Hello all! If you remember me from my last post, I've been trying out alternative menstrual products...or at least toying with some of the ideas. I went online to see if I could get menstrual sea sponges, and well- they're not the cheapest things out there, and they come in a 2-pack. I went to the craft store the other day and was looking at paints when I saw a shelf full of "artist sponges", which were silk sea sponges that looked exactly like the ones I saw marketed online for periods, only there were about 5 in a pack and they were only six dollars! I was wondering if it would be safe to use them for my period if I were to wash them thoroughly and soak them in peroxide or vinegar before I used them. I'm very much on the fence about this. It would be an awesome deal if I could, but I don't want to do it and give myself an infection from something. Are these two marketed "types" of sponges all that different?
