Requests granted! Some of you wanted those links here. I understand!
Here is the link to my book (this is an affiliate link so I get a % when you purchase)
Here is the link to the popcorn flavor recipes~
Here is the link to the make up remover/ face wash recipe~
I use 1/2 a cup of PLAIN kernels in the popcorn bag :) . I microwave it for 2:30 seconds in my 1100 watt microwave.
The face wash template is 4'' round. You can find an easy printable template on my blog at the very bottom of the post. Here is the link to that blog post~
To create the Reusable Microwave Popcorn Bag, you will need 2 pieces of cotton fabric that are 12'' x 20''.
TO sew 15 washable face wipes, you will need a piece of terry cloth fabric or chenille (i used a bar towel from the dollar store! Link to that towel in the bog post above!) that measures 18'' x 15''. You will also need a piece of cotton fabric of the same size. If you are buying fabric (and not a towel!) you could make 15 wipes with less waste using fabrics that are 12'' x 20''.
Here are some links to the products I use that you can purchase on amazon...
