1. Use them as ice packs. While recovering from my c-section, the nurses in the hospital would occasionally give me ice packs for my sore stomach. To my surprise, these packs consisted of ice shoved into an opening in a newborn diaper. As the ice melted it was absorbed into the diaper and did not leak at all. Genius! I will use this in the future for boo boos (maybe even a headache or two).
2. Use them to water your container plants. I haven't tried this yet, but the internet is filled with videos about using diapers to water your plants. Take a look! I know that I will try this on our house plants when vacation time rolls around.
3. Use them to mop the floor. I tried this today and I must say that I was pleasantly surprised.
Place a diaper on the bottom of a Swiffer-type floor mop (any mop with velcro on the bottom will do the trick). I use this natural floor cleaner. Simply spray your cleaner of choice on the wood floor and go to town!
4. Use them for packing up fragile items. Diapers are soft enough for a baby's bottom, so why not use them to pack up delicate vases?
If you have found an alternative use for extra diapers, please share in the comments!
