We've been using plenty of them lately. The kids just got over one cold when Sweet Pea's nose strarted running overtime again.
"Mom! Wipe nose!!"
So I thought I'd let you in on a little secret...the best thing about flannel or knit burp clothes...is that when the kids grow out of them, they haven't really grown out of them. They turn out to be the BEST nose wipers around. They're soft on those poor little noses, and thick enough that the snot doesn't soak through them. And when they get nasty, you just toss them in the next load of laundry.
...and trying to grab the camera from you because it's SO FUNNY!

But I've got an hour before Firecracker gets home from school and there's a project calling.
Lucky you that you can even GET her to blow her nose – my son is 7, and STILL won't blow his nose!
ReplyDeleteEeeewww - great pics. :)
ReplyDeleteToo funny, and a great idea too!
ReplyDeleteHaha. I've been thinking about writing basically this exact same post lately. But the nose wipes aren't for Olivia. They're for ME!
ReplyDeleteI have to admit that half the burp clothes you sent us for charlie we use as hankies or car napkins and the other half got serged into cloth diaper wipes. :) It the gift that keeps on giving!
ReplyDeleteWonderful idea! I will get right to work making my own!
ReplyDeleteThose are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI would love if you would share them at our Monday Playdate at Beneath the Rowan Tree :)

I am notorious for grabbing burp cloths and wiping a nose, especially when they are sitting in a basket right next to the rocker.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea and a fun reason to get out the sewing machine :)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! Colds have suddenly taken hold in my house so I might whip up some nose rags! Now I just need to teach out little girl to use them herself!
ReplyDeleteThese are very cute. I love the designs you put on the corners, and of course... your little camera ham is adorable too. Visiting from Fireflies and Jelly Beans link-up.
