Homemade Diaper Wipes!

Ingredients

1 roll paper towels
4c. hot water
3 TB coconut oil
1 TB natural soap
5 drops of lavender essential oil
*additional ingredients include aloe and witch-hazel, neither are necessary but have great qualities!

What you will need:

A glass or plastic container  {I use a gallon anchor jar, but know a few people who recycle plastic coffee canisters}

A bowl or pitcher for mixing ingredients


Place paper towel roll vertically in container, mix ingredients together until coconut oil is melted and soap and oils are well mixed.  Pour mixture slowly over the paper towels and allow it to fully absorb.  Gently pull out the cardboard roll and pull out the first wipe from the inside.  Cover and store!

Natural Bum Balm

Ingredients:
organic coconut oil
organic olive oil
lavender essential oil {therapeutic grade}

What you'll need:
A small, lidded container {such as a recycled baby food or small spice jar}

Warm enough coconut oil to almost fill the container, add about 5 drops of lavender oil, and 1/2 tsp of olive oil.  Shake like crazy to mix!  Keep covered.

My kids have all had eczema, and are prone to breakouts on their bottoms  :(  This stuff has worked great to heal them and keep them eczema free!
