30 Locations and counting

We've got 30 domestic listings and 3 in Canada.

WAHOO!

It's going to be fun to see where this goes.

Stephanie from A Baby Connection and Jill from SmartyPants have donated the diaper and embroidery for our World Wide Fluffy Bum. Please recommend them to all your friends for your cloth diapering needs.

I'm working on formatting the directions so they will fit on a small enough card to travel with the diaper but still be user friendly.

Keep passing the work along and we'll watch this cloth adventure grow!

Instructions (so far...)

Serena~Awesome news about Jill @ SmartyPants. WAHOO! I also contacted Jennifer @ EmiBeans to see if she would be interested in donating a diaper. But let Jill know that we're open to whatever her WAHM friend is willing to do for our cause. I don't have any problems with the moms who donate product/service promoting their biz. I think it's fantastic.!

Okay, here's what I've got on directions so far:

"Congratulations! You're the next recipient of a cloth diaper on its adventure around the world. Although this is an All in One Bum Genius/EcoNappi diaper, for sanitary and longevity purposes please use as a cover only. The One Size diaper is designed to snap smaller or unsnap for larger babies as needed. We've got a great blog going about where the diaper has been so far so enjoy your three day visit!

Included in this package:
Diaper, Instruction Sheet, Atlas

Before use:
The mama before you should have prepped the diaper but if you feel the need to wash/dry again, please see the directions under "After use".

During use;
Please document what you're doing. Take pics, jot down some ideas, be creative. We'd love to see it.

After use:
Please wash and dry in a cloth diaper friendly solution. (Detergent should have no perfumes, dyes, brighteners. Then hang dry to prevent velcro chains and get in some sun brightening).
Contact Hally via email to receive the address for the next mama in The Adventure. You are responsible for mailing the diaper USPS to the next mama, along with the instruction card & atlas.'

Diaper donated by *****, Embroidery donated by Smarty Pants on Hyena Cart. Contact Hally with questions and to post your diaper journal via email :
globalfluffybum@gmail.com or the blog site http://globalfluffybum08.blogspot.com

A list of ideas?

Hi Mamas,
Here's the blog. It's pretty sparse, but not for long! We'll add tons of pics, links and fun stuff as we go. I'd like to start by asking you all for ideas on what to include with the diaper's package. I was thinking we can set up the map on Blogger to show where the diaper has been, but if you'd like to still include an atlas we can do that too? I'm going to format some basic instructions and laminate it on a small card. Leave a comment on anything you'd like to include!
