Like most moms, I feel like I am constantly changing diapers! With all that diaper changing leads to a hoarding of diaper boxes. I have an issue with throwing them away! It seems very wasteful and I can put them into a better use. So I relied on Pinterest to see what I can do with them and fell in love with the idea of fabric covered storage bins.
So I turned this:
Into this:
The fabric was left over from when I decorated my daughter's nursery so I decided to attempt this nap time. It was far easier than I thought it would be. I did not do any measuring really. I simply just stretched the fabric and used my hot glue gun! I did trim away extra fabric so that it was not bulky looking around the edges. It was really easy! I finished the entire project in 45 mins! Leaving me time to make dinner while she was still napping!
We are currently in the process of finishing our basement and can see many of these in the space down there. Maybe even getting extra fancy and attempting lids.
The only down side of this project is that the box is just a little big to fit in the cubby holes of storage furniture. So maybe a little measuring and extra cutting to have that happen. I really like the idea of this fabric covered boxes instead of the canvas ones that they sell in stores. Why do I keep adding more projects to my list!
Here it is in her nursery!
