$1 Baby Doll Goodies!

So we had a little girls birthday to attend this weekend and I wanted to make her something extra special!

I saw all the awesome baby doll accessories from 12 Crafts Til Christmas and got all the inspiration I needed!
If you haven't headed over there to see all the cute doll stuff she's been making...you need to.

So I knew I wanted a baby doll diaper bag and accessories.  
I created my own diaper bag...check back for a tut coming soon!!!

And of course needed diapers and wipes.  I followed her same tut for the felt wipes.
Check em out!
They turned out great!  And for 25 cents per felt sheet at Hobby Lobby, 
I made 2 play wipe sets for $1!!!

Here's how I made my diapers:

What you need:
2 - 8x11 sheets of fleece (look where they keep the felt sheets...only 50 cents a piece!)
velcro
sewing machine, scissors, thread, etc.
*Note:  Adjust your size in accordance with the doll in mind.*


What you do:
Step 1:  cut your sheets of fleece in half short ways
Step 2:  fold your fleece halfs in half
Step 3:  cut a 2 to 2.5 inch triangle from the folded corner
Step 4:  sew the velcro in the diaper corners with a zig zag using white thread

All done!  I scored 4 play diapers for $1!!!

So to re-cap...you can make play wipes and play diapers for only $2.  Nuff said.
Enjoy!
