How can I make my own reusable wet wipes

I use an old towelling dressing gown cut into small squares, and take a small water bottle out with me, so they are kept dry and don't go off. You can use cooled chamomile tea or rosemary water instead of water but plain old water works fine for us! A friend has a funky wipes dispenser that is watertight and she uses that, not sure where she got it though!

You can also sew towels and fleece together to use so you get a tough side and a soft side!

ooh forgot to say that when she had nappy rash I used boiled rosemary water and because it's a bit of faff to make, I made a big batch and froze it in ice cube trays and then defrosted some in boiling water each day! Worked quite well and was brilliant for her nappy rash! I also use this when she has a sticky eye.

I am going to experiment with an old cotton shirt
.. if that is not OK then tea towels.
