Monogrammed Diaper Bags

Monogrammed Diaper Bags

When you are thinking about a practical gift for a new mom or dad; a monogrammed diaper bag is a good choice. Monograms can be custom embroidered, photo transferred, appliquéd, or done in tarpunto techniques. A single letter monogram is always a classic choice, but if the baby’s name has already been chosen, you could go with all three initials.

Monogrammed items have always been popular. There’s just something kind of classy about a piece that is personalized. If you choose a classic style of diaper bag; it can easily transition as the child gets older into an overnight bag for trips to grandma’s house. One thing is sure; a monogrammed diaper bag will not get mixed up with others at day care.

You will want to choose a bag with pockets on the outside as well as zippered pockets inside the bag to keep things organized. It should be in a durable fabric like cotton canvas. A padded, adjustable strap will make it more comfortable to carry and stroller straps will give you a break form carrying the bag. The bags that come with matching accessories such as insulated bottle holders and changing pads are especially nice. If you choose a classic style and fabric; dads will be more than willing to carry it.

If you are thinking about a monogrammed diaper bag as a gift, be sure to allow plenty of time for the monogram to be completed. If you order online or through the mail; allow about ten days for the purchase to arrive. Many baby boutiques also offer monogramming and there are kiosks in most malls that offer all kinds of personalized gifts. Usually around the holidays, one will pop up with monogrammed items just for babies and children. In that case, you can pick up an item of clothing to go with the bag.

Maybe you think monogrammed diaper bags are just way too L.L. Bean for you, but you can find them in a variety of colors and prints to suit any taste. The toile print bags are particularly attractive and the diaper bags are offered in traditional pastels and baby inspired prints. I have also seen them in animal prints. Diaper bags can be a fashion accessory as well as a necessity for carrying all the things you need for your baby.
