Supplies:
Empty box (I used a diaper box)
Burlap
Hot glue gun
Ribbon for trim
Any kind of thick-ish ribbon and of course a label. I made my label with scrap paper and leftover ribbon. 
Measure the burlap to fit each side (4 pieces). Even though you are going to cover the seams with ribbon, you want to make sure the burlap overlaps a bit. I did go through about 6 glue sticks, so be prepared for that. I used a lot of glue to ensure that the burlap was secure to the box. And is it ever secure.
One little hint - use a lighter box or a darker burlap. The flash on the camera shows you that the burlap is a little transparent. No big deal for me since it is going in a closet, but if you have your box out in the open you might want to make sure you can't see through it.

You are brilliant! I love this and I have lots of empty diaper boxes.
This is very creative and oh how I wish I say this just a few months ago - with twins we were going through a ton of diapers! Thanks for linking up to Be Inspired today!

Oh so clever. I love burlap and have plenty of diaper boxes (for now). Great idea...these would be fab for my closet too.
Holly Smokes - thats awesome!!
We all have those big diaper boxes!
Great job.
Gotta go get some burlap!
this is great! we actually keep the dog's toys in an old diaper box, but it's not decorated...maybe it's time to cover up the "pampers" ha!
