Sarah and Amber told me they found a free template online.
Complete with a 'stamp.'
My team was assigned size three. I knew they were planning on making a cake for the shower, and I wanted to do something fun. A few years back I remember someone giving the mother-to-be a diaper wreath. I decided to get it a go. This is actually even easier than a cake. It would be fun at the entrance to a party or welcome to a new baby.
I grabbed a foam wreath from the dollar store.
I wrapped the diapers around the wreath and tied them to it (a rubber band would work too).
I overlapped the diapers (about 14) so no wreath would show beneath.
I bought a bunch of little odds and ends (teething rings, baby products etc) for diaper toting moms, and these little Sneaky Feet at a boutique. I was originally going for green and blue, but after I found these, I just went with bright colors.
I tied the socks and toys to the wreath, alternating sizes, and items.
I added a tag. Usually, I'd add a bow, but I thought the larger frog ring did a good job of tying it all together.
It was a fun way to deliver a package of diapers.
now that is just too adorable....
ReplyDeleteAdorable! I am going to a diaper shower next Sat. I am going to attempt to make a tricycle?! If the tricycle fails I am going to do this, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteOh and can I pin this on pinterest?
Diaper wreaths are my favorite thing to give. They are especially nice to hang for Mom when she returns home from the hospital, it's just a great thing to go with the welcome baby sign. The fact that they are SO much easier than the cake makes it even more fun. I use a hair tie around each diaper, then mom gets a bonus, and let's face it those first few months you'll need them, lol.
ReplyDeleteThat's a really cute idea! I'm going to use that some day!
