Through the years!


The first diaper I ever successfully finished. Handsewn :) It was just a fitted (not water proof), but it was the beginning!

Upgrade! Several years later... these are some diapers I made for a friend's baby shower. Note the "beef" diaper has red blood-like inside. :D

Prefolds and wipes for a friend :

And now... The latest set! These are small sized covers for a woman here in town. She's BUYING them from me! Yay. I'm not sewin' for free exclusively anymore lol

This is the first one I made before I knew if she was having a boy or a girl. It's got microfleece on the inside - because I thought maybe she would be using prefolds (just a thick piece of cloth folded up and set inside the diaper)... so rather than have the glossy, sticky side of the PUL (waterproof part) stuck to the baby... I added microfleece :) for soft squishy comfies-nesses! :biggrin:

She tells me she's having a boy and wants nothing to do with any sort of "violent prints" like... camo, guns, angry type stuffs. Green fishies! Cute, very boy, and not angry.

Yeah thanks, Saucy.

[KommieKat]

You should seriously consider marketing these.

I my kids days, they were drab looking vanilla in color, though still functionalbe.


Give some out to girlfriends first for their impressions.

From there, you need mass produced at your specs.
There are lots of shops out here in Honk Kong just for that kind of thing.

Let me know what you think, and I could investigate.
We could be onto a good thing here............

[Blood]

I REALLY love them Josie!
No joke, my sister Sarah said that she wants another baby JUST so she can have a reason to buy a bunch off you without her hubby getting mad. :rolleyes:
I'm trying to talk her down by saying they make pretty cool gifts for expecting mothers...shes got friends that are about ready to pop so why not share the wealth? Also they are a great investment for folks that are on a budget... diapers are expensive yo!

Out of 10, 10 being better than 1 :


Skill : 8

Usability : -1 (personal scale)

Marketability : 9 ( as long as you target 1st time moms and 1st time homo dads)


As a former shitty diaper changer I can attest that I WOULD NEVER use anything that I had to wash.

However .. you're gonna have LOADS of sells because first time moms are 100% fucktarded for that sort of thing.

Yeah, I know =/ what was up with that anyways? Fabric came in color back then... so like...???



Give some out to girlfriends first for their impressions.

That's pretty much all that's happened til now. I sewed for me, for friends, and for family. Almost all have always said I should sell them. I tried my damndest to get them to be honest about anything that wasn't functional about the design so I could change it. They just kept staring at me and then the diaper and were like "yeah.. well I like 'em."

*sigh* So frustrating. I want stuff that I sew not to have drawbacks. You know, when you have something you really like but there was just that one lil thing - it wasn't a big deal so you ignored it... etc.

I wanna know that stuff!

I think my window of opportunity for that has closed. I should have been on the diapering scene at least 5 years ago. There are so many brands and work-at-home-moms who sell stuff that it would almost be pointless.

There are a million and one different designs. I almost guarantee you there's some woman out there with a fist of cash - her name already stamped on a design nearly the same as mine.


I spent my time customizing to my children and friend's children... when if I was really serious about trying to become a cloth top dog - I shoulda been bustin ass forever ago. :baffled:

Thank you for the info though! I might change my mind as interest grows in my area.... ? maybe?

if I do start trying to do all the legal stuffs and what not, I'll be sure to let ya know :biggrin:

[Josie]

As a former shitty diaper changer I can attest that I WOULD NEVER use anything that I had to wash.

Okay, fancy nancy... let's look at it realistically. You change a shitty disposable. You throw it in the garbage. Add perfume to cover up stink. Pull bag of trash (come on.... don't lie. This is nasty all on its own). Walk to outdoor trash bin. Take to curb.

You change a cloth diaper. You throw it in the soak bucket. You dump the contents in the wash machine two days later. Wash. Dry.

...and never come into contact with poo. ESPECIALLY with cloth wipes. They don't seep poo through like disposable wipes. EW.

Same amount of work - 2 different concepts.


However .. you're gonna have LOADS of sells because first time moms are 100% fucktarded for that sort of thing.

Actually, this is not true. First time moms are terrified of being moms (yeah, happy and shit - but they're scared.) They go for what's marketed to them on a mass scale - and what their friends do. What's at the grocery.

MOST women who take a serious interest in cloth have multiple children and started either late with their first child (usually between 6-9 months) or are trying it out with their second child because they had terrible experiences with disposables the first time around.

People want what magazines and tv commercials advertise. That'd the huggies, luvs, and pampers.

It's usually the thinkers/readers that start to go "hmm... cloth... maybe?"

1) for cost
2) for baby's comfort
3) for less icky (myself included)
4) "for the environment" - I'm not sure I buy this. This is also a marketing problem. The way we clean things is wasteful, etc. - I did quite a bit of research on both disposable impact and cloth impact on the environment. NOT considering production of disposables - they're nearly equal. Considering production of disp.s... yeah cloth is a lil friendlier... but really? You're gonna justify "better for the environment" with an inch?
5) they're cuter! Yes, this IS a reason for some switches. haha

[Blood]

However .. you're gonna have LOADS of sells because first time moms are 100% fucktarded for that sort of thing.

Umm, i think you have that backwards...experienced mothers would be just as willing, if not more so than first timers to buy them.

All of the poo handling aside, having to buy diapers every week is way too expensive for most people.
Folks these days do god awful stuff like making their kids sit in for long periods of time (i knew a lady that used exactly one diaper a day to save money) and that ends up causing more problems. Hell, clean diapers will cause kids to break out, but you can imagine the damage that it does if the kids gotta sit in his mess for long periods of time to save money.

In the long run cloth diapers are just plain smarter. Its just that most folks are too lazy to find other alternatives to disposable ones or they don't fully understand how cloth diapers work.

If you are scared of a little shit, then you have no business having kids...baby's shit, you won't have to deal with it forever, so there is no need to be a pansy about it. :tongue:

[Josie]

1st time homo dads)...

It just occurred to me that the reason we used paper diapers at first was because of me.

My husband was pro-clothing. And ... he's kinda mister macho.

Then, when we finally switched - he was like "see, shoulda listened to me, woman."

The whole reason I ended up doing the research I did for environmental impact was because of him. I was afeared of the mysterious cloth nightmare that I knew nothing about - but I had changed a disposable or two in my babysitting days. So... I used my research to convince him to let me buy pampers.

He was never big on buying diapers every week.

As soon as our grocery bill started reflecting the switch, he further drilled his point home... and when we ran out of clean diapers in the first two weeks and I asked him to run to the store for disposables... WOOF.

Bad times.

LOL he was content to go get a kitchen towel and some duct tape..

I went to the store.

Bullshit.

Your way has the added step of having YOUR washing machine become a fecal swimming pool.

Show me a detergent that is anti microbial or anti bacterial and I show you a family that has constant skin irritation.

I don't give a fuck how trendy it is to have your brat shit in its pants over and over again .. the greatest invention in child rearing since the abortion has to be the DISPOSABLE diaper.

Bullshit.

Any skank that popped out more than one kid NEVER does the same thing with kid two that she did with kid one.

Business plan 101:

1. Set up a shop on Ebay.

2. Market your bacteria farm cloth as the "new" thing to save mama earth, give fake ass stats like "over 100 billion disposable diapers a day are added to land fills".

3. Market to all the hippie SOCAL moms and various hairy under arm hemp smoking crowds.

4. ???

5. Profit.

[Josie]

Bullshit.

Oh, dear. I guarantee you YOUR washing machine has seen some .... interesting things.

That said... uh... very lil poo goes in. it all washes away. that + soap + hot water + rosemary oil + tea tree oil = no worries. Even without the oils. You're paranoid.



Show me a detergent that is anti microbial or anti bacterial and I show you a family that has constant skin irritation.

...and you claim not to be a consumer baby! That's where the bullshit is hiding, mister. Soap + water = suds. Suds destroy the structure of bad stuffs. By breaking the water tension.

You do not need the weirdo chemicals they sell you to sanitize a darn thing.

...and those weirdo chemicals are actually less effective (especially in the long run. and really ought to only be used in hospitals, where it really is important to go the extra paranoid step for health safety.)


I don't give a fuck how trendy it is to have your brat shit in its pants over and over again .. the greatest invention in child rearing since the abortion has to be the DISPOSABLE diaper.

haha, you just keep stomping on your own toes. It's okay to like disposables. But um... they're the trendy diapering actually.

Cloth diapering has changed... but it's been the norm MUCH longer than paper/plastic diapers with perfume and special chemicals.

[CrAnIuM]

Oh, dear you just keep stomping on your own toes..

I second GDP's comments.....might just be a guy thing, although I remember, not so fondly, trying to wash diapers with our first child. That lasted through maybe 2 months before we gave up on that.

However, first time moms/enviromentalists/neo-hippies/trust-funders will absolutely buy these. Check at the patent office for possibility of another product already in the works or applied for!

Good luck, can't say anything bad about entrepreneurship!!!!

[Bunnee]

You rock Josie. I do really love those diapers, even though I wouldn't use them myself.

I use disposables because I'm lazy.

You can make like baby toys too, like stuffed octopii and sew bells and crinkly plastic into its legs. My kids had one and they nommed it to death. Or those little baby blankies with the teddy bear or whatever at the top corner and personalise them. And hoodie towels, theyre so awesome. i love hoodie towels

Ooh and bottle warmers for on teh go. Okay I'm a bit weird, but Im just throwig idea out there for you.

[Absinthe]

Josie, I think your diapers improved greatly. They look very good. You can be proud of yourself.

Yes, it is correct, there is no anti bacterial etc. detergent, but Lysol offers a concentrate that can be added when washing the diapers. Don't know if it is color friendly. Just to point out the options here.

However, everything that is anti bacterial/microbial should be used sparely when you are on a septic system. Using too much disinfectant can cause major issues.

Also, with so much more people being a little bit more conscious about what they are throwing in their trash can and where it ends up, you do have a great chance to make some money with your idea.

A baby needs - on average - 8 diapers a day. That's ~ 2900 diapers a year that end up in a landfill. Imagine that pile. Imagine the costs...

There are biodegradable diapers, like: http://www.gdiapers.com/
Maybe you can offer pants similar to what they are using?

Bottom line... Great idea!

I agree, you should consider offering more, such as toys, blankets etc.

As for your web site.... what about: josiesbabycreations.com?

Thanks.... but there's absolutely no anti-bacterial/microbial chemicals needed to wash diapers. The soap + hot water + agitation kills the same amount of germs that ineffective chemicals will.

edit* ineffective because of longterm bullshit and short term irritation to the wearer.


However, everything that is anti bacterial/microbial should be used sparely when you are on a septic system. Using too much disinfectant can cause major issues.

It isn't just for septic systems. Using anti-germ chemicals creates resistant strains. Which creates a problem of people becoming sick - but there's no cure. Even for a bacterial infection. This is why these kinds of chemicals should only be used in hospitals, where super mega cleanliness is paramount.


There are biodegradable diapers, like: http://www.gdiapers.com/
Maybe you can offer pants similar to what they are using?

I've used g diapers. They're okay. Honestly, for cloth... a cover type diaper with snaps in four corners for a snap in liner (not a true entire diaper) would make more sense. I intend to figure out a design for that shortly.


I agree, you should consider offering more, such as toys, blankets etc.

I do make toys, loveys, blankets, etc.... but I haven't quite gotten as far as selling them. They have been for my children and friends' children.


As for your web site.... what about: josiesbabycreations.com?

I actually like that more than josiesbabystuff ... which sounds just ... bad. In my opinion.

I wanted it to sound like my personality - because that's what is represented in the things I make. Loud, colorful, different.

josiesbabystuff in a google search listing would get glossed over by me.

I'm pretty fond of "spunkysuncreations"

The CONTENT of the page will pull up key words "diapers, baby, etc."

but the name is like "well, huh? really? *click* "

_____________________________________

haha, TG, you just have it out for me cuz I said not nice things in your general direction.

What do I think? Lazy assed conservative (funny that this term goes with a wasteful mind... hahaha) men want to go with "the norm". The disposable! It's marketed that it's easier. It's marketed that it's better... well hell, buy a truckload, Barbara!

I don't mind that you aren't into cloth, but in my poll I was asking about the design. You seem to not be able to get past your wall of "cloth is the devil !".

So... I'm not really interested in your opinion any further than it's already been expressed.

example: bunnee isn't into cloth either - but she commented that the DESIGN and look of the diapers is snazzy.

That's info I want. If you can come up with a suggestion for a design revamp or change - cool. If you can't get past your asshole to see what I'm talking about, then you have no place in a cloth diapering thread.

Hey! You could make a thread about how cool disposables are if you really wanna duke it out. I'm game.

[CrAnIuM]

getting silly now.

I disagree with nearly everything you just wrote so there is no sense listing them individually.


I'll just stick to the web idea.


GOOGLE indexes differently than YAHOO or others.

A relevant URL is MUCH better than a retard name that does not get used in normal conversation.

Also, you would want to make a web name, company name that can carry over to print media in the off chance that you become successful.


But ehh .. what the hell do I know... lemme know what you select or if you even want my help.

[Josie]

Oh jeez. Stop being so emo. It is pretty closed minded of both of you not to be able to see past your thoughts about cloth diapering in general and look at my design for functionality in a cloth diapering environment.

The fact that you two can do nothing but attack cloth diapering - and not even pay mind to what I'm doing with it... is pretty lame.

Because we disagree you'll throw a fit and say you don't want to do the web deal anymore? Yeesh. Sounds a wee bit like someone's got sand panties.

I'm not going to further debate the cloth versus disposable issue, nor your inaccurate assumptions about the plight of bacterial immunity vs antibacterial agents because you can show me 100 studies to support you argument and I can find just as many that oppose it.


I still offer my assistance on the web plan.

You pick the name, I'll register it and get the ball rolling.

My opinion is unchanged about trying to find a web name that can be spoken by a human and written in a human language.

Yay. So, your opinion of the design is 8. Recommendations?


nor your inaccurate assumptions about the plight of bacterial immunity vs antibacterial agents because you can show me 100 studies to support you argument and I can find just as many that oppose it.

yes, we could have a "studies" war - but why add more chemicals into your daily life just for shits and giggles?

As far as every day life (and cloth diapering) goes - anti-bacterials/anti-biotics (triclosan is technically one)/anti-microbials are completely unnecessary, wasteful, toxic, and just more pollutants.



My opinion is unchanged about trying to find a web name that can be spoken by a human and written in a human language.

spunky = human
sun = human
creations = human

regardless. I'm going to wait a bit. Hopefully your ears won't be steaming quite as heavily and it'll give me some time to ponder a name pleasing to most.



Guh. This thread went south in a hurry. Fueled by two angry men. Who woulda thunk!






haha, i'm rizzin, you grumpy bastards.

For example: A lot of members here prefer disposables.... what are some features to disposable diapers (besides the throw away part) that you really like. That sorta info can help me adapt something to the cloth.

Ahem---I don't believe anything I said in my post would point to me having it out for you. However, keep acting the bitch and we'll see. As I stated, I do not like cloth diapers. I made an attempt as my wife was dead set on using them. She did not like them, either. On the lucky side: our kids didn't seem to "go" as much as others.

I went on to say good luck on your business venture (entrepreneurship, actually is the quote, maybe you should look it up) so I truly fail to see how I was not past my asshole, you douchebag.

Now, the only valid point you made was that of my vote. I will apologize, because I did indeed vote without understanding what was truly being polled. As a whole your diaper is a pretty cool deal. So is that full body snuggy thing the sell on t.v. but I wouldn't buy it either. You seem to assume alot of things about people you've never met. In this case it makes an Ass out of you, not me. It would seem you are unable to look past your asshole either.

I also offered advice on insuring that your not wasting your time if you did invest a lot into your product.

Way to single me out for no reason, Josie. I will make a guess that you did not fully read my post or you completely misunderstood it. My belief is you saw my s/n next to the post and immediately thought to yourself that I must be making some deprecating remarks towards your product. I'll even wager you read the post with only one thing in mind...ATTACK.

To close: Nice diapers, they have potential to go a long way if targeted to the correct groups. Know, also, that I have no intention of warring with you for any reason. Unlike you, I seem able to get past my differences with you. You can be assured that I'll not reply to your posts in the future as doing so would only be futile.

P.S. It's normally not the men who choose to use what diaper. I and all of my lazy assed conservative friends abided by the choices made by our wives.

It's pink.

Actually, since you're a home schooler - I figured you'd be down for cloth diapering. And that was way before I ever made this thread.

Yeah... I think you take me too seriously. I say a lot of bold stuff in a sort of half-believed way to get a good feisty debate going. It's a bad habit. I do it in person too :(

(that translates to.... no, I don't think you're lazy. But it is a bit closed minded to assume cloth diapering is a complete fail because you had a 2 month bad experience. the choice of diapers is a HUGE role in "how much work" goes into it. So is whether or not you use a soak bucket.)

True. This thread is not the place for rizzing and joking - as it only derails my intentions for this thread.


P.S. It's normally not the men who choose to use what diaper. I and all of my lazy assed conservative friends abided by the choices made by our wives.

what kind of diapers did you use...? kinda sounds like you went a not so great route.

I can totally see Josie empire being made out of diapers.

I am excited for your venture.

Aww! Thanks so much. So far, it's buying my groceries and paying for small coffee outings with friends and family. Sanity! :biggrin:

(OOhh! and on a sidenote, there's a new shop in town that's a coffee shop and cafe INSIDE this totally awesome play area for kids 6 and under. The mom who owns it started the whole shabang with 3 grand and is now VERY popular around town. Dude! I <3 her. Seriously. Buy coffee. Send chilluns off to play. Relax. Sip yumminess. yes yes yes)

And... thanks for reminding me. I need to get back to deciding on a name and pestering Cranium about my site :)

Not one single post about murdering babies.

I'm offended.

All of the poo handling aside, having to buy diapers every week is way too expensive for most people.

gyuh ^ !

Prego-brain is forgetful brain. I kept forgetting the same load of diapers in the wash. Over and over. And when I went back to it, I could never remember which wash they were on. So I kept re-running the cycle to make sure or... I'd think they might be mildewy. Anyhow, I ran out of clean diapers in the meantime and had an appointment to go to.

I went to buy diapers at the store. O.M.G. I tried to find like the el-cheapo generic diapers, maybe a travel pack? with some wipes for around 8 bucks.

THE cheapest pack (and smallest) was 12 dollars for a handful of diapers. The wipes? This teeny tiny little pack, maybe 2-3 inches tall was 5 bucks (also cheapest generic brand) !!

I was still in shock at that register and the cashier was like "do you buy diapers much?" I said no, that we usually clothed and I just had forgotten how spensive disposables are. She laughed, nodding.

But dude, seriously??? 17 dollars (no tax here) for a handful of butt cleaning stuff??
