Diaper cakes are becoming extremely popular for gifts for the new moms. The only problem is most of them are extremely expensive, with some running as much as $200 or more.
While I like my friends, I can't afford to spend that much on one gift for them. So I searched and found several different tutorials for how to make a diaper cake. Each one is slightly different, and you can mix and match ideas to make the perfect cake for you.
If you are looking for inspiration be sure to check out this
diaper cake gallery. There's really not a wrong way to make one, so get creative and make one that you and the recipient will enjoy! You can also use tulle or other material to wrap your cakes in. Look around and see what you have around the house. The most important part, however, is to have fun!
When doing these - here’s what worked best for us - rolling the diapers and securing with a clear tiny hair elastic that you can usually pick up at CVS. Although I remember a few times cursing at the things at 3am when I was trying to change a diaper.
