One of the things that I always wanted my baby to remember, is that his mum made custom things for him and his bedroom.
While I was pregnant (some months ago…seems so far away now), I was searching for boxes to put in his bedroom.
I wanted something fashionable and practical (which is not very usual or simply expensive), but even searching in the great baby shops, I still couldn’t find anything that I liked.
So putting my pregnant head working, I decided to make my own boxes.
I went to IKEA and saw these boxes (comes in a Pack of 3), then in another shop bought some ribbon and the final work is here:
Used:
- Set of 3 round Boxes (this pack is also in squares) from IKEA
- Ribbon
- Special glue for these materials
How to:
- Take out the Lid of the Box and measure the ribbon and how you are going to glue it. Mine is horizontal, along the diameter of the box, in the middle upper side of the box.
- Put some glue drops (not too much or will stain the ribbon) along the ribbon and box while putting the ribbon in the box surface.
- Let it dry properly
What are my boxes for:
- Big Box: Nappies
- Medium Box: ointments, Vaseline, lotions, antiseptic gel for hands
- Small Box: Dummies (Pacifiers), Dummy Holder
