I love this idea. I have been looking for a bed for my reborns and almost spent 50 dollars on one alone. I am a crafting nut so I now have something to make in the new year. Would love to see more reborn projects if you ever make any.
Thanks for that awesome idea. I actually have two reborns being made at the time. I was going to get them each a baby bouncer but now I'm thinking of making one of these. It would save a lot of space. And even if I do get them the baby bouncers, I might make one of these anyway because it's so cute :)
I think it's awesome that you and your mom can both spend time crafting for and enjoying time with the real babies! I don't have any of my own and my mom is really into trying to fit in, I don't really know how to express my interest in the babies with her AND MY BOYFRIEND still being supportive? Idk. You're one lucky gal!
Cameron. Sails. I have the same problem with my mom she just wants me to fit in and not be playing with my reborn. I bought a bassinet to put my reborn in and she said she was getting rid of it and that I was crazy and I'm not crazy she doesn't understand my hobby.
It depends on what size basket you get. But the basket I used was needed about 2 1/4 yards of fabric. The easiest way to know how much you are going to need is to go pick out a clothes basket and then bring it over to the fabric section and wrap the fabric all the way around the basket and have them cut it! Hope that helps :)
i totally made one my daughter loves it! i would have never thought of it on my own but it was a great idea and was so easy! thanks for making this vid!
I have a micro preemie reborn, I made her bed out of an old box... (yea this sounds kinda bad) but it was a 24 pack of beer (they were in bottles) it was the only box I could find and it's very sturdy... I took that, an old sheet and I stuffed it in an old pillow case and I put that in the bottom of the box and then I took this blanket that I don't use anymore, it's white and fuzzy on one side and very soft and so I put that side up and I tucked all the sides in so it's not so loose, but on the outside I have alot of blanket exposed cause I have it draped down... it's actually kinda pretty and its stuff that I just had around the house, so if some of y'all are tight on money, yall can just do that... but btw I love this video, your babies are cute and this is very creative
Yep exactly :) This is just how we chose to do it. It just to help show you the basic idea of how its made. But you can totally take it and put your own twist on it.
Thanks! Yeah we were in the same situation, I'm glad this helped though! I actually need another bed myself lol We will def try to post some more craft projects if we can think of any. In our next weeks video we are actually going to giving away a bed and we will do another bed video of how we made it. We cut out a few steps/supplys this time.

Lol Thats what I did. :)
Awesome, you totally should :) I bet it'll come out super cute. Congratulations!! :) It's soo exiting getting a reborn! That is such a cute name, it's very unique.
When I saw your two bed tutorials I just HAD to subscribe! Your videos are so awesome and I will definitly do this! I am not going to use velcro though. I prefer your second video idea. Mostly because I can't find ANY velcro in ANY craft store in ANY isle! XD Classic me!
It was 2 1/4 yards of fabric, which wrapped around the whole basket. I just picked what size basket I wanted and then brought it over to the fabric department and picked out the fabric I wanted and wrapped it around the basket. And that's how much I told her to cut. I hope that helps :)
I was looking for a place for my new reborn and made a little clothes basket bed also but yours is much more nicer then mine lol. i'm gonna have to redo mine using your technique :)
If you don't wanna buy the fabric you can just cover it with a baby blanket or a sheet :) Or even a towel. Just be as creative as you want. You don't have to do it the way I did. I just made it to give you an idea of how to do it. Hope that helps! :)
oh brilliant I want to save some space in my room. me and my partner have 2 reborns cassie and jayden. at the moment they have single baskets and they take up soo much room. so I wanr to make double bed for them to share. I absolutely love the owl material you have. so lovely and perfect for a boy and girl
You can get them off of ebay or you can contact a reborn artist to get one custom made. I usually recommend ebay for your first baby :) Search around and see what you can find, you'll find a baby that's perfect for you!
I don't have a toddler so I don't know. My longest baby is like 20 something inches and she fits in it with room to spare. But when you go supply shopping you can measure the basket to see if it is long enough to fit your toddler. I'm sure it would fit a toddler though as long as they weren't all spread out lol Hope that helps! :)
Awh u got a cute cat I have two.One is14 years old and is a boy his name is Tiger.And the youngest is Princess who is 3 and is a girl p.s her b-day is on x-mas

This would be gorgeous with lacy fabric! Great tut. Thanks for sharing!

This is beautiful when and if I get a washing basket I might make it and your voice is lovely
What a neat idea, and I'm sure fun to make. I'll have to remember this when I get my first reborn.
Geez, that looks so comfortable. I could sleep in there myself.
This is great! Thank you sooo much!!! I just got my first reborn and I did not want to spend over $50 for his bed, so this is perfect! ^_^
+Emintoahs X you could of bought a first years portable crib for $35
great idea! thanks for sharing! Your kitty is soo cute, so are your reborns! I love the fabric you chose!
I have the same exact basket. Thanks for the ideas. Have to go online and buy fabric. Why the Velcro and then the glue? Thanks
Desire'sOf KAT'S-heart What was the length for the material? 3 ft? TY
Yep exactly :) This is just how we chose to do it. It just to help show you the basic idea of how its made. But you can totally take it and put your own twist on it.
We made that :) We just picked out that kind of fabric and sewed it in a rectangle. We got the fabric at hobby lobby.
how much fabric did you start with? this turned out cool, thanks for doing this video
thats too adorable i might try to make one myself! im getting my 1st reborn this weekend. his name is Rylan!
Thanks! Yeah we were in the same situation, I'm glad this helped though! I actually need another bed myself lol We will def try to post some more craft projects if we can think of any.

I remember watching this over and over when I was younger
Me too, almost 7 years ago. Now today im rewatching this again because I’m finally awaiting my first reborn girl! I’m so excited!
Where do you reccomend getting a cheap carseat, bouncer, or swing from? By the way, cute idea for a bed!
I love its where you got the things at to make the baby
It was 2 1/4 yards of fabric, which wrapped around the whole basket. I just picked what size basket I wanted and then brought it over to the fabric department and picked out the fabric I wanted and wrapped it around the basket. And that's how much I told her to cut. I hope that helps :)
I just finished my bed. Going to do a video so you can see what I did. Thanks so much for the idea!!!
I was looking for a place for my new reborn and made a little clothes basket bed also but yours is much more nicer then mine lol. i'm gonna have to redo mine using your technique :)
i love the crib very simple and dont need a lot of materials
If you don't wanna buy the fabric you can just cover it with a baby blanket or a sheet :) Or even a towel. Just be as creative as you want. You don't have to do it the way I did. I just made it to give you an idea of how to do it. Hope that helps! :)
where did u get the pink fluffy pillow?
Hi i was wondering were you get your reborns at because i am wanting to get one
This is such a cute idea to personalise for my reborns
When you use the velcro do you have to hot glue it on because my velcro is sticky back will that work?
Glitter Cat Sticky back should work fine, I just prefer hot glue because it's strong :)
thanks
Glitter Cat
That'll be soo cute! :) Post a response video! I'd love to see what it looks like!
How munch material do you need for this project?
oh brilliant I want to save some space in my room. me and my partner have 2 reborns cassie and jayden. at the moment they have single baskets and they take up soo much room. so I wanr to make double bed for them to share. I absolutely love the owl material you have. so lovely and perfect for a boy and girl
Aww thats such a cute name! I love it! I bet your excited to get her! :)
How much yarns of material you need?
I love this idea! I may do this for some special custom orders.
gonna do this with my sister in law and our babiesssss cant wait
how much fabric do you approximately need?
where did yu get the velcro
You can get them off of ebay or you can contact a reborn artist to get one custom made. I usually recommend ebay for your first baby :) Search around and see what you can find, you'll find a baby that's perfect for you!
How much fabric did you buy?
This was very helpful :) luv this video!! It turned out really cute :)
Where did u get ur reborns? If u got it from ebay i tried but it didn't work for me. I was going to give it to my little cousin.
I bought most of them off of ebay and a few were made by Junebird Nursery.
Whether it's using flannel?
thanks!!! I just watched your video on Facebook... I am going to try this project ...
What is the length of the fabric?
how long for the material ?
where did u get ur reborns
can i use any kind of clothes basket
I don't have a toddler so I don't know. My longest baby is like 20 something inches and she fits in it with room to spare.
But when you go supply shopping you can measure the basket to see if it is long enough to fit your toddler. I'm sure it would fit a toddler though as long as they weren't all spread out lol Hope that helps! :)
Now that is just adorable!
Love the idea I will try it soon for my reborn. Love the cat too! lol.
we're do you get thos baby toys
I’m using this for my toddler Brooklyn! Hopefully it turns out good.
How mant yards of fabric do you need
very cute

Haha I know thats why I loved it! I am challenged when it comes to making things so I made it as simple as posible :)
Thank you, I love it, great job
Yeah totally! :) You can just hot glue it together. You don't have to follow this exactly, just whatever works better for you! :) Good luck!
wont that melt it?
Do you need ribbon?
How did you come up with this idea?
Where do you get Velcro from
Try using acetone to remove it. Just make sure to wear gloves and are protected when you use it, it is toxic.
uhhhh waiting for birthday baby ! I can't wait to try this:)
Awesome! That'd be great. I'd love to see it :)
sticky baked velcro is very very good x
Hi nice and creative be safe and blessed.
Good idea and great job!
Aww thanks! :)
I'm glad it helps!
Your welcome :)
I was one of those people who wanted to know!
So I totally don't mind sharing. :)
I've gotten some of them off of ebay, and then the rest I get custom made from June Bird Nursery. :)
Thank you - what a great idea!
