Tutorial: Make baby carrier strap covers to catch the drool

Little babies will put just about anything into their mouths, which means that anything that is around baby for any length of time stands a good chance of getting slobbered. Kristin from Lu Bird Baby created these strap covers to keep the straps of her Ergo baby carrier from being covered with baby drool. Instead of having to wash her entire carrier, she can just remove the strap covers and wash them. Brilliant!! She shares a tutorial on her blog showing how to make them. Get the tute.
