How to Make Baby Shower Nut Cups

Diaper nut cups are celebratory party favors at baby showers.

Diaper nut cups are party favors that baby shower hosts often serve to guests. They are made out of folded cloth napkins to look like small baby diapers in order to fit the theme of baby showers. You can serve party foods such as nuts, mints or pretzels in them. Each guest can receive her own diaper nut cup, and you can make them in a variety of colors and with a variety of snacks.

Things You'll Need

• Cloth napkins
• 1 safety pin per napkin
• 1.5 cup snack food per napkin

Instructions

1. Spread your unfolded napkin out on a flat surface.

2. Fold the napkin in half by bringing one of the corners to meet the corner opposite it. The napkin should now look like a triangle.

3. Turn the napkin so that the point opposite the longest side of the triangle is facing you.

4. Fold the points on the left and ride side of the triangle so that they meet in the middle, and hold them together with one hand.

5. Fold the remaining point up and away from you so that it meets and goes over the two points that you are holding together.

6. Fasten all three points together with a safety pin.

7. Hold the folded napkin so that it looks like a cup and fill it with snack food.

Tips & Warnings

• Use pastel napkins and/or pastel safety pins to enhance the baby theme.

• Before placing the food in the diaper nut cups, place a doily or tulle circle inside, for a fancier presentation.
