If you are looking for a personalized gift for an expectant mom you know, then consider using your creativity to make a diaper wreath. A diaper wreath is a wreath of diapers with colorful toys and ribbons decorating the wreath. It's sure to make a big splash at the next baby shower you attend.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • Disposable diapers
  • Wreath frame
  • Ribbon
  • Large bow
  • Scissors
  • Toys/baby necessities
  • Tape
  • Floral wire
Step1
Decide on a theme for your diaper wreath that highlights an animal or a color. Choose colors that will go in the nursery if you know the color scheme.
Step2
Open each disposable diaper and put them around the frame of the wreath with the open side of the diaper facing out.
Step3
Tie each of the diapers onto the frame using a ribbon so the bow you make when you tie the ribbon will face the front of the wreath, in the center of the diaper.
Step4
Adjust the diapers so there are as few gaps as possible on the wreath.
Step5
Use ribbon to tie on toys and other baby necessities such as pacifiers and bibs onto the diaper wreath. Try to distribute them as evenly as possible. Secure the items with tape, if needed.
Step6
Add a large decorative bow to the top center of the wreath.
Step7
Create a loop with floral wire and attach it to the top of the wreath so it can be hung on the wall.

Tips & Warnings

  • Instead of using a wire frame, you can use a straw wreath and use dental floss to attach the diapers.
  • You can use baby pins to attach small, soft items such as bibs and socks.
