Change Pad Cover


I am such a sucker for pretty and cute material. My friend Jenn decided to make a run for the border and hop over to Jo-anns fabric. Well real friends don't let real friends shop at Jo-anns alone ( and this being her first time someone had to show her the ropes and how to save a Canadian buck with all those coupons!) So off we went across the ditch.

Back to my dilemma, I see this super cute whale flannel, buy 2 yards ( with a 50% off coupon...6.99!) and then though about where I could hoard it until that special project came along. Well no more. I told myself, I HAVE to make something with it NOW. So I found this great tutorial from Prudent Baby about how to make a change pad cover. Now I know G is now one and really had I decided to do this, I should have done it at E's birth...OH well..something new for each of them. To make it even more special, I added some personalized labels, made via Pick your Plum, to say Carolyn made this!

I love it, I am sure it would fit like a glove on this contoured pad, if mine wasn't totally warped from its millionth change...its outta shape...OH well...for 6.99 I'm pleased with something new.

**Sorry for the not so bright pic, the next shows the true colourings**

my pretty "made by Carolyn" label

you can see my change pad is a little warped...its OK..I'm not buying a new one!
