{Review & Giveaway} Get Comfy Buns Cloth Wipes

We were recently sent a "Test Drive" set of cloth wipes which included (1) 8x8 & (2) 6x4.5 sized cloth wipes. 

Here is a bit of info about the wipes from Jessica {Owner/designer}
Each double-sided wipe is made from pre-washed and pre-shrunk 100% cotton flannel ( or a mix of 100% cotton with 100% cotton flannel on the back ). I lovingly cut them on my kitchen counter and they are stitched together on our dining room table. Who says you need a sewing room ?? As much as I would love a "space all my own", we don't have it, so we improvise. After they are stitched, I tie off all threads and finally run the lint roller over them to remove any fluffies that don't belong, then package them and send them to their new homes.
Caring for your wipes is quite simple. Being that they are made out of 100% Cotton and/or 100% Cotton Flannel, they do best when washed cool and dried on low. The more gently you wash them, the longer they will last and stay looking pretty. Having said that, I usually wash mine in hot water along with my cloth diapers,and dry on low, and they are still sturdy and soft as ever.
I keep the wipes in an empty disposable wipes container and spray them as needed with home made wipe solution. I prefer the larger wipe that was included in the pack, the smaller ones just don't get it all, then I just spray them with the diaper sprayer and toss in the pail, they get washed with the diapers, and hung to dry.

Jessica suggests the following for care and cleaning;
To maintain their absorbancy, avoid fabric softeners, which can cause build-up.
To maintain their gorgeous colours, avoid chlorine bleaches.
Some people choose to rinse the wipes out with their diaper sprayer when they're spraying their diapers, some just leave them inside the diaper and toss them in the wash all together, both work well. 


Jessica has offered one lucky winner a "test drive" set of their own in boy,girl, or neutral prints.
