Features of the manufacture of gifts from diapers

Content

In search of creative ideas for a gift to a newborn, we increasingly began to turn to manual labor. At the same time, it is important to make a present in a short time, because in the modern rhythm of life it is always not enough. Bail out in this case can a gift of diapers, which everyone can do, regardless of their creative abilities.

Special features

The product for the newborn, made of diapers, can be called a special gift. It is always different, because it gives a certain shape, use specific accessories and available materials. At the same time, in most cases, the work takes not so much time, and the finished result looks professional and quite impressive. Such gifts are remembered, the parents of the baby often take pictures of them along with their children for memory.

In the case you can put different things that are sure to be useful for the baby or care for him. These are mainly items of small size and weight. In addition to the diapers themselves, you can choose hygiene products and even clothes to create a creative gift. That is why a gift should be called useful: in most cases there are few elements in it that will remain idle after unpacking.

Depending on the gender of the child, you can create a product for a boy or girl by making out a gift with ribbons of the desired color. In addition, you can pick up gift items in the desired color.

It is also important to note that gifts from pampers are not limited in the choice of shades. Therefore, you can experiment by performing the creative task set for you.

A diaper gift must comply with a number of specific requirements. Here, as nowhere else, cleanliness and cleanliness of the workplace are important. Despite the fact that the gift is made with their own hands, the finished product must meet safety standards. Whatever its shape and size, the product must necessarily be packaged in a film, taking into account hygienic standards. Everything you can, you need to buy in sealed packages.

Execution Rules

Despite the fact that an unusual gift is prepared at home, the implementation process is bound to follow certain rules.

  • It is important to create the most clean conditions not only for the workplace: it should be clean throughout the room, it is unacceptable for dust or tobacco smoke to walk on it and settle down on elements of the future gift. In addition, in the process, you can use gloves. If it is carried out without them, hands must be washed, and several times in the process of implementation.
  • The workplace is covered with a film to ensure maximum cleanliness. Pampers put it on her, they twist only from the front side, in any case do not turn out and generally try to touch less often and only in the case. Diapers will not undergo further heat treatment, it is important to understand this. However, all other items (such as ribbons, diapers) that will become part of the gift must be processed (if they provide for it).
  • Regarding the size of diapers, you can stay on the "two". Too large options are not needed, as well as small ones that may not initially fit the baby.In order not to doubt the choice, you can ask the mother how she trusts more diapers. Considering that a gift from diapers is given no sooner than an extract, the giver always has time to buy the desired type.
  • The decor used for the gift should be new and clean. It is categorically impossible to use sharp and fragile items for the manufacture, as well as the decor, which is able to crumble and fall into the inside of the diapers. In addition, you can not create crafts with parts that can color the assembly elements when touched.

Corrosive paint may be harmful to sensitive baby’s skin.

  • Regardless of your financial capabilities, you need to make a sustainable product. That is why it is better to impress not with size, but with form. For example, do not need multi-tiered structures, because they do not hold well, and sometimes even fall apart, without falling into the hands of happy parents. In addition, you need to understand: not every mommy uses diapers daily for a child, and some of them may remain unclaimed, because children grow very quickly in the first months of life.
  • Small diapers can rub the delicate skin of the legs. In addition, it is worth considering the model of diapers, because the same panties seem to be more comfortable for many, while Velcro often hurt the skin when the baby is chattering with the legs.
  • As for the picture on the diapers, it is just not a matter of principle. It is much more important that the diaper does not rub the skin and squeeze the child’s genitals. Of course, you can pay attention to the colors, but this is only in the case when the picture can be seen after folding or folding.
  • As for the decor, which masters usually use when making candy bouquets or analogues with toys, it will not work here. Neither beads nor artificial flowers are used here. And the point is not in the aesthetic point of view: a trifle can get inside and go unnoticed for the mother, but taken by the child. Flowers can break, and therefore some twigs or decor of the centers can also get inside the diaper.

If nothing else, you need to check the strength of decorative elements. With regards to beads, it is worth taking note: this is a taboo without exception. As for chopsticks or skewers, they can be used, but at the same time, each one should be carefully examined so that there are no notches on it, which can later cause splinters.

If desired, you can replace them with clothespins, fixing some little things right on them. Picking up elements of different shades, you can decorate the product. At the same time there is no doubt that the clothespins will remain unused in everyday life.

What is required?

As a rule, diapers are the basis of the basics. They are different: from the manufacturer's brand and model, to the size. To make the product exactly useful, as mentioned above, you can buy a “two” or even a “three”.

In any case, the mother uses them, putting on the baby for a walk or visiting a pediatrician.

In addition to diapers, it is important to use items that will be in demand in child care. For example, these include:

  • teethers for teeth;
  • towels of different colors;
  • textile diapers (terry, flannel);
  • bibs, bottles, breast pump;
  • rattles, first combs;
  • paper towels in rolls;
  • caps, booties, socks, scratches;
  • creams, powders, massage oils;
  • disinfectants;
  • wet wipes;
  • small spoons, small plates;
  • knitted hats;
  • sliders and blouses.

    In addition, you need to prepare and fixtures. For example, the work may need wooden clothespins, sushi sticks, stationery gum large and standard sizes. Rarely what product does without the base, which is used as a thick cardboard. From it do hung up, which is further decorated with socks or booties.

    You may need and sticks from the rolls of food foil or film. They are used as a basis for the tiers of crafts to hold on to something. Depending on the type of product, scissors, plates of various sizes can be useful in work, less often a heat gun and paper templates. Usually they are used to make identical hangers.

    What can not be used?

    No matter how much one wants to stand out and present a super-unusual gift, one cannot decorate a present with rhinestones, stick glittering stones to the ribbons, pin hairpins. In addition, you can not make the basis of the gift of a bottle of champagne.

    Firstly, it is initially dirty, and secondly, it can break. Third, you need to understand that this is a children's gift. If you want to definitely give champagne, it can be done separately. It has nothing to do with children's presentation.

    As for toys, it is undesirable to decorate a pampers gift with toys with a large pile. We must not forget that the baby, like his parents, may be susceptible to allergies, which can be provoked by a harmless children's toy.

    If you really want to give something useful and beautiful, let it be rubber toys for the bathroom. They are certainly useful crumbs. He can also crush them in his hands, and gnaw, without fear that the nap will fall into the mouth. If you think you need a soft toy, try to pick up a product with a short nap or fleece.

    Getting started, do not even try to use a stapler, as is customary in some masters. It is important to remember that these harmless braces are able to fall off, and this is unacceptable.

    Child safety should come first. As for paper for manufacturing, it must be dense, because any torn off and unnoticed piece may be crumbs in the mouth. Even the temporary substrate for the product must be prepared correctly, it is better to fix the necessary elements with hot glue, rather than a stapler.

    How to fold?

    Today there are a lot of master classes, through which you can easily make a beautiful and effective gift for a newborn. In this case, diapers can be folded in three ways:

    • roll, ranging from the groin area to the belt;
    • laying out in a row on a table with overlapping one on another;
    • using round utensils, inserting diapers into it with an edge, then putting them together with an elastic band.

      Elastic bands are needed mainly for fixing diapers. At the same time, a larger size is used to support a large circle collected from diapers. Smaller ones fix each of them separately, when it needs to be twisted with a roll. Sometimes round blanks do not have a core, in other cases, the basis of the crafts becomes a roll with paper towels or a high feeding bottle.

      You can combine various folding methods if this does not affect the stability of the product. The way of folding on the table with overlapping diapers is convenient and fast, because in this case they are simply rolled up. By the way, you can also use some kind of core. The base in the center will allow you to roll the desired item crafts faster and more accurately.

      How to do it yourself?

      Consider the 7 most interesting solutions of gifts from diapers, step by step describing the implementation of each of them. All of them are quite simple and feasible for everyone.

      Cake

      Make a diaper cake for babies will not be difficult. It can be small, single-tier or consisting of three tiers. Depends on the option of the budget, because diapers are not cheap, as well as the total amount spent on other components of the gift. You can assemble a small and simple version of the cake. Let us dwell on this original product.

      To make it, you need to prepare 90 pampers and as many small stationery gum.In addition, the work can not do without three large rubber bands, a roll of paper towels, 10 small towels for the face, decorative tape, double-sided tape, cardboard or ready-made dishes, small toys and useful decor (at your discretion).

      By the way, for the substrate, you can try to use a large book for kids.

      The build process will consist of a series of consecutive steps:

      • the workplace is covered with a film or treated with an antiseptic;
      • each diaper is rolled up and secured with an elastic;
      • prepare the stand, mark the center and a small drop of hot glue connect it to the roll-based paper towels;
      • around the roll with paper towels set three rows of rolled diapers;
      • having a more or less round shape, they are joined by a large stationery gum;
      • form the second tier of the cake in a similar way, but instead of three rows of diapers, rolled towels are surrounded by two rows;
      • fold small colored towels and form a third tier of them, setting them around a rolled towel;
      • upper tier fasten clerical elastic;
      • gum masking satin ribbons, connecting them either with bows or glue;
      • they set the toy upstairs and decorate the basement with available useful trifles that may be useful to a child in the first year of life;
      • The gift is wrapped in a transparent film and tied with a beautiful ribbon.

        In order not to suffer with the packaging of the finished product, transparent gift wrap can be immediately laid on the work area. Even if it moves a little in the course of work, it is still easier to pack the craft than to lift it and install it. All the elements needed in the work can be placed on the second part of the table.

        Bouquet

        Create an original gift in the form of a bouquet is easy. To do this, you need to prepare the diapers themselves, rubber bands for fastening them, wooden skewers for kebabs (sushi sticks), a vase, and wrapping paper. In addition, a variety of socks, bibs, baby care shampoos, or even powder can be useful in the work. This option can be enriched with ribbons, nipples, rattles. The method of manufacturing such a product is even easier than making a cake:

        • put a skewer in each diaper and wrap it in a roll, slightly opening the edge;
        • it is fixed with a standard stationery gum not in the center, but closer to the bottom edge, so that the gum is not visible in the finished product;
        • they take paper and mask the inside of the vase, because the diapers sticking on sticks will not look beautiful;
        • prepared “flowers” ​​can be decorated with thin paper, creating the effect of foliage;
        • then they are put in a vase and packed in film.

        It is undesirable to insert sticks after the rolls of pampers rolls, because they can simply pierce diapers, and this is unacceptable.

        As for variations, the vase for stability can be filled or created from shampoo, cream, powder and other bottles. Given that even a regular plastic container can be useful in the farm, you can pick up something similar.

        Basket

        This gift is convenient because it allows you to accommodate a lot of functional items that are useful for the baby. The size in this case will depend on the number of diapers, although a large basket will not be practical, given that its handle will be more decorative than functional. For such a product you need to prepare a thick cardboard (for the bottom), the diapers themselves, white threads, satin ribbon 5 cm wide. For filling you need useful small things of light weight (teats, bottles, scratches, socks, booties, bibs).

        Depending on the complexity of the work and the availability of certain parts of the crafts, the step-by-step scheme will look like this:

        • cut out the bottom of the future basket of cardboard;
        • it can be masked with an openwork cloth, fixing it with glue;
        • taking several diapers, they are connected by a rubber band, slightly moving the diapers in both directions;
        • from diapers form the walls of the basket, setting them with a dense wall and putting them in one another for greater strength;
        • You can attach the boards in two or three places to the cardboard base;
        • put two diapers on the bottom without binding, closing the bottom with them;
        • diapers fasten large clerical eraser;
        • a pen is cut out of cardboard, wrapped around it with two diapers, fastened with a string;
        • the handle is inserted between the diapers in the side;
        • on the edge of the basket with a rubber band masked with paper or a ribbon with a large bow;
        • the product is filled with useful trifles and packaged in a transparent film.

          For greater reliability, you can tie the boards not with a ribbon, but with a diaper folded diagonally. So the product will be not only beautiful, but also durable. By the way, diapers can be replaced with a napkin in the process of forming the bottom. About the same principle, you can create a crafts bath. At the same time, the only difference from the basket will not be the one-piece handle, but only its part imitating the water tap.

          Owl

          You can create this wonderful gift from just forty diapers. In addition to them, in the work you will need socks for newborns, a diaper, a handkerchief, gum, a small bib. In addition, masters prefer to use ready-made flowers for this product.

          Since this decor is not always durable and reliable, it can be replaced with the same socks rolled into roses.

          Perform an owl as follows:

          • they take 20 diapers and roll them from the body of a bird in the form of a circle;
          • a circle is fixed with a large clerical band;
          • of the remaining diapers, eyes are made, rolling 10 pieces in circles by overlaying one element over another;
          • eyes fixed with rubber bands;
          • a bib is put on top of the body, eyes are substituted and three circles are tied with satin ribbon;
          • the diaper is folded into a strip of width equal to the width of the diapers;
          • the resulting diaper strip is applied strictly in the center between the eyes, thus forming the outline of the head and wings;
          • the diaper is fixed with a thin tape in the neck area of ​​the future owl;
          • make a nose from a handkerchief and insert it between two eyes;
          • using double-sided tape, flowers are attached, imitating the eyes;
          • Scotch tape can also attach ears, as which you can use socks.

          There is another option for creating ears. To do this, you can use cardboard, cut out peculiar hangings, put socks on them, insert between the upper edge of the eye and the diaper, and bend the ear. In order not to use scotch tape, you can create ears by chintz diapers.

          In the next video, watch a master class on making an owl from diapers.

          Snail

          The basis of this gift will be a circle made of diapers. Its size can be different, although it must take into account the reliability of the product. The more it is, the easier and faster it can fall apart, falling into the hands of the baby's mother.

          On the other hand, the snail is convenient in that not many diapers can be used to make it. Each option will be different, and therefore we will focus on the approximate basic method of making an unusual gift. In addition to the basic material, the work will need a sock and a synthetic winterizer.

            The step-by-step instruction in this case will consist of a series of steps:

            • according to the standard scheme, rolls of diapers are created and each of them is fixed by its elastic band;
            • they take 6-7 blanks and surround them with another one, which is the center of the snail house;
            • after fixing one row, increase the desired size of the mollusk;
            • gum, which secured each roll, removed as the volume increases;
            • the finished "house" is tied with a satin ribbon;
            • create two small circles of diapers, tie them with a wide satin ribbon;
            • A synthetic winterizer is inserted into the sock (diapers can be used if desired), forming a wider part for the head;
            • create a snail's muzzle (if you have time, you can embroider or paste a thermoapplication beforehand);
            • a large circle is placed on a cardboard backing with an edge; a leg is placed next to it in the form of a small circle;
            • the second leg is placed in front, it can be connected with a ribbon with the body of a snail;
            • the finished craftwork is packed in a transparent film and tightly tied with a bow.
            11 a photo

            Since this work involves the use of small parts, you can do it another way. For example, it is possible to use in work not a sock, but a toy of a worm or snake. In this case, there is no need to use small elements to create a face. Antennae can be created from textiles, stuffing it with padding polyester.

            Ship

            Accessories are of great importance for this craft. It is through them that you can create the right mood, even in the absence of additional useful details. For work it is worth preparing diapers, tapes, rubber bands, socks.

            It is advisable to choose ribbons and items with a characteristic marine colors. In addition, you can use a cardboard tube and a plastic container, which later may also be useful to the mother of the baby.

            An exemplary method for creating a ship from pampers will be as follows:

            • Useful household items for the baby (nipples, socks, bibs, a spoon, a teether for teeth, toys on the stroller) are put into the container and the lid is tightly closed;
            • proceed to the formation of the ship on the principle of two- or three-tiered cake;
            • on the container pull a large gum;
            • the diapers are rolled up and inserted between the elastic and the container;
            • for the formation of the nose of the ship on the front of the insert more diapers;
            • using baby towels, close the side face of the diapers;
            • towels are fixed with a wide satin ribbon;
            • form the second tier, fastening it in a couple of places with double-sided tape so that the ship does not fall apart;
            • tie the second tier with a beautiful ribbon;
            • cardboard pipe wrapped with sliders or small towels;
            • the product is decorated with felt anchors and a steering wheel;
            • for the upper edge, you can use sushi sticks, creating the illusion of fencing with them, as well as with twine;
            • the product is packaged.

              In order not to suffer with scotch tape, you can go along a proven path and use a roll of paper towels or a high bottle (shampoo, powder) to attach all tiers of the ship. There may be many options, so you need to select the one that is suitable in a particular case. The stick will allow to connect all tiers, it will strengthen the finished product, which is not the case with scotch tape.

              In addition, it is easier to remove the stick, rather than remembering that there is scotch in the craftwork that you need to remove as you use diapers.

              A machine

              You can not ignore the favorite gift for a boy - a car. Of course, the baby will hardly remember such a gift, but the parents will certainly note that the master has even considered the floor of the baby. For making it worth taking care of the presence of diapers, cardboard, wrapping paper, satin ribbons, socks for newborns, a pair of bottles, diapers or cloth diapers, stationery gum and tape.

              First, the wheels are made by twisting 8 diapers into tight rollers and securing them with rubber bands of the usual size. You can work on another technology: first, twist each diaper, then connect several pieces in a circle and fasten with a large rubber band. The first method is convenient in that it does not require unnecessary work and allows you to create a more precise form of the wheels of the machine.

              Two rectangular blanks are made of cardboard and each of them is wrapped in wrapping paper. Impose a smaller rectangle on the larger. Through holes are made in places of approximate arrangement of wheels. At these holes pass satin ribbons for fastening the wheels.

              Then between the two cardboard layers have round rollers-wheels.Next, on a substrate of a smaller area, which will be located on top, put the diaper first, and then the diapers without any folding. However, they need to be laid, at least approximately forming the outlines of the machine.

              A diaper as a bottom is needed to make it easier to close diapers in the future. On the sides you can stick the lights, making them out of the socks. Over the first diaper put the second, rolled up in the form of a rectangle and imitating a cowl. The cabin is made of the remaining diapers, for which they are either simply laid one on another, or rolled up in rolls, and then joined together with a large elastic band.

              The cabin is wrapped with another diaper, rows of the product are fixed with scotch tape or thin tapes, connecting everything together with the substrate. After that, it will remain to pack the product and tie it with a beautiful bow. To hack looked more aesthetic, you can pay attention to the choice of diapers.

              If means allow, it is possible to use not only flannel variants, but also thin terry towels.

              What else to consider?

              • No matter how much you want to make the most beautiful product of diapers, you can not use paints, and especially those that contain harmful impurities. Such substances can provoke an allergic reaction. In addition, if the master prefers to use water-based paints, he must take into account the degree of risk, because it is possible that splashes of water may fall on the finished product.
              • No need to tighten the diapers with rubber bands too tight when folding each of them. There must be a sense of proportion in everything. We must not forget that in some cases, these rubber bands should be removed after the rows fasten in a circle. Of course, if you are sure that diapers will be used immediately, you can not remove the gum fixing each diaper.
              • In some cases, masters prefer to use not elastic bands, but thin ribbons. Sometimes, instead of elastic rubber bands, they use ordinary wooden clothespins at all, using them as temporary auxiliary tools. Of course, it is impossible to call such devices convenient, but if there are no elastics, you don’t have to choose.
              • It is important to pay attention to the fact that you can not use for fixing useful things that you plan to donate to the baby. For example, it is not necessary to fix the crafts through a garland of toys on the stroller. Regardless of the duration of the attachment of your gift, it will stretch, and therefore will not look beautiful after unpacking the gift. The same can be said about the elastics for hair for girls, which are sometimes used by wizards as fixers for diapers. After this beauty is removed, the gum will be stretched, which will automatically deprive them of aesthetic appeal.
              • As for the packaging, it is mandatory and should be the final stage of the work. You can not postpone this step for later. The standards of hygiene require tightness of the packaging in the process of work, so that neither dust nor any auxiliary object used in the manufacture of the gift gets inside the gift.
              • According to the above master classes, you can perform crafts with different shapes. It can be a variety of shapes, products based on circles, ovals, squares. Clarity may depend on the availability of ancillary inventory or containers.

              In addition, you can use substrates that do not allow your product to deform its contours. For example, it can be a dish, bowl, vase. In skillful hands and a washbasin can serve as the basis for the implementation of a spectacular presentation of diapers.

              You can also make a train, a butterfly, a lock, a bicycle using different devices.
