I need ideas

[mlr42002]

I want to make a paint can for my friend who is about to have her second baby. I am thinking about putting owie stuff in it. Like tylenol, bandaids, butt cream, that kind of stuff. I need ideas on how to decorate the outside. We don't know what the baby is yet.

Great idea for the owie stuff! How about some coupons too! Decorating...well how about matching the nursery colors. Of course, there is the ever popular yellow and green themes! You could also use primary colors for later toy / little stuff storage.

I would do pp that has to do with bandaids and doctors. I've seen some of that stuff around. Or find a band-aid stamp and great your own pp by stamping it all over white in different colors. Which could get expensive if you don't have many stamp pads.

I will have to do with just wal mart supplies so I don't know if I will be able to find dr paper. But I will be able to find embellishments to go with that.

Or go with the colors they're using for the baby's room. There are so many cute baby papers out that you can find something really cute.

Wal-mart has some cute stuff...I bet you can find something.

I think wallies carries some jolees, or paper bliss, and there are some doc/nurse embellies that have stethoscopes, etc. What about using some real bandaids, and some q tips, as decorations too!

She is using the same nursery as her first baby. And it is frogs and flowers. So maybe something springy huh? then she can use it to put other stuff in the can to decorate the room

[monica]

Frogs and flowers would be very cute!

[ceekay]

Sounds like you will have lots to choose from, and froggies and flowers would be cute!

[DearAbby]

Just go with funky flowers that look good in case it's a boy!

I had to go with baby stuff b/c that is what I have the most of.

I think this is a great idea. I can't wait to see it.
