I am not super crazy when it comes to being green although I do recycle anything that can be recycled and try to reuse a lot of things too. With my son Mason I started to realize just how many plastic wipe containers I was going through and I knew there had to be an alternative. I decided to take my big plastic container and personalize it with vinyl. Then when I needed more wipes I would buy the larger refill pack because I wouldn’t waste the plastic containers AND the large refill packs were cheaper. I have found that these make awesome baby shower gifts because everyone loves a personalized gift and after they outgrow diapers and wipes these plastic containers are great for storing things like color crayons, action figures and so much more! To make your own you just need a vinyl cutting machine such as a cricut or silhouette and vinyl. Measure your wipes case and then cut the name to that size. I usually just eyeball the letters when putting them on, but you can also use the vinyl transfer paper so that the letters are applied perfectly spaced and even. So I want to know – do you have a silhouette, cricut, or neither?Enjoy,

Great idea, we have tons of these wipes containers too and it is great to find a way to reuse them. I don't have a silhouette or cricut. Looks like they would make labeling lots more fun!
