Would this work for diapers?

Rhianna1981 · April 2012

I came across this tutorial- essentially it is how to make a hanging hamper out of a pillowcase. Since the baby's room is tiny, I was thinking of making two- one for clothes, and one for diapers. What that would mean, though, that wet and dirty diapers would be in a non-PUL bag (unless I can find a PUL pillowcase), and that there would be no "lid."

Common sense tells me that this WON'T work, and that the room will get pretty stinky, pretty quickly- but being a cloth newbie, maybe I am wrong? If I am EBF for 6 months, and then flushing the poo after that, maybe the room WON'T get stinky? Maybe there is another reason not to do it?

Let me know what you think... and, if you are particularly crafty and can think of something that I can do to make this hamper CD friendly, let me know!

Sorry- I am not sure how to make it clicky.

You can get hanging "pails". Like this:

We have a hanging bag for our room and it doesn't get stinky (although I'll catch a whiff of it sometimes when I'm walking by). My only worry is that the pillow case would get wet just hanging there.
