Twin Pink with Brown Polka Dot Diaper Cakes
These diaper cakes were made with Huggies size 1 diapers.
(I like to use size 1, cuz mom usually gets too many newborn diapers at babyshower)This gives mom time to enjoy the diapercake at home for decoration until it is time to take apart.
I start off by rolling all the diapers with small clear rubberbands. I use an 8oz bottle and put a large rubberband around the bottle and insert the rolled up diapers in the middle to hold the diapers in place. The top tier has 7 diapers and the bottom tier @ 20.
Since it is held with rubberbands I use ribbon to decorate and to cover the rubberbands.
Diapercake 1 ingredients
comb/brush
3 washcloths
pacifier/ do not open package/let mom do that.
"I love Mommy" bib
1 pair of pink mittens
1 pair of white mittens
I used pink mittens on the outside and put white mittens on inside and just twisted them and used tiny rubberband to hold together and they look like little flowers. Which is on the I love mommy bib, and stuck them under the top tier.
I also did not open pacifier, You want mom to open and sterilize for baby. So I kept in package and glued some ribbon onto package to make it look nice.
Diaper cake 2 ingredients
3 washcloths
1 pink/white key teether
3 pair of socks
Socks I tied together with string of beads. I did not use anything else, so that I would not damage socks
After I am done with the Diaper Cakes I use a cardboard and cut it round, probably @ 1 1/2" bigger and cover with tissue paper and I then cut up lots of squares and twist the squares to make them cute and glue to covered cardboard to decorate around the bottom of cake.
