Baby Shower Motorcycle

This will be a long one because I'll go step by step on how to create a motorcycle made out of all baby stuff, a perfect gift for your next baby shower!

I want to give credit to http://www.sweetaprils.com for giving me the step by step tutorial to do this! 

(If you want to see more examples go there) 

Your arty fartsy needs are: 34 diapers Pampers Swaddlers Size 1 (17 for each tire), 8" cake pan, 3 rubber bands, 2 receiving blankets (30x30 approx), 2 bibs, a pair of socks or mittens, a baby bottle, 1 washcloth, scissors, pins, a stuffed animal (size approx between 15" and up to 20"), and decorative ribbon.   

First you will have to make the tires by putting the diapers into the cake pan.

When you use all 17 diapers the tire will then be ready to put the rubber band around. 

I used some extra large rubber bands laying around the house that was perfect for it but you can use normal ones too.

You fold the receiving blankets in half then fold them up like the picture bellow.

You first put one of the blankets through both of the tires to secure them together, you will have to pin them down to each other as you will later see.

You want to make sure the ribbon is on the tires before you secure them down!! 

I pinned the ribbon to the diapers and then put that part on the bottom so no one can see.

Pin the blanket down like this.

Afterwards you'll want to pull the other blanket through the first tired for the handle bars.

First put the bib on top of the tire, roll up the wash cloth around the bottle, take the blanket and secure it with a rubber band (sweetaprils said to use a chain link toy but I didn't want to buy that). After I put the rubber band around it, the blanket was flopping over so i tied a bow around it which helped it stay up. 

To keep the handle bars stiff I put half of a toilet paper roll in the blanket.

You could roll up a wash cloth or use tissue paper to stuff the socks but there was enough blanket left over for me to not need to do that. 

This was the bow i made to help the handle bars stay up.

Tada!!

I took the ribbon I had left to make this bow for the bear. 

I stuck a pin in the bow then wrote the to and form and pinned it on him. 

So perfect of him!
