There used to be one on simplicity.com for free under their classroom. I can't find it now though...They may have taken it down. Maybe a Google search.
Dear Ginger, I have been using the same 'baby wipes' box for years now. What I did was to decoupage printed fabric onto the plastic box, then I used a water-based sealer to protect it. It is best if you use 3+ coats of sealer as the box will be touched so often. Then I simply buy refill packages and put them into the original box. I actually don't have children but have a doggie that I groom several times a day and found that baby wipes were so much more economical to use than the puppy wipes. Hope this helps, Lisa
here is the homemde cover for a baby wipe case from simplicity.com
You will need:
1/2 yard of fabric, such as cotton, flannel or broadcloth

Sewing Instructions:
1. Place the lining rectangle with the WRONG side up. Center fleece over the lining, leaving 1/2" excess showing from underneath all edges of fleece.
8. Sew or fuse the appliqué on the flap as shown.
I always preferred a ziploc bag. Not pretty, but very functional and it would fit into all tiny and odd spaces and the wipes did not dry out.
I got the pattern from Simplicity.com just recently under free projects. They are very easy to make. I have made several for new great-great neices and great-great nephews. My daughter has an order in for my new granddaughter and I have an order from a great-great neice for the first 3 great baby. They all love them.
I modpodged assorted pictures from sewing catalogs onto an empty baby wipes container and sealed it after it was dry with polyurethane. Then used it to hold some miscellaneous sewing supplies.
