Hoop Wall Art
These are fun and fast decorations for a little one's room. You can really add a splash of color or personality to a drab wall. Anyone else live in a beige-walled rental?
Changing Table Pad Covers
Changing pad covers take about 30 minutes to make. It's great to have something soft to lay baby on and it's a fun way to decorate the nursery. See instructions here.
Toddler Flat-ish Sheet
Ready to transition to a toddler bed? Making a flat sheet with fitted bottom corners is a great way to keep your kiddo covered at night. The fitted bottom keeps the sheet in place despite tossing and turning.
Quick Drawstring Toy Bag
Need a simple bag to contain a toy collection (cars, train set, blocks)? This drawstring bag can be assembled during naptime and, if you find fabric on sale, will cost $2-5. This was the first time I let my toddler pick out fabric. Pretty fun.
Creative Containers
Tots have toys, tiny toys, and they need some place to go. We save empty coffee and oatmeal containers to corral toys and I recently decoupaged a few with fabric and wrapping paper to make them more fun. See directions here.
Fabric Ironed onto Wall
Need a simple, cute, removable decoration for your child's nursery walls? This just might be it. Find the easy directions here. The possibilities are truly endless!
Fabric Covered Toy Boxes
So many toys, so little room. This is a great way to make a custom toy box by recycling a wipes or diapers box (have 1 or 2 on hand?) and covering it with your choice of fabric. So far I've made 3 of these!
Crib Teething Guard
Got a busy beaver in your nursery? Crib guards are easy and inexpensive to make. It's a soft and cute way to protect your crib investment and keep that baby from ingesting anything he shouldn't.
Polyhedrons a.k.a. Paper Balloons
These amusing paper balloons are quickly made. They are such a colorful and fun addition to the nursery. My little guy loves to watch them twirl.
