Do it yourself...Diaper Cake

I make diaper cakes for my local customers, because there are challenges to shipping them.  When you look for them online, you are faced with some pretty hefty prices.   I've seem some that reach up to about $170 due to the costs of shipping such a fragile gift.  Well, if you desire a diaper cake for a baby shower or new mom gift, make it yourself.  All you need is a few supplies and a whole lot of patience.  Ready?

Step One:  Watch this video with Jessica Bailey - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ox5Hv-0fhA.  She goes through a pretty simple way to make one.  She lists all of the items you need.
 
Step Two: Once your diapers are stacked, it becomes all about the design.  Here are some of my design kits that you may purchase to help with the decorating.

Making Your Own Diaper Cake -  Order Our Themed Decorations for a 2 or 3 tiered cake. Glue dots are included. See Suggested Layout in Example. 

Step Three:  Be Creative! ​Be sure to add your ribbons and some baby items to make it even more appealing to the eye.  You can use baby blankets, clothing, shoes, toys, and toiletries. My examples below are quite conservative.  Don't be afraid to step outside the box with your own design!

Very Important!  Do not do anything in your design to damage the diapers.  It is imperative that the diapers are part of the gift and remain usable.  New moms will love that they can slice away at the cake as they take the diapers away one diaper change at a time.   I wrap all of my gifts in a large gift bag for protection. 

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.  Happy Designing!
