When making hand-crafted items for infants in the hospital, be sure to use washable materials and to not wash them with fabric softeners, perfumes or sachet as these may irritate their fragile skin.

If you are searching for a more personal baby shower gift for a friend, consider making a diaper bag out of fabric that coordinates with her crib bedding set or nursery color scheme.

When making baby gifts for an expecting mother as a gift, check her registry and take a look at the baby bedding she has registered for. This will give you a color scheme and theme ideas for your crafts and your handmade item is sure to fit in!

Recycle items usually thrown out like plastic containers etc..and use them in your crafting, not only are you saving money on crafting supplies but helping the environment to boot. I use plastic baby wipe containers to store my sewing/craft supplies in. I use empty dish soap bottles to create cute little girl purses with crochet tops.



Jewish Baby Names
This is the home of the Hebrew Birth Plate, a ceramic Birth Certificate carrying your baby's Jewish name and Hebrew birth date. The Hebrew Birth Plate is made of a bisque ceramic tile, silkscreen printed and then hand painted with acrylic colors and hand written according to the custom order with a fountain pen using acrylic ink and then coated with acrylic varnish and framed in a solid wood frame.

To get a good result with polymeric, water-basted lacquer, apply at least 5 coats. I apply one coat when the tile is cold and then heat the tile. When the lacquer is dry, I cool down the tile and apply a new coat and repeat for as many times as I want coats of lacquer.
I found out this method by myself, but later I discovered that this technique is very similar to the Chinese lacquer techniques already used at least for 1600 years working with the Chinese lacquer, which is a natural varnish made from the sap of the lacquer tree.

Use a wood burning tool to trim satin and grosgrain ribbon. It trims the ribbon and seals the end to prevent fraying in one cut.

Here's 3 tips for making diaper cakes:
 
1. Never use pins to attach any item to a diaper cake. You don't want the new mom to discover them by accident (ouch).
 
2. For the rolled styled diaper cakes, buy the translucent rubber band so that you don't see the brown color of the standard rubber band. You can find these in the beauty supply section of most stores.
 
3. Some diapers have printed patterns. Decide up front if a printed pattern would look good in your final design. If not, choose an all white diaper.

Just for Baby Crafty Tip

My best crafty tip would be to never be afraid to make mistakes! With sewing, mistakes can always be undone, thanks to a trusty seam ripper. When being creative, you have to explore new ideas. You have to be open to possibilities and results. So making a mistake every so often is no big deal. In fact, when it comes to being creative, I don't think there is such a thing as making mistakes. Its all part of the process of exploration!
