Diaper Garden Gallery: Holly
December 2002
Where you are, is it downright chilly? As the days get shorter, there isn't much in the garden to remind us of the green spring. But the thorny holly sticks it out with its fiery red berries. Many of us bring holly, holly berries, and their colors indoors with us in the middle of the winter to celebrate our Holidays. Happy Holidays to you and yours.
Setting. The striped holly in this photo is in our own backyard, just out the window as I write. Evergreens are quite inspiring themselves, but everreds! It is understandable that so many people around the world decorate their houses in green and red in the darkest part of the year.

Holly fitted cloth diaper and cover set
We gave customers a lot of choices for these holiday diapers. Choose color on the outside and solid or hand-painted stripe binding. This makes for a wild production line. I don't necessarily recommend so many choices, but I liked the results with the candy-cane trim on the solid colors.

Almost-in-One Holly contour diaper set
Our usual curvy contour diapers looked great with the stripes emphasizing curves.

Holly wool covers
All wool covers included wool holly leaves and berries. The leaves were sewn so they had holly-leaf texture while still holding close enough to the body of the cover to leave it washable. The red was a bit too pink for some parents of boys. Personally, I've never had a problem putting a boy in pink.

Candle Sets
OK, we all know we didn't make these candles, but they were a really nice something extra. Great hand-poured votives from Crystal Journey.

Wool / Cotton Blankets
Cozy blankets had wool on one side and cotton or hemp/cotton on the other side. Customers chose colors for each side and for trim as well as crib-size or just big enough to haul around as a blanket buddy.
