Family Cloth containers

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 
Right now i'm using a Tidy Cats litter bucket b/c poopy diapers go into it, as well. But within the year, i won't be cloth diapering anymore, so i'd like a smaller, perhaps even attractive, container for our used FC.

What kind of container do you use for your used FC (if you're not CD'ing)?

And while we're at it, what kind of container do you use for the clean FC? (I have an over-flowing basket...could use something better)

We just use a small trash can with a liner...since we wash it most every day, odors aren't much of a problem.

I put my dirty ones in a mesh laundry bag (like for nighties) with a loop on a corner for hanging inside the bathroom counter door. Does that make sense?

We use a ceramic cookie jar-type container to hold the dirty wipes. And a homemade, cloth drawstring bag to hold clean wipes.

I fold them in half and put them clean side up and down in a small pile next to the toilet I only use FC for #1 though. If I have guests over, I'll put it in my mamacloth jar (those I soak until I wash them), and then the jar into its fabric container. Its not gorgeous, but its not obvious either.

As for clean FC, I just have a stack on the top of the toilet. We don't have the money for lots of furniture or new baskets or anything, so thats what we have and it works for now.

I keep the FC folded in a stack on the back of the toilet, used ones go into a little trash can beside the toilet. They get washed every other day so smell is no problem.

I keep the clean wipes in a stack inside the cabinet that is right next to the toilet. The used ones go in a wetbag that hangs on the bathroom door. Everytime I do laundry I throw the wetbag in with a load of similar color clothes. The wipes go in with the whites. I've had no odor problems. This was the biggest concern DH had about using Family Cloth. I used them for about a month before I told him about it just to see if he noticed any odor problems.
