To make a diaper pizza, you will need the following materials:
1. Large pizza box: Start by opening the large pizza box and placing it on your work surface.
2. Receiving blanket: Open a receiving blanket and center it over the bottom of the pizza box. This will serve as the base for your diaper pizza.
3. Diapers: Take a diaper and place it on your work surface with the back side facing up. This will be one of the “slices” of your diaper pizza. Repeat this process with as many diapers as you want to include in your diaper pizza.
4. Satin ribbon: Cut an 18-inch length of 1-inch-wide satin ribbon. This ribbon will be used to tie the diaper pizza together and give it a decorative touch.
5. Baby care items and toys: Stack small baby care items and toys on the center of each diaper slice. You can include items such as baby wipes, pacifiers, teething toys, rattles, socks, bibs, and small stuffed animals. Get creative and choose items that the parents-to-be will find useful and cute.
6. Measure the top of the box: Before assembling the diaper pizza, measure the top of the box to ensure that it fits properly. This will help you determine the size of the receiving blanket and the number of diaper slices needed.
Once you have prepared all the diaper slices and stacked the baby care items and toys on them, it’s time to assemble the diaper pizza. Here are the steps:
1. Start by placing one diaper slice in the center of the receiving blanket in the pizza box.
2. Take the next diaper slice and place it next to the first one, slightly overlapping them. Continue this process until all the diaper slices are arranged in a circular pattern, resembling the shape of a pizza.
3. Once all the diaper slices are in place, gather the edges of the receiving blanket and bring them up around the diaper slices, forming a bundle. Make sure the blanket is secure and tightly wrapped around the diaper slices.
4. Take the satin ribbon you cut earlier and tie it around the blanket bundle, securing it in place. You can tie a bow or a knot, depending on your preference.
5. place the diaper pizza in the center of the pizza box, making sure it fits snugly.
And there you have it, a beautifully made diaper pizza! It’s a fun and creative way to present a gift to expecting parents, and they will surely appreciate the thought and effort put into making it.
