Wetbags are one of the most versatile diaper accessories and can be used far beyond diapering years. I've compiled a list of uses for the entire family, every age and lifestyle. If you don't have an assortment of wetbags you are missing out! Thankfully PanBam has wetbags in lots of sizes, patterns, and brands to choose from. Use code NIKKI at checkout for a discount!
Dirty diapers on the go
This is the most common use. Just toss your dirties in your wetbag and they will keep your diaper bag smelling fresh until you get home.
Change of clothes
Especially in the car, you can even leave a bag in your trunk so you've got some spare clothes wherever you go.
Wet pool clothes/towels
A dry/wet bag is great for this. The outside pocket keeps your dry dirties away from your wet dirties in the big zipper.
Trash can liner
Empty your trash wetbag right into a dumpster then wash it to avoid plastic garbage bags.
Pail liner
Use them in your diaper pail and then toss it in the wash with your diapers.
Car garbage
The medium and small sizes work great hanging on the back of a passenger seat or in a small trash can.
Kitchen rag bag
Hang a wetbag from your stove and use it to collect unpaper towels and kitchen rags.
Hung on a crib
There are probably 100 different uses for hanging a wetbag from a crib, but mostly I think it looks so pretty!
Hung from a stroller
An easy way to use wetbags on the go... Can be for dirty clothes, diapers, or even trash.

Cloth pads on the go
I am currently switching over to cloth pads and liners, and having a small wetbag to fit in my purse is an easy way to manage them.
A pail liner in the bathroom for cloth pads
Hang a wetbag next to your toilet or in a small trash for reusable cloth pads.

Craft supplies
My kid loves playing with pom poms. A wetbag is the perfect way to store them along with all the other crafts.

Market or grocery sack
If you run out of produce bags or reusable grocery bags.
Laundry hamper bag
We travel quite often, and a wetbag is much easier to bring along than a laundry basket.

Gardening tools
Take your seeds, shovel, gloves, and shears out to the garden all in one trip.
Summer essentials bag
Have your sunblock, bug spray, body wipes, hand sanitizer, and other summer essentials all together. I keep this one in my stroller so it's ready wherever we go.
Reusable straws
Ditch your plastic straws and keep reusable ones in a small wetbag in your glove compartment.
Sorting play
My one year old is in the sorting phase. I cannot find enough jars, bowls, and bags for him to put things in.

I'm a person who needs sets to stay together. This would be perfect for grapat pieces or sets or Lego sets.

Stock up on all the essentials without the bulky plastic carry case. Make sure it's labeled well and red if possible so that it's easily recognizable if strangers respond to an emergency.
