List of Ingredients
To make any of these wipes, tear off paper towels and lay in a square plastic container. They can be folded or cut in half. Mix ingredients in a large measuring cup, and slowly pour over a stack of paper towels. They will "squish" down after absorbing the liquid. Seal tightly.
Caution: Some square seals are not airtight and may leak if tipped.

Recipe
When I make these, I "saw" (a serated bread knife works well) the paper towels in half so it looks like two rolls of toilet paper. I put the roll, cut side down in a container (I use a Tupperware Modular Mate square 2) and pour the cleaner mixture over. After a bit the cardboard tube inside softens and I pull it out. Then pull wipes one or more at a time from the center of the roll. (there were times when I was glad I hadn't preseparated the wipes into small squares!) I always made all my baby wipes this way. Only time I pulled off the paper towels and folded them was when I needed some for the diaper bag or for travelling. Wonderful time saver and money saver too!
