    Update - Let me clarify,. this is not my idea, I saw it somewhere and made them. I think I can cover just about anything with fabric and it will be pretty. LOL

    Here's a picture of one I did already. Just had so many because I coupon shop and they are about 19 cents after triple coupons. Just find fabric to glue on top and bottom and wahlah,....cute little gift. Of course, I am thinking betty Boop fabric, 30's, whatever for a cover for the more mature girls in the family.

    Oh...you can trim it out and embellish it also.

    WOW!!! Gotta love it, so much prettier than the plan boxes. My"girls" still use them for cleaning sticky fingers and faces.

    Oh how cute! I'm lucky if I get a .50 off coupon for wipes. Not one store doubles or triples coupons in our area. I have to buy bunches for soldiers.

    You can buy refills for these too so not a waste. Our triple places are Tom Thumb, kroger and Brookshires. Other's do double all the time.

    Our Tom Thumb's triples the prices, not the coupons! LOL

    I'm trying to see how you did this. So, you cut the fabric to size....do you leave an overhang to glue and tuck inside? Or, do you use a fabric glue to just glue the whole piece of fabric on and then glue on the embellishments? You don't use batting, do you?
