Is it even possible to go chemical free?
In my first move toward a chemical free home I return to something I did way back when my children were babies. I used this recipe for wet-wipes (excluding the Germicide). Because I have become accustomed to Chlorox wipes... I decided to make my own ...
I absolutely love the convenience of wet-wipes for everything. For a busy lifestyle they sure are quick!
So, in making my own I:
purchased a round, deep tupperware (about 6-8 inches high approximately)
purchased a roll of paper towels (thick ones)
cut the paper towel roll in half (literally)
removed the cardboard center
stuck it in the round tupperware
saturated the towels with my own *cleaning solution.
Now, when I need a "wet wipe" I pull from the center of the roll and viola! Out comes a ready made wipe!
*cleaning solution made with SHAKLEE'S Basic H (concentrated biodegradeable all purpose cleaner) and Basic G (concentrated biodegradeable germicide). I used 1 tsp each.
Totally easy!!
Give it a try and let me know how it goes!

Am on my way to the grocery store to buy the dry ingredients for my own wipes. The grandlets are constantly creating situations that demand wipes;) The Shaklee ingredients will soon come. Thanks for taking the time to share your wisdom with us. Love you deeply.
