Hospital/NICU prop help?

I’m doing a set of NICU twins with a hospital display but I’m having a heck of a time finding hospital props. Clothing, bands, hats, and blankets are easy. But I’m trying to find clear plastic bins that can stand in for a hospital bassinet/isolette and things that would look like the kind of tubes and things you’d see on NICU babies. Anybody know where I can get these things? Or alternatively make them myself.

Clear storage tub from Walmart? Kinda looks like a hospital bassinet. You could flip one upside down cut holes and attack dish gloves :crazy_face: if you want to be extreme nice. Or cut circles and make little doors… I think just a tub as a bassinet would work

dollsbysandie.com has the nasal cannula and oxygen masks. Try the dollar store and Walmart for clear plastic bins.

That might be to extreme for sure… maybe attaching dish nice gloves that don’t attack

You could probably get clear tubing from Lowe’s or Home Depot.

Here are some ideas. The one that I showed looks like they don’t have them right now.

Look what I found. It looks perfect! And it has a lid. It may work!

There are lots of other sizes

That site makes you order in multiples for most of their stuff

That one doesn’t though :slight_smile:
