| Update on washable pee pads out of crib pads Some of you may remember me getting the 6 washable crib pads off Ebay for $21.98 (included shipping) and starting to make washable pee pads out of them. Well, I'm finished now. I now have 37 washable pee pads, and only paid $21.98!!! They fit in the size of a kitty litter box. They came as "irregular". 2 had very small spots on each of them, one came dirty in one spot (should wash out) and another one had one small spot on the edge that was cut too short (I was able to work around). I'm so excited about this! I spent that much on 3 packages of throw away pads! I just cut them to fit the boxes, sewed the edges, then zig zagged them. Wala. And she uses them just as well as she used the throw aways! My budget isn't what it used to be. I figured at the price I'd seen washable pads, I'd never be able to afford any. But now I have 37 of them, and only paid $21.98 for all of them! |

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Great idea, and you're cutting down on enviromental waste. You could probably start a business with this idea if you like to sew. Nancy Last edited by Nancy1999; 12-20-2006 at 11:56 AM. |

Thanks so much for the update! I haven't bought mine yet, but was waiting to see how you liked them. So besides her using them the same, do they work well, wash well, etc? Are they really absorbent so the feet don't get wet? Please do tell... Thanks, Nancy | |

| They are pretty absorbent, but then again, after she pees a few times, I take them up, out back and rinse. I still have 1 in 3 different rooms. I haven't got a full load of them yet, so I don't know how they wash up. She also potties out back when Adonis goes outside too. He's outside trained. So she doesn't potty on them unless she's just inside at the moment she has to go. |
