DIY Baby shower gift.

Well it finally happened. My oldest friend has her first baby March 10th. She is so tiny and precious. I am visiting her in the hospital today and thought well I need to bring her something special. So I am going to share with you an awesome and pretty easy DIY baby gift for little girls. A headband holder.

Okay so things you will need

~ an empty big container of oatmeal
~wrapping paper of your choice
~ribbon of your choice
~ small candle holder with a flat bottom
~Stickers for a name if you so choose
~embellishment for the top

First you are going to wrap the oatmeal container in the paper of your choice. I had to wrap mine twice so  you couldn't see the original wording. Make sure to get the paper under the lid for a cleaner look. Then you are going to measure out the amount of ribbon you need to go around the container once. Cut it and make another one the same length. Wrap ribbon around the top and base of the wrapped container. I use E6000 glue it is by far the best that I have found. If you glue it with that its not going anywhere! Then I took a big flower and glued it to the top to give it a little bit of a decorated look. Then I used some sparkle letter stickers I had to spell out her name. Lastly turn the candle holder upside down so the open part is on your table. Put glue on the bottom (The part facing you) and stick to the bottom of the container for a more finished look. Now your headband holder is ready for some cute little headbands!

Here is what my finished product looks like! Hopefully she likes it.
