Diaper & Wipes Case — by Guest Mom Jane Maynard
This is one of my all-time favorite mommy “gadgets” so I just HAD to share it with you. My friend Marie’ made this diaper/wipes case for me and I LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT. I am not kidding when I say I was using a brown lunch bag to carry a few diapers and a wipes case in my purse before I received this beautiful gift.
So, how can you get one of your very own? Well, they do sell similar products like this at Babies R Us. But if you are crafty, you can really make something cute, and patterns are popping up everywhere. For inspiration, here are other cases Marie’ has made. And my artist-friend Melissa made this seriously stunning “poopy clutch” based on a Martha Stewart pattern for something completely different. Talk about creative.
Regardless of how you get your hands on one of these puppies, you’ll be glad you did.

The "poopy clutch" link isn't working, and I would love to see what your friend Melissa is making. Can you fix that link or just post what it is here?
Jane, my mom, Julie Muelleck, was great friends with your mom when you guys lived in Salt Lake. We came to your house in NJ when I was in high school. It's neat to see all the great things you're doing--I forwarded these links to my mom and she loved reading them.
More to the point, where can I get my hands on that gorgeous leather bag?????
Thanks so much for sharing. I love it!! I was just saying to a friend this AM that I need an updated way to carry my baby gear. Love it.
(found you through Jersey Baby--your site is gorgeous)
I would also love to see the poopy clutch!
I really need to reorganize as well. My baby is getting older and I'm ready to consolidate. Yippeee!!!
marie DOES make such beautiful things! don't you think she needs to open up an etsy shop?
I can see another use for the “poopy clutch,” something to help keep my son out of the wipes; he is quite adept at emptying an entire container in short order. Also, if it wasn’t working before as mentioned, I had no trouble getting the link to work.
That's cool. Why didn't they have such stylish stuff when my kids were little?
Blessings,
Linda

I have an adorable diaper clutch that I bought from the etsy shop inspiredbyjenna. Love, love, love it.
To echo julie@letter9, where is that beautiful leather bag from? I'm dying to know.
How awesome are those? I need to trade some jewelry for a couple of those lovelies.
These are adorable!
leather bag...from MARSHALL'S! (you guys are finding out all my cheap secrets!) :)
the poopy clutch link is working for me...soo...if it's not working for you, go to http://melissaesplin.com/home/ - click on arts & crafts on the left under "categories", and scroll down just a little bit - it's about the 5th post down. you'll love it! :)
lima bean...ahh, that julie! your mom commented earlier this week! so fun - can't wait to tell my mom! :)
adrianne - tell marie' to open an etsy shop right away! that is a great idea for her!
There's another link, www.diapeesandwipees.com, that I found through a magazine a while back (can't remember now which one). They have the same concept with cute fabrics. Wish I had known about them when I was expecting my daughter! Now she's out of diapers, so I'll have to wait until next time. :) Great idea!
Moms everywhere will be pea-green with envy over that leather bag and case. Actually, I'm not a mom and I'm jealous of that leather bag! Lovely.
Etsy has tons of diaper clutches available in all kinds of patterns and designs.

etsy is the best! good thinking...
Is that Heather Bailey's fabric on the case? I absolutely love her designs!
your bag is super cute, I see that you got it at Marshall's, but what brand is it?
amanda...it probably is heather bailey...I see this pattern all over the place - cutest fabric! :)
the brand of the bag is liz claiborne...and my sister-in-law just bought one on the other side of the country last week! get to marshall's ladies! :)
