How to Make a Cotton Ball Fire Starter

This is a very useful fire starter that you can use on camping trips, in your fire at home, or anywhere you choose!  They will burn from 2-3 minutes depending how much Vaseline you put on and the size of your cotton ball.

You will need:
1 cotton ball (per fire starter)
Some Vaseline
A small zip lock bag (to hold finished ones)
A paper towel (to clean up)

Get a good amount of Vaseline on your fingertip and spread in though out the cotton ball.  Do this until there is only a small portion of it that is not covered (the part you are holding).  Do not put the cotton ball directly in the container because it will come apart.

Now make as many as you want!  Put them in a plastic bag.  It is a good idea that when you use them you spread a little more vaseline on them because some of it will stick in the bag.
