Need a quick and easy baby gift?  This wreath is not only pretty but practical too.  Most often new moms don’t get these little kinds of necessity things as gifts so why not present them in a cute way?  These wreaths are a hit at baby showers.  They can easily be made in a few hours with very little hair pulling. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Needed Items:

A 10” Styrofoam wreath form

14-15 #3 diapers with a cute pattern

Curling ribbon, your choice of colors

Assorted baby items, enough to attach one to each diaper

Wreath hanger, if desired

 

  

First off, fold the diapers in half and around the wreath form and tie them to the form as shown.  They should be tied fairly snugly with about a 2-1/2 foot strand of ribbon.  Use enough ribbon to be curled later.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then I arranged the little gifties to see where I wanted them.  I used another strand of ribbon around the diaper to tie them on.  Again the ribbon will be curled so use enough ribbon. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After the gifties are secured to the wreath, curl the ribbons.  Trim as needed.

I made the ‘bow’ at the top by using about 15 strands of ribbon about 3’ long, securely tied in the middle and curled.  Fold the ribbons in half and tie to the top diaper, around the ribbon used to attach the diaper.  Arrange and again trim as desired.

Voila, a nice gift that couldn't be any easier.
