Diaper Cake

Hi all!
I'm trying to get better at blogging. This summer just flew by and I just got out of the habit :)
Anyway, I wanted to share the diaper cake I made for my Sister-in-laws shower back in August.

I used cake board for the bases on the tiers. The diapers are held together with white rope and then there are three layers of ribbon around each tier. I cut the bottles and rattles that are spaced around each tier from New Arrival. The flowers are some bundles I found at Hobby Lobby taken off the stems and secured with "high tech"Scotch Tape. The tape is covered up with shredded cotton balls. I used the stork from New Arrival for the cake topper and put some cotton balls around the base of him.
I'm just so proud of how this came out! I wanted to keep it for myself...LOL!
Thanks for stopping by!

  11. This is one AWESOME CAKE! I am going to "Diaper Lift it" from you-if you don't mind:)I was wondering, do you have any "CLOSER UP" pictures of the cake-like of the ribbon? I am curious about how it looks from close up. And did you just lay the cotton balls on top or did you tape them down too with the Schotch tape? If you could help me that would be greatly appreciated:)
    Thanks,

  12. I am not a big fan of diaper cakes. Most of the ones I've seen are so tacky, tasteless, sloppy and just poorly done.

    I have to say though, that yours is very, very nice. I liked the classy color theme that you used, the balanced proportions and symmetry of your design, the clean and neat look - it all comes together to make a stylish and tasteful version for sure!

    Awesome job!
