How to Make a Diaper Bear
~ This diaper bear cake idea was submitted to our website by Shara E. from Baldwin Park, California ~
Create a fun teddy bear gift for your next baby shower! These cute crafts are fun to make and full of usable supplies for both mom and baby!
For this baby shower craft, you will need:
- 1 package of size 2 diapers
- 1 roll of 3 inch ribbon
- Double sided sticky tape
- Pacifier
- Wiggly eyes
- Bib
- Decorative items like sunglasses, brown felt and a black pom pom.
To make this baby shower craft, I rolled size one diapers and then wrapped the completed roll with 3 inch ribbon.
Start by rolling one diaper, then place it in an open diaper and continue to roll. Keep adding diapers in a snowball pattern until you have reached the preferred size. Make a smaller ball for the head and a larger ball for the body. Wrap each roll with ribbon.
Roll one diaper for each ear, hand and feet. Wrap each with ribbon.
Then connect each section of the bear with double sided tape (Ribbon to Ribbon) to complete the Bear shape. Decorate with above baby items.
Thanks for sharing this baby shower craft idea with us Shara! It is fantastic!
