DIY (Personal) Bath Wipes

We're leaving on a road trip and I thought 

I'd share a little tip. Something I always make

 and take along for us to use whenever we 

are traveling in our van: 

personal bath wipes.

It's so easy to make your own personal bath

 wipes.These are great for road trips, 

camping, picnics, or anytime you aren't close 

to soap and water and need to freshen up. 

I always place a container in the bathroom

 at home too.

You'll need a 3qt container that's tall enough, 

about 6" to hold 1/2 cut roll of Bounty 

with a tight fitting lid

I had two old Rubbermaid #6 containers

 and a Tupperware snap-lid container. 

A large plastic coffee canister will work too.

Of course you'll need to decorate,

decoupage or paint it.

Cut the paper towel in half using a 

sharp (not serrated)  knife. 

Mix up the simple solution.

Pour the solution over the paper towel 

in the container.

 Once absorbed you can easily pull out the 

cardboard center. 

 Pull the first piece of paper towel from the center. 

 This will give you tons of wipes for pennies.

No more throwing your money down the toilet

...if you'll excuse the expression!
