Below is my super awesome nappy/diaper bag that I ordered from Etsy. During my search for the bag I was also looking for a wipes case, a diaper case and a travel changing pad, but it was all so expensive, I couldn't find any sets and I couldn't really find anything I liked. Not long after I ordered the bag I realized the fabric came from Ikea, so on my way back from SLC one afternoon I stopped off and picked up a yard of the fabric and attempted to make my own diaper bag accessory set...
I found a plastic wipes case at the dollar store, padded the top and with a glue gun covered it with the fabric and some ribbon to smooth out the edges, I added a green button for some color.
Next is the diaper case so they don't go flying around the bag. I had no pattern for this so was pretty impressed at how it turned out. It also has velcro to keep it closed.
Lastly we have the travel changing pad, this is the outside...Ikea also had some waterproof material so I did the other side in that in case of any accidents!
Opposite side of the changing pad.
All in all I am very happy with how it all turned out especially as I kind of made it up as I went along. I really need to work on my detailing, but so far so good!! Another project down...I think burp cloths are next and one day I will finish the bumper for the crib!
Now if only the actual diaper bag would hurry up and get here!!

Dude that is awesome! I love that it all matches, the diaper case is my fav!
ReplyDeleteI made a play mat from some ikea material-we had blue and red heart pattern, don't know if it's the same choice over there. I made it like a quilt with wadding in about 1m x 1.5m. I sewed the edges and then halfway across both ways so it folds in quarters but it's quite thick for baby to lay on or sit on. Maybe after the cot bumper you could make one in your matching material!
