Burp cloths and a wipe case that were made for a friend.


This set also includes a nursing cover, a changing pad, and an embellished bag.
Covering a wipe case is super easy and you'll look très chic carrying one of these in your purse or diaper bag :)





Supplies you will need for this project:
1. Huggies diaper wipe case
2. Fabric (enough for 2 pieces approx. 10" x 6" & 1 piece approx. 12" x 2")
3. About 3 ft of trim
4. Batting (enough for 2 pieces approx. 10" x 6")
5. A piece of ribbon approx. 10"
6. A cute button for embellishment or whatever else you want to use
7. Scissors
8. Hot glue gun



1. Trace the top and bottom of the wipe case on the wrong side of fabric leaving extra space all around. (that's for folding down on the sides)


2. Trace the top and the bottom of the wipe case on the batting. (You can trace right against the wipe cover, you don't need extra for the sides.)


  3. Glue the batting to the top and the bottom of wipe case.



  4. Glue the fabric to the top and bottom of the wipe case. Fold the extra down on the sides and glue those too.



5. Take your ribbon and measure it the length on the top of the wipe case. (Leave a little extra on the sides so you can glue the edges down.) Glue to the top of the wipe case.


  6. If you have any extra ribbon or fabric hanging over the edges make sure to trim it.


  7. Take your trim and make sure it's long enough to wrap around the 3 sides of the top and the 3 sides of the bottom. You don't need any trim for the "spine".


  *If there is enough length, start at the spine and glue just a little there and then start wrapping around the edges of the top. Glue a little at a time. Then do the same for the bottom edges.


  This is what it should look like at this point.


  8. Measure the length of the spine and add an inch. Measure the width of the spine and add an inch. Cut a strip of fabric those dimensions. It should be about 12" x 2". You just need enough to fold under the edges of the strip of fabric.


  9. Fold over one edge. Glue it.


  10. Fold over the other edge making sure your strip of fabric is wide enough to cover the spine of the wipe case. Then glue it. Do the same thing with the top and bottom of the strip.


  11. Glue it to the spine making sure to cover the beginnings and endings of the trim.


  12. Last, you add the button. Decide where you want it to be and then cut out a little hole in the ribbon and the batting for the back of the button to sit in. Then glue it in. And you're done!


  Like I said, très chic, right?!
