Retro Baby Nursery Gifts Made Out Of Vintage Colorful Tablecloths

Do You Need A Baby Gift For A Retro Mom & Baby?

New moms who like Retro accessories for their baby will enjoy "Vintage Whimsy Wipes". I found these terrific items on Etsy.com at a shop called "Shop Southern Yankee".

Made Out Of Old Vintage Tablecloths

These handmade fabric covered baby wipes are one of a kind and simply adorable. What a cute idea for a handy holder for wipes when traveling.
And I adore the bright exciting color combinations ribbon and button trim. These fun and funky baby gifts would go great with a coordinated retro diaper bag. You can find plenty of shops on Etsy.com that also make handmade diaper basg out of vintage fabrics and tablecloths.

According to Jennifer " "Through our collecting, we pass on the fabrics of our mothers & grandmothers to our daughters & granddaughters".

Shop Southern Yankee has other creative Retro inspired nursery gifts including, vintage baby planters filled with cute vintage baby stuffings such as blocks, spoons, old baby cards etc.
