and don’t forget about my Organize Now<\/span><\/a> party that starts on Jan. 5th. There is still time to check out the book and get yourself organized for the new year! I can’t wait!<\/p>\n

Have a healthy rest of 2011! Looking forward to what’s in store for 2012! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
