A new craft

I made my first diaper cake a few days ago. It was fun, easy, and turned out pretty cute for a first attempt. Below is the first layer. I cut a round piece of cardboard out and covered it in Tinfoil. Then put a box of wipes on the base, surrounded it with two cloth diapers that were embellished with fabric (to be used as burp clothes) and stuffed it with rolled diapers. For the second layer I started with some baby lotion, and then wrapped the rolled diapers around it. The outermost layer is wrapped in coordinating polkadot and "it's a boy" ribbon. All tied together with a tiny piece of white string that's hidden behind the ribbon.

Top layer is composed of a couple bottles, diaper ointment and babywash all wrapped in another embellished cloth diaper/burp cloth and wrapped with ribbon.


And to finish it all off, the best bib ever bunched together and popping off the top.
Cute, right?
