Pin 16

Pin 16 was kind of two pins in one. So here ya go:)

I have home made wipes and wipe solution:)

Making these wipes were super simple. I seen this pin a while ago on Pinterest and thought since I loved clothing so much I might as well go all in:) I made them yesterday and I've only been using them for today but so far I really like them. I love the fact that I can just throw them in the wet pail and I don't have the extra step of  throwing a sposie wipe away. Although I do keep them around for the really messing dipes. To make them I just took some old flannel blankets from when the kids were itty bitty that we didn't use anymore and used a zig zag stitch on my lovely sewing machine. I double layered them for thickness and durability. The only thing I would do different is make them bigger. I may end up making another batch to have bigger ones:) I ended up making somewhere between 40 and 50 but I only use   about 15-20. I had a reusable wipe container handy and I looked up how to do the accordion fold that way they will come out one after the other. Here is a step-by-step guide on the accordion fold:)

 Step 1: Lay one wipe out flat and lay another wipe on one half of the first wipe. As shown:)

Step 2: Take the half of the bottom wipe that isn't covered by the top wipe and fold it over the top wipe. You should still have half of the second wipe uncovered. 

 Step 3: Take another wipe and lay half of it on top of the half folded side of your pile.

 Step 4: Again fold the half of the bottom wipe over to the top of the pile.   

 TA DA!!! Okay so I know that was really confusing. Especially with my matching wipes. I'm thinking about making a video and maybe that will make it less confusing. 

 For a bonus picture here is our dipe station:) We have this vanity sink in our upstairs bathroom which is right next to the living room. Easy access for anytime of the day and luckily Little Lady doesn't need changed in the middle of the night. So this is our set up. The fabric with LOVE on it is actually a minky wetbag and that's what I lay her on. We also have a dipe drawer underneath which is where we store the extras in. There is a closet across from the counter and in there I have our wet pail:) 

So that's pretty much it. I will have another post about the wipe solution in the next couple days but now it's time to get dinner started and jazz. So till then
