Hello all,
I love this topic. I really thought I was already a member here but I had to register. I must have just always been a reader but never contributing. Shame on me.
My husband and I both use cloth for all our TP needs. I just bought some cheap washcloths from walmart in three different colors. One color for my #1 use, one color for my #2 use, one color for my husband's use. I don't have a menstrual cycle anymore so that is not an issue anymore.
I really wish we had done this many years ago. We have probably been using cloth for about 2 years now and LOVE it. So soft and just easy to care for.
We each have a bucket under the bathroom sink that we put our used cloths in. We also each have a drawer that we keep our clean cloths in.
When the buckets get full or if I am doing laundry, I just add them to the wash. For the #2 cloths, I just have to make sure the load isn't too full to ensure they get clean.
We line dry our clothes all the time now so I feel that being outside helps to sterilize the cloths.
We do not add any water or any other type of cleanser into the undercabinet used buckets. We used to but it seemed to just make things really smelly and disgusting. All the used cloths are just put into our individual buckets and washed regularly. When I empty the buckets, I then spray a vinegar/water solution in the buckets and wipe them out.
