Diaper cake...

Does anyone know how to make this? I am giving my sister a baby shower in 3 weeks, and I am thinking of making one. Do you have directions how to do it? Thanks in advance!

I've never done it before, but here's a website with some instructions.

My friend just rolled up diapers, so they look like cylinders, secured them with a rubber band....stood them up and made them into a large circle. THen she took a receiving blanket, folded it, and secured it around the diapers with pins. Took some decorative trim from a craft store and put it around the blanket. She did this for all the layers of the cake. Then you can just add little booties or rattles here and there.

Good luck.

I used disposable diapers, and folded them in half and used dental floss (if you use mint, it smells nice..fyi! ) to keep them in place, you can alternate how many are on each "layer of the cake" - usually I will use either a receiving blanket (or if its a cheaper version! - A ROLL OF PAPER TOWELS!) to keep the form.....

then I use curly ribbon to decorate the entire cake and also to tie on other baby things (pacifiers, rattles, baby lotion, shampoo, etc)
