Carriegsxr6 Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 I decided to make one large one for the center piece of the gift table, and then decided to do a few more for center pieces on the other tables. My friend is doing the baby nursery in red and blue with a vintage baseball theme. So when I saw this fabric, I got so excited and bought a couple yards of each, even at $7.99 a yard. Ouch. I also found these vintage glass baby milk bottles that I snatched up a few months ago, and realized they would be perfect to fill with soy wax and place them on top of the cakes. Scented vanilla.

jldorrington Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 i used size 1's for the top and middle teir on mine and sizes twos for the bottom teir... mommy has already gotten 5 packs of newborns so i figured that would be pointless lol. really you can use any size diaper some people use three different izes so that the cake will slowly get dismantled instead of the whole thing getting torn apart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carriegsxr6 Posted April 26, 2007 Author Share Posted April 26, 2007 I agree, the dang diapers were the hardest part. It was fun attaching all the items. For the middle part, I used an empty paper towel roll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cabin Creek Candles Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 WOW I bet those are very time consuming, however they look very cluttered, too busy. KWIM? I've never seen a DC with so much stuff on it. Too much of something can be bad. JMO of course! The middle layer on the bottom DC appears to be uneven. With that being said, your friend will appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cetacea Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 I don't get it. mommy has already gotten 5 packs of newborns so i figured that would be pointless lol. LOL, that's not nearly enough....she could use a lot more. LMAO. Trust me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ring of Fire Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 That has got to be the hardest thing I've ever had to look at. I have seen some awesome diaper cakes. I can give you the links if you'd like to see how they should look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michi Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Is the material big enough to be reused for something in the bedroom, or is it just for the cake? I hope it can be utilized somehow, otherwise that is such a waste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debscent Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 I've never seen a diaper cake before (I know, how is that possible). Very interesting concept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it can be utilized somehow, otherwise that is such a waste.I just gave her these cakes over the weekend, and she was already thinking of ways to utilize the fabric. So I would say, yes, they can be used for something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
