I'm really happy to have refashioned this very soft but hard to upcycle organic baby change pad. I can't really give this used baby change pad to someone else. I don't think another mom would want to use a used change pad for her baby because there might have been a big poop mess on it at one point (which didn't happen to this pad). And I just don't like the thought of adding more disposable sanitary pads to the landfill every month. So this solution works for me. These cloth pads are so soft and doesn't make that plastic-y sound if I move the wrong way!
I was able to make 10 pads from this one change pad. And here are the not-so-pretty refashioned project pictures:

I love it! Feminine products do tend to be pretty wasteful, don't they? This is a great idea. Way to reuse!
