Baby Diaper Cake!

The first of my girlfriends is expecting early September! (Hi Baby Aiden!) I always wanted to make baby gifts special, but given that I cannot knit, a blanket was out of the question! What I can do is roll up diapers and make a cake out of!

Mommy-to-be loved it and I was surprised to be the only one to bring one!

There is a great tutorial on YouTube on how to do this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4q-YE0sn3Mw&feature=related


It's actually super fun too!  What I used:

- 92 pack of Pampers Sawddlers
- 3 large rubber bands
- 92 small rubber bands for each diaper
- Baby shampoo (for center support of cake)
- Baby power (for center support of cake)
- Baby body wash (for center support of cake)
- Stuffed animal for "cake topper"
- Ribbon in two complimentary shades, 2" and 1" in width
- Small items from registry such as pacifiers, socks, rattles, etc to decorate around the cake
