Baby burp cloths and wipe containers

Wipe Covers

What you will need:
1 plastic wipe container (Target sells 1 for 1.00$)
1 piece of fabric cut to 10 inches by 13 inches
1 piece of thin batting cut to 11 inches by 8 inches
ribbon to match
hot glue gun

Instructions:
-glue top of container and press batting to both sides of container (glues on both sides of the outside crease where wipe container bends to open)
-glue on fabric to batting and cut sides to fit (glue around sides) for a tight fit
-decorate the wipe container as desired
-glue on ribbon to cover jagged sides where fabric stops (make sure ribbon meets together when wipe container closes)
-sometimes you need a velcro strap because the container won't close so I just used the same ribbon and stuck a cut out square of velcro with a sticky back and attached and glued it to the container in the front
Enjoy!
