Gifts for new mommies


Baby wipe casesHey all :)  I know I haven't been around for a loooong while.  I have a lot of catch up posts to make. Weee! Thought I'd start with this weekend's projects. 

I have one friend that just had a baby, and another that is about to have a baby.  I made one of these for a previous friend and she really enjoyed it and had lots of people ask about it.. so thought I'd make some more.  It's a baby wipe case masquerading as a clutch.

I altered the design a little since the last one so that the band closes with velcro to help keep it closed and the wipes fresh, and open up so that you can still use the wipe pull opening.

They're pretty easy to make if you want to make some of your own.  It's some fancy 4" wide ribbon (the roses), 2" wide or so satin ribbon, rhinestone buckles, and a Huggies baby wipe case.  Just add some hot glue, rhinestones, tiny butterflies.. your choice. :)

That is unbelievably clever! What a fabulous idea. If anyone I know springs a baby I am sooo making one!

Thankies! And they're really fun to make too. I actually made one for myself to go on camping trips because sometimes there's just not easy access to water. If you *pack* baby wipes with you, it's amazing how many you end up going through. lol

Thank you! I had fun making them, and I really like the new more accessible design. The old one made the little flap permanently closed. I've missed LiveJournal too. I guess I just let myself get too busy and then I realized it was a year or so since my last post. Ugh! So, going to make an effort to get cracking and put up some of my new stuff.

Hi, my name is Laura. I found your your lj on your Realm of Venus showcase. I really liked the dress, and love this little clever idea too, so I added you as a friend. I hope that is okay!
