The great folks at WysiWipe just sent me some samples of their biodegradable, reusable wipes.
Theses little pellets (about the size of a Tum’s) expand into full sized wipes when you add water to them. As I read more about these wipes I learned they were all natural and have no chemicals or scents. There is more; they are reusable and compostable!
So what can you use WysiWipes for? ANYTHING! I’m using them around the house wherever I would normally use paper towels. I can’t break my paper towel habit but with these WysiWipes it might just help me reduce how much I use paper towels. The first place I’ve used them is in the kitchen sink in place of those nasty sponges and disposable clothes. I should be using wash clothes but they get so stinky and nasty; I would always be washing them. So WysiWipes are a good alternative for me! When I’m done with them I can add them to my compost pile and not feel guilty!
Other uses of WysiWipes? How about camping or traveling. Or on a boat? Want something more environmentally friendly to wash your car with? Want to replace those disposable baby wipes? Have a messy toddler? Throw one in your gym bag. Perfect for day care centers and schools. The possibilities are endless!

I love the idea that they are not bad for the environment and they don’t require much space to store.. meaning.. I can stash them around my house and always have them handy.
Since I am a product whore– I am going to give them a try– for sure!
