Diaper Cake

On Saturday our care group is having a diaper shower for Stephaine one of the girls in our group. My friend Erin is in charge of the shower and decided that since it was a diaper shower what would be better than having a diaper cake as our gift/decoration. Today after I dropped Sawyer off at school I headed to her house and we began consrtuction of the "diaper cake" We started out at Hobby Lobby ( it's like michaels, for all you readers in San Diego) There we found the cutest ribbon for the cake. It is white ribbon with brown and lime green stars. After we left Hobby Lobby we went back to her house.We spent the first few minutes rollling diapers and placing them in cake tier formations. They are held together with rubber bands, and baby bottles filled with candy to keep them stable. While Erin was putting the diapers in the tiers, I was making chocolate stars for decoration. After about an hour of work,we had created the cutest diaper cake ever....picture below. We are so excited to give it to Stephanie on Saturday. Here are some pictures of the process. I know some of them are turned the wrong way, I have no idea how to fix that. hopefully when Paul gets home he can show me how.


Here is the cake before any decorations, or ribbons were put on.
