Bum Genius conversion to snaps!

I have converted now almost 1/6 of our Bum Genius diapers from velcro to snaps! The process has not been without mishaps, but all in all, I'm thrilled with it. The snaps I ordered from KAMsnaps match the colors of the diapers perfectly, and the pliers and awl work great for getting the snaps on. I'm happy with it, and so far, it's well worth the money. Here are a few pictures:

After nearly a year and a half of constant use, the velcro on our Bum Genius one-size pocket diapers was SHOT! The dipes themselves are in great shape, and still work amazingly well (aside from being nearly outgrown by our super tall son!). We had to do something about this, or they'd never last through Orren and the next baby.

And finally, the finished product! Snaps!!
