Baby Gift Ideas

Hello, thank you for stopping by.  As promised, here are pictures of the projects I have been working on over the weekend.    Here is the "bouquet of flowers" made from onsies!!!  I must say, this is NOT my original idea.  I search the internet for "unique" baby shower gifts and I came across an adorable onsie flower bouquet!  I said, "I HAVE to try that!!!!"  I am very happy with the way it came out.  I used some silk flowers and leaves to make it come alive. ( check out the butterfly!!) There is filler in the bottom as well.  All of it is sitting in a clear paint can.  I thought mom would be able to use it as a barrette can or something when baby gets bigger.
Now the diaper cake!  It is made up of.... (drumroll) diapers!!!!! (LOL).  I do have some receiving blankets in the middle as the anchor.
I used rubber bands and ribbon to hold it all together.  These are soooo much fun to make.  I love when someone is pregnant, I don't even have to know them and I am ready to make them a diaper cake!  Isn't that funny??  These two beauties are for my neighbor who just gave birth Friday night!  Timely, wouldn't you say?!  If I can get out in about 3ft of snow, I will take it to her (right next door, literally) tomorrow before the NEXT snow storm hits tomorrow night!  Again, thank you for stopping by.
Chow for now, Shann
