Cloth diapers are nothing new. Neither are cloth table napkins and handkerchiefs. But how do you feel about reusable cloth toilet wipes?

Wallypop.net, of Des Moines, IA, has them. And lots of other reusable products that support a ‘natural lifestyle’.

Reuable toilet wipes have myriad advantages over the conventional paper variety, as the Wallypop Web site explains…

For one, it’s a lot more comfortable and soft on your most delicate body parts. It’s also more economical, uses less paper, and saves you those late-night trips to the store. And cloth wipes can be used wet without any of the sopping disintegration that regular toilet paper is prone to.

A ‘discussion of the practical aspects’ of using cloth toilet wipes is also thoughtfully provided. A ‘wet bag’ (like a diaper bag), to store soiled wipes, is available at additional cost.

Wallypop Family Wipes start at (US)$11 per dozen for the basic, cotton model. Check lout the Wallypop site for a vast selection of personal and household products you might not previously have thought of as ‘reusable’.
