3 Baby Shower Front Door DIYs
Are you hosting a baby shower? Don’t forget a little front door decorating cute enough to wow guests. Try these DIY projects cleverly designed as baby shower gifts!
1. BABY GIFTS WREATH
A fun baby shower should start at the front door. So let’s rethink the wreath and make it a gift the new mother will love and use.
Supplies:
- Wire wreath frame
- A variety of gifts which may include: burp cloths, baby toys, small baby toiletries, baby bottles, diapers and clothes.
- Onesie
- Baby clothes hanger
- Sign (if wanted)
- Rubber bands/zip ties
Directions:
Roll up diapers, burp cloths, socks and clothes (if wanted) and secure with rubber bands. Use zip ties to secure on the wire wreath frame. Finish with baby toys interspersed throughout the wreath. Add the sign to the middle using zip ties to secure. Hang the onesie on the clothes hanger and snap the bottom onto the wreath. Hang the wreath and hanger in 2 places. The onesie may not be strong enough to hold the wreath.
2. BABY SOCKS FLOWER ARRANGEMENT
Instead of buying flowers that will eventually die, make sock flowers for baby’s feet!
Supplies:
- Baby socks
- Tree branches
- Large vase or container
- Receiving blanket
- Ribbon
- Other presents (if wanted)
- Rubber bands
Directions:
It couldn’t be simpler. Lay a baby sock flat and roll it up starting at the toe. Fold the top of the sock around your roll and secure using a rubber band. Make a bunch of flowers. You can also use burp cloths and washcloths for bigger blooms. Look around your yard for a large tree branch. Add the sock flowers to the branch ends. Arrange in a reusable container. Wrap a receiving blanket around the container with a bow and stuff more goodies inside. Of all the baby shower gift ideas, we like this one the most. It is so easy and definitely stands out.
3. STORK DIAPER BUNDLE AND DELIVERY BOX
Why are storks associated with delivering babies? Its origins are rooted in ancient German folklore which spoke of storks finding babies and delivering them to houses in a basket. The legends might have been lost were it not for Danish writer Hans Christian Andersen’s 19th-century fairy tale “The Storks.”
Use this classic fairy tale theme for a stork-inspired diaper bag and delivery box.
Supplies:
- Diapers
- Receiving blanket
- Diaper pins
- Pacifier
- Ribbon
- Rubber bands
- Shipping box (recycle one!)
- Black paint or black marker
Directions:
Roll diapers and tie with rubber bands. Fold the blanket lengthwise with create a knapsack. Stack diapers in a pyramid on the blanket. Tie the blanket on top and decorated with a ribbon bow, diaper pins and pacifier.
