The reason for wanting to make a cover for your baby seat or capsule is obviously because you want a comfier and more vibrant place for your baby to sit, but there is also the joy of knowing you created it yourself. I wont say it will save you money, because by the time you buy everything you need it will be around the same if not more than a new baby car seat cover, but that is not the point. So how do you go about making one then?

Visit your local craft store and buy all the materials you need to make the seat covers. This will help you save money and also ensure that your baby has a comfortable car seat. You can make beautiful covers for the light weight stroller and give a beautiful appearance when your baby is sitting inside. Here are some steps to help you in making the car seat covers:

The first thing you need to do is choose what type of fabric you are going to use. Each has its advantages and disadvantages but I would recommend cotton as it breathes the easiest and is the most comfortable for your child. Once you decide on the fabric, you then get too choose what color and pattern you want

You should remove all the seams on the old car seat. This will allow you to get pattern which you can use in your car. When sewing, make sure that all edges align. This will give you good results and make a perfect seat cover.

Make sure you sew the edges perfectly and cut off any excess fabric from the seams. Before you then use your sewing machine, make sure that all the pins have been removed and again confirm that you are sewing in the right place and on the right side! Believe me, even the best of us make this mistake from time to time!

You can also add an extra bit of pizzazz and flair to your baby car seat by sewing some ribbon along the seams, or adding a new layer of fabric to the edges to give it that extra little something. The sky is the limit here, I mean this is why we are making our own baby car seat right?

It’s optional, but can make the sear covers look beautiful. All these will ensure that your baby can ride in the car comfortably with you, as well as now enjoying the beautiful surround of a vibrant and fun car seat cover that everyone will enjoy.
