Two Bundle's of Joy Blog Hop


Hello Everyone,

Welcome to the Two Bundle's of Joy Blog Hop.  We are all so excited to celebrate the twins that are due to arrive soon. 


If you just stopped by, please start at the beginning with  Nicolette's Blog. 


I wanted my project to be something creative but very practical.  Every mom needs diapers.  So here's what I started with.

My supplies are, one cupcake tower, 6 girl and 6 boy onesies, 12 pair of socks, 24 diapers and 4 binkies.

To create the cupcakes, I laid out the onsie.


Tuck the sleeves in and fold the shirt in half.  Then fold the shirt in half again. 
Roll the shirt up real tight, like a sleeping bag.

 Place a rubber band around the bottom to hold the roll together.

I then wrapped some paper around the cupcake and glued on some ribbon.  I rolled two diapers together the same way.  With the diapers as the top layer, I held them all together with a strip of paper 3 inches high. 

For a special cake topper, I used the binkies, floral wire and a bamboo stick.  I alsoused some Wilton baby rattle party favors and stuck them into the top of the diapers.
 

I hope this onesie and diaper cupcake tower gives you some inspiration for the next time you need to create a baby gift. 


Your next stop on the hope is Miranda 

Thank you for stopping by today. 
If you get lost along the way, here is the complete hop line up.
