First day of the flats challenge and we were out of the house all day long! Fortunately my friend Kerri's idea was a great one! Cutting down a rain poncho and folding it like a second diaper covered everything and provided that water proof layer I was looking for in order to go around without worries.
Origami folded flannel bedsheet diaper under kite folded rain poncho cover. No leaks, trim fit. 2 pins used, one for diaper, one for cover. |
You can check out Upping the Ante - Part II for how I'm using a fleece scarf as a diaper cover. We've had no leaks with that cover today either.
What would be your biggest concern about using "found" diapers?
Wow! That is SO impressive AND you've helped me figure out my lack of flats problem!
ReplyDeleteI cut up one of my husband's old t-shirts today, too. I cut straight across below the armpit/deodorant zone, and also cut two rectangles from the upper back/ upper chest for a doubler. It was really trim and absorbent!
ReplyDeleteYou are awesome!! How fun for you when that next person says to you, "I can't afford to cloth diaper."
ReplyDeleteWOW! I am uber impressed at what you are doing!! Brilliant!
