DIY: How To Make Diaper Babies

I’ve made these a couple of times now. They add a cute bit of pizazz to a baby shower gift basket. Most recently, I made them for my friends, Katie and Tracy, who are expecting a daughter in July.


Materials (for 6)- 6 washcloths, 3 pairs socks or mittens, 6 newborn or size 1 diapers, 6 safety pins, hot glue gun (optional), 12 googly eyes (optional)

  1. Roll the diaper like a burrito (or joint) the long way and place a sock or mitten around one end (non-gathered end is usually the best for not having any design on the babies’ faces).
  2. Use a washcloth to swaddle the other end. Secure with a safety pin. How to swaddle:



  1. Use a hot glue gun to add googly eyes. Or, draw on simple eyes with a black marker.
  2. Use to dress up a gift basket.
