Cutest Baby Gift EVER!

I am so pleased with the outcome of this baby gift and think it's the


 CUTEST 


BABY 


GIFT 


EVER!


 I was lucky to find this unique old magazine rack at a garage sale. It is the biggest one I have ever seen.
I painted it up for a cousin that is having her first baby. But before I painted it, I used 4 inch vinyl lettering down the sides. After painting it, I just pulled off the vinyl letters to expose the wood and did a bit of distressing and sealing.
I had fun shopping for children's books to fill it...
I think it is so cute and useful being two sided.

Don't you think it's a unique idea for a baby gift?

  6. I think that is the best idea I've seen. It is child level and wouldn't hurt too much if it were pulled over. Wonderful gift.

  16. Not only is it a unique baby gift, it is a wonderful gift - teaching the love of reading young.

    Your cousin's child will love knowing that you made it.
