Make It Monday: Carseat Canopy and Diaper Strap

This is my latest carseat canopy and diaper strap design. I created this set for one of my dearest friends who is expecting a little girl very soon; can't wait! I love the simplicity of this design. I used burlap style fabric for the cover, satin ribbon for the ties, and a black fabric paint pen for the "sweet baby." embellishment.

There's a great tutorial on how to make a canopy like this one over at Oopsey Daisey.

You can check out my original Diaper Strap post for more information on this handy little invention. 

Here are some photos of my previous carseat canopy and diaper strap designs:

 I no longer have an Etsy site to sell my wares, but if you're interested in a custom made carseat canopy and/or diaper strap feel free to send me an email at modernmommycanada@gmail.com and I'll see what I can do.


Happy Monday!

Trixie the elf has been busy keeping an eye on Sophie and Willow this holiday season. She's also been busy getting into all kinds of mischief around the house. Here are some of the things she's gotten into over the last few days.

Modeling Mom's jewellery.

Exploring the Christmas tree decorations.

Hanging from the light fixture.

Leaving Sophie a special message with Cheerios.

Eating candy from the gingerbread house.

Trying on the magnet shoes on the fridge.

Having breakfast with Little People.

We're having a blast with Trixie, our homemade version of the Elf on the Shelf. For more elf mischief ideas see my first post here.
