How to make Cloth Pads!



How to make cloth Sanitary Pads!
(Video Tutorial made by myself)


It wasn't until recently that I became aware of such things! When I first read about re-using sanitary pads I gave the generic first impression of 'eww that's gross!'. It wasn't until I started looking into more natural (and safer) alternatives, such as the Mooncup! (Which I absolutely adore! Best buy ever!) and began talking to some friends who carry their babies using wraps, use cloth nappies etc... That I really began to have second thoughts about re-usable pads too! After learning about all the awful  chemicals that are put into those disposable pads, and the really great benefits of using re-usable pads (or cups) it makes you want to learn even more! 


As a young costume maker/designer I've always been one for making my own clothes, accessories etc... So I got online, started doing my own research into how Cloth Pads are made and what fabrics should be used and I figured I'd make some myself!




Have fun!
