$1 Pom Pom

This such a sad picture of the pom poms but I didn't want to use a picture with faces showing to keep things courteous to the guests at the baby shower.
I followed THIS tutorial on Martha Stewart's website. I also found THIS youtube video that REALLY helped make them look better.
Every website that I found said to use 8 pieces of tissue paper. I found that if I used 10 or even 12 they looked prettier and nice and  full

How to Make a Diaper Wreath.

Get a $1.00 wreath and hair elastics from the dollar store. I think I used 30 something newborn or size 1 diapers. A month ago I knew, sorry. :O)
You keep the diaper folded, and just open it and slide it on the wreath. secure it with a clear or white elastic band. As you add them push them to be over lapping.


Here is what it looks like pre-decorated. :O)



 Then I used ribbon and weaved through the diapers. I did it a second time so the every diaper had ribbon in the front. I just added a couple ribbons hanging and a little bow. You can also adding little baby toys or a pacifier, etc to it. I liked the clean look with just ribbons.
