Give it away Friday - Green Bumkin review and giveaway

CLOSED

I'll admit it.  I'm one of "those" cloth diapering moms that, until a couple weeks ago, put the dirty diapers in *gasp* a plastic grocery sack to bring home.  That's right.  I was a wetbag-less mess!  And quite honestly, this was sometimes a deterrent from choosing cloth if we'd be away from home.

And then I was offered the chance to review a small wetbag and 2 wipes from Green Bumkin.  I'd recently started making the switch to cloth wipes, so I jumped at the chance!


I think it's a little silly to carry a huge diaper bag, along with my purse, for short trips, but I do think it's important to have a spare diaper (or two!) along for the ride.  I've started carrying my Green Bumkin wetbag as a mini-diaper bag, of sorts, for these shorter outings!


There are two clean OS pocket diapers and a travel pack of wipes inside the bag in this picture!

After I use one of the diapers, I stick the second diaper and the wipes pack in my purse and use the wetbag as...well...a wetbag!  It works great!  It's perfectly waterproof and machine washable.  The inner lining does come out of the bag during washing, but it's super simple to tuck it back in and go!  I LOVE that Green Bumkin wetbags are totally customizable!  I got to choose my fabric, pul, and zipper colors!  (I chose my fabric and then told Amy from Green Bumkin my top two pul/zipper choices and let her pick which looked better.)


And the wipes are fabulous!  I know when Amy makes these, she's making them for cleaning little bums, but I love them for wiping faces as well!  They're super soft flannel on one side and organic bamboo terry on the other.  They hold up great to washing and...wiping.  I love these!

You can buy wetbags in a variety of customizable sizes, as well as wipes and other items, from Green Bumkin's etsy shop!

OR

You can win a small wetbag set with two wipes right here!
(Contest will end and a winner will be drawn on March 29, 2011 at 11:59am EST.)
