Creative decorating ideas needed!

There is a neighborhood that goes all out in town for Christmas. The police shut down the roads and it's only open to pedestrians and carriages.

My friend is offering her lawn for me to decoration for a local non-profit diaper bank that provides diapers to babies who need them.

She would prefer something non-denominational since she's Jewish. In the past they've done Peace decorations in various languages, make-your-own origami paper cranes, etc. So holiday, winter, etc. is ok, just not overt Christmas images.

I'm lacking in the creativity department....what do you think would be cute for decorations? Obviously we'll have a sign, lights... The most common image we use is babies in diapers...any cute ideas?

  • Snowflakes sound like they could work. Not sure how to work it in with the diaper babies...

  • Can you do an outline of baby footprints with lights? Baby items like a rattle or pacifier?

  • My sister lives in that neighborhood. Her house is kind of boring though...she isn't very adventurous in her holiday decor.lol

    I enjoy the displays that are clever...maybe a bit of thoughtful humor. That said, I'm not coming up with anything brilliant off the top of my head, but I'll keep thinking.

    For some reason, I keep thinking of something kind of like this, except with babies wearing diapers.

    You could make every snowflake different, and have them mounted on posts like this

     at different heights, (or hanging if they have big trees...or both), to look like the snow is falling.  The fence posts are available in different heights and are pretty inexpensive.
