Baby Shower Diaper Wreath

This was a fun idea that my daughter and I created after seeing some similar ideas on Pinterest.  I used the wreath as decor for my sister's baby shower and then gave it to her as a gift.  

 To see the full owl themed baby shower click HERE.

Supplies needed:
1 straw wreath, size 14 inch - leave plastic covering on it
24 size 2 diapers
tulle - colors to match your theme
rubber bands
baby supply items
ribbon - color to match your theme
paper plate
artwork or clipart to go on your plate
hole punch

(printable instructions)
Wrap diapers around wreath securing with rubber bands.

Tie tulle onto each diaper to hide rubber bands.

Use ribbon to tie baby items to wreath.  I put the ribbon through the diaper and secured the item to it tightly with ribbon.

Glue design to back of paper plate and hold punch each side.

Tie plate onto the back of the wreath with ribbon going through a diaper on each side.
Use tulle to create a loop to hang the wreath.

The completed project!!

    I love that you made it into a wreath, rather than the traditional cake. The entire shower is gorgeous. I love owl themed baby showers. I'm sharing your shower on my facebook page. Thanks so much for sharing at Whimsy Wednesdays.
