Look what I made for a Baby Shower...My first try at it.

Here is a pic of the diaper cake. It's a tad off as there were a few kids that pulled off the Bunny but I tried to put him back on... Oh, and that's the album I made. I also took a lot of pics for her. Our family also had $200 worth of gifts from Me, DH, DB, DSIL, Mom and Dad...She was thrilled.

I did 3 layers, and it took 80 diapers, size 2, and 3 meters (yards) of large ribbon. I tied the layers with white curly ribbon so about 10 years of that and I rolled the diapers and used 2 small invisable hair elastics to hold each one. It was nice not to have to tie each one with ribbon...

Got the idea from a poster on the Dis CB board...I loved making it.

Tell me what you think...

Very cute ...The diapers are not rolled, is it hard to get them to stay together to tie them?

Also, what kind of diapers? I was looking for all white one.

I use huggies size 1 diapers

to put them together I scotch tape them in groups of 5 at the waist end....then I arrange them in a circle with the waist en in the center & use colored yarn to tie the big circle together

the first few times it took me awhile, but I got a system now & it only takes me an hour to put it all together. It takes some time

I once made one that someone thought was a real cake
