Inspired by my Bibs, Burp Cloths, and Bib Bento Gift Box, I wanted to find a fun way to present other baby feeding necessities that weren’t quite as colorful as the bibs and burp cloths. So to finish out our feeding themed Baby Bentos, nothing like finding a fun way to gift bottles, brushes, and binkies than this Bottle and Binky Bento Gift Box! This bento is perfect for equipping your new mother for feeding time; from cleaning bottles afterwards to soothing a fussy hungry baby with a binky.

For this bento, I used the 9 oz. Avent Baby Bottle 4 Pack, Cleaning Brush, and Binkie Set with some extra Size 1 Diapers layered beneath for extra height and padding in the bottom of the box. It's a great use for a couple extra diapers after making diaper cakes, plus I like that even the stuffing of the bento is useful for baby! I absolutely adore the Avent Baby Bottle Sets in general and have given them as baby shower gifts several times. All the mothers I have gifted them to or even mentioned them to love these bottles and find them very useful for switching between breastfeeding and bottle feeding.

For these and other Baby Gift Box Bentos, I used a 10 inch square box to house our gifts and it was the perfect size for this Feeding Time Bento! These boxes are also great as mailable presents for if you cannot visit your mama to be but still want to send a personal and thoughtful gift. Regardless of if you are mailing or giving in person, I encourage you to stuff the top of your box with tissue paper so that items don’t move around while shipping or wrapping, plus it makes it a fun presentation removing the tissue paper to a lovely organized baby gift!

Supplies:

- Avent 9 oz Bottle 4 Pack
- Bottle Brush
- Binkie 2 Pack
- Size 1 Diapers x 10
- Gift Box

- Tissue Paper (Optional)

Starting in the upper left corner, layer your diapers to form a padding layer for your bottles, brush and binkies. The bum side of the diaper, as you may imagine, has much more padding than the tops, so I arranged them such that the tops of the diapers were layered under the bums of the last laid diaper, as shown in the photos. After placing my first couple diapers, I filled the box by arranging them counter clockwise in a spiral style pattern, with the bums over the tops of the previous diapers, until the box had about two layers of diapers with a consistent thickness of padding throughout the gift box, about 10 diapers.

2. Next, I placed the bottles in a complementary pattern on top of the diapers. Place the bottles, starting in the lower right, with the bottom of the bottle along the edge of the box with the top pointing to the opposite wall. Place the next bottle in perpendicular to the first, with the bottom still along the edge and the top of the bottle facing the side of your first bottle, as shown in the photos. Repeat this with the other two bottles, to form a baby bottle square frame on top of the diaper layer.

3. Next, tuck the bottle cleaning brush under your bottom right bottle, laying it bristle side up such that it is secured by your top bottles in a diagonal in the middle of the box.

4. Finish your bento by placing your binkie set into the open space on top of your bottle brush and your bento is ready to gift to your favorite soon to be mama!
