A practical step-by-step guide to loading, sealing and carrying the GOTS Lierre wet wipe cover so wipes stay moist at home and in the nappy bag.
Quick answer
Load a standard wet wipe pack into the GOTS Lierre cover, thread the flap closed over the opening and tighten the pack seal before every trip. The cover protects the pack and hides the plastic, but it does not seal the wipes itself, so the pack's own resealable flap does the moisture work.
What the cover does and does not do
The GOTS Lierre cover is a fabric sleeve with a carry strap, sized for most standard wet wipe packs. It keeps the plastic pack out of sight, gives you a clean handle to grab with one hand and lets the print match your cushion or diaper bag. It is not an airtight container: moisture control still depends on closing the pack's own sticker flap properly after each wipe.
That distinction matters on long days out. A fabric cover slows down spills and abrasion in the bag, but if the inner pack is left open, wipes will still dry at the edges. Treat the cover as protection and organisation, not as a replacement seal.
When a fabric cover is the right choice
Choose a fabric cover if you want a lighter, softer alternative to a rigid plastic wipes case and you change bags often. It folds flat when empty, fits a nappy bag wipe cover slot easily and can be tossed in the wash with baby laundry. Skip it if you need a hard case that survives being crushed at the bottom of a stroller basket, or if you regularly buy oversized or non-standard wipe packs that will not fit the sleeve.
Step-by-step: loading and carrying the cover
- Check the pack fits before you open it: Compare your unopened wipe pack with the cover's opening. Most standard packs fit, but oversized packs or hard tubs will not. Common mistake: forcing a too-large pack stretches the fabric and makes the flap hard to close. If the pack bulges the seams, use a smaller pack rather than cramming it in.
- Slide the pack in with the opening facing the flap: Insert the pack so the resealable sticker faces the cover's opening, then pull the first wipe through. Checkpoint: the pack should sit flat, not twisted, so the flap closes without pinching fabric.
- Reseal the pack's own flap after every wipe: Press the pack's sticker flap down firmly before closing the fabric cover. This is the step that actually keeps wipes moist on the go; the cover alone will not stop drying. Common mistake: closing the fabric flap while the pack flap is still open. Make resealing the inner pack a habit, not an afterthought.
- Close the cover flap and use the carry strap: Fold the cover flap shut and lift the cover by its canvas side strap rather than grabbing the fabric body. Checkpoint: the strap should take the weight so the pack does not slide out when you pull it from the nappy bag.
- Refresh and wash on a routine: When you swap in a new pack, shake out crumbs and wipe the inside. Wash the cover with baby laundry according to the care label, and dry it fully before reloading. Common mistake: reloading a damp cover, which makes wipes feel clammy. Keep a spare cover so one can dry while the other is in the bag.
