Homemade Bandages
I guess it started when I worked in construction. When I would cut my hand, I’d just cover it with a bit of napkin and wrap it in duct tape. I found it was much more effective and durable than a band-aid. Not to mention cheaper, and quicker than going to find a band-aid.
I realize that sometimes you need a band-aid, quick! Like when a kid gets hurt, and is crying. But when it comes to dressing one of my own wounds (even a small one) I prefer to cut a piece of gauze, cut strips of medical tape, and build a custom-sized bandage.
Do you build your own bandages; and if so, what special techniques etc. do you use?
