Baby Shower And Diaper Cakes

Well this is what I have been up to on my lazy Sunday. Making a diaper cake for an upcoming baby shower, OH's sister is having her first baby. Now she is waiting till the birth to find out what, a boy or a girl. So I have to complain here and say it is so hard to find neutral baby stuff. Nothing matched themes or they were out of everything. So needless to say I kind of cheated and added all of the baby colors!

Now that I have ranted and raved about unisex outfits onto the photos. This cake used just over 100 diapers, all rolled and then I added in baby socks and towels as flowers. Plus I stashed some cute little surprises inside the cake. I kind of cheated and used some circular boxes in the middle to make a four layer cake!





If your interested in making you own head over to U tube and google Diaper cakes there are a ton of examples and a couple of great tutorials. Until next time!

Hey swap buddy - I got your package in the mail on Monday, but didn't tell you because I thought the other box would be here yesterday or today, but it wasn't. I got the priority box, so the other one is the white one?

Wow - everything in that box was so fabulous. LOVED the ice tray filled with exuberant trinkets, and everything was just awesome. Thank you SO much. I couldn't have had a better partner for this swap.

I'm going to post to my blog when I get the other box, but wanted to let you know. Don't see a post on here about what I sent you (hint hint). Hmmm, she did say it would take some time.

By the way, love your diaper cake.

Creatively,
Kimberly

Your diaper cake looks great. I made my first towel cake for my friends bridal shower in June. Everyone loved it and thought it was real at first glance!
