We went with the Champagne Bronze finish to coordinate with the gold accents in our lighting and hardware selections (read more on those here!). The Delta Trask Single Handle Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet with Soap Dispenser uses sleek, contemporary lines to bring a sophisticated feel to the space. Hello! The Delta Trask™ Kitchen Faucet, available exclusively at Lowe’s, provided both the form and function we were looking for. ( Catch up here if you missed the big reveal!)

DIY ZEN SWADDLE PLUS
PLUS they all make the best wrapping paper for a sweet baby gift. We added a fancy embroidery stitch to one, a ribbon trim border to the other, and finished with a hand dyed swaddle with an embroidered monogram. With this in mind, we created three DIY ways to add a little pizazz to basic swaddles to give to the new moms in your life. Mary gave me the sweetest swaddles when baby was born and I used them all the time. Baby was SO little and I loved swaddling that tiny baby in my arms. Watching Meghan become a mother reminds me of my own time with a newborn. For gift giving, roll each one up to create a little bundle and tie with twine or ribbon.In honor of the recent arrival of Royal Baby Archie, baby gifts have been on the brain. Now that you've made one swaddle blanket, it won't take you any time at all to make a couple more. To finish the swaddle blanket, simply run each side through your serger, encasing the raw edge within the rolled hem. If you haven't experienced the awesome-ness that is Jet-Air or ExtraordinAir threading on Baby Lock sergers, I highly recommend taking one for a test drive! Since it's so easy to thread a Baby Lock serger, it wasn't an issue at all switching thread colors. Because of this, I used white thread for one set and light pink for the other. Thread your serger with the thread color of your choice.Įach set of swaddle blankets featured slightly different colors in each set. I used my go-to Ultra Soft Fusible Stabilizer from Baby Lock for both the monogram and embroidery design.įor a rolled hem finish, set your serger up for a 3-thread narrow rolled edge with a length of 0.75-1 and a width of 3.5. For the first set, I added a monogram that I created in EmbroideryWorks.įor the second set, I used this sweet embroidery design. So far, I've made two sets of swaddle blankets and used different types of embroidery for each. (OPTIONAL): Add embroidery to your blanket.
This will be a decent sized swaddle blanket, but if you want a bigger square, purchase 1 1/3 yard of fabric and cut to 44" square.Ģ. Once washed and dried, cut your flannel or double gauze to 36" square. Pre-wash your fabric, preferably with fragrance- and dye-free detergent.
