A lot of work? Yes
Fun to decorate? Yes
A hit at the baby shower? Yes
I really did have a lot of fun decorating this. I had so many ideas running through my head that I know I will have to do more of these. And since I don't know of anyone in my circle of friends or family who are expecting anytime soon I just might have to do them and put them on the market! I first saw this done on someone's blog a couple of months ago and when the opportunity arose for me to do it I jumped at the chance. I like the fact that you can customize them by color scheme, boy or girl, characters, it's up to you.
Here are some pictures of what it looked like in the early stages...
As you can see, I made some changes along the way. Oh, and guess what's in the middle-a nice bottle of red wine. Something for the mommy to look forward to-LOL. I also folded and stuffed the bibs around the bottle, which is why you don't see them in the final picture. Now I have also heard you can do a version of this for a bridal shower or wedding gift using towels, so I'll be looking into that also. This baby shower really kept me busy this past week so I'll have more to post tonight or tomorrow.
