Everyone knows just how adorable and snuggly babies are, not to mention completely lovable!  Just talking about babies makes me swoon just a little (okay, I’m swooning a lot).  But I also know just how hard it is to make sure babies have everything they need, and one of the biggies is the insane amount of diapers needed to get a baby through their first year.  That’s what makes this baby diaper cake such a fantastic baby shower gift idea.  It’s both adorable and functional, which will win the day every time!

I will show you just how easy putting together a diaper cake truly is…come take a look!

Baby Diaper Cake:

This diaper cake was so fun to put together because I did it for my little niece and nephew (twins) so it was double the fun!!  You can adjust the color scheme to whatever your needs are, you can even do a gender neutral cake if the gender is remaining a surprise!

Diaper Cake Instructions:

Possible Supplies:

• *Diapers (about 120 diapers, I used one box of diapers for this cake)
• Diaper Cream
• Baby Powder
• Baby Lotion
• Toys
• Stuffed Animals
• Pacifiers
• Brush
• Comb
• Socks
• Clothes
• Blankets
• Hair Bows
• Gift Card
• *Ribbon
• *Rubber bands

You will not need all of these supplies, you can decide how much you want to add to your cake.

*These are the items you will need to complete the diaper cake.

How to Make a Baby Diaper Cake:

• Roll the diapers and wrap them with a rubber band.
• Start to build your layers by standing your rolled diapers in the center of a circle and working your way out.  If you need to use rubber bands to help hold the shape you can place a large rubber band around the whole circle.  When you have your circle complete, wrap it with the ribbon, securing it together.

• Once you have completed the bottom layer, repeat this process for the next 2 layers.  I used about 20 less diapers per layer.

• Stack each layer on top of each other creating a three layered cake.  Once you have the basic cake done, it’s time to add the decorations.  Place your items on the cake where they best fit.  If you have items that can stick in between the diapers, that will help hold them securely.  I used packing tape to help hold items in place, but be careful not to stick the tape to the diapers so they can still be used.

It’s that simple, such a fun and easy gift to give.  Isn’t it so adorable?!

Have FUN making your baby diaper cake!!

In my world there is nothing better than a newborn baby!!  Seriously just typing this makes me swoon big time.  I can hardly contain my excitement when someone I know is expecting, knowing there will be gifts to buy and babies to snuggle.  Because I know how many diapers a new mom will be going through in that first year, I usually try to include diapers in all of the new baby gift baskets I put together.  What’s super fun and creative about this gift basket idea is that the basket itself is made with diapers.  Such a perfect baby shower gift!

New Baby Gift Baskets:

My “baby” is nine, but I remember the baby years like they were yesterday (do I sound old right now?)! They were wonderful years full of snuggles, sleep deprivation, and laughs.  I learned very quickly to keep a sense of humor, or I would spend many of my days in tears.  I remember one day waking up after only getting a few hours of sleep to a crying baby.  He needed to be fed and changed, which I expected, but what I did not expect is being out of diapers.  6am, no diapers, a crying infant, and a tired momma….yep, I needed a sense of humor!

I didn’t know about Sam’s Club and how easily I could have stocked up on diapers.  They make it even easier now with Sam’s Scan & Go app, where you can scan your items while you shop and skip the check out. Maybe avoiding the 6am crisis of having no diapers!

How fun is this new baby gift basket?  It is super easy to put together and makes such a fun gift to give.

Baby Shower Gift Basket:

Here’s how to make it.

Shopping List:

• Photo box (or any box you want to use)
• Scotch Tape
• Diapers (Pampers or Luvs)
• Ribbon
• Tag (available to print below)
• Pampers wipes
• Baby Powder
• Diaper rash cream
• Lotion
• Baby toys
• Stuffed animals

How to Make:

• Roll your diapers starting at the bottom.

• Take the rolled diaper and tape around it with the adhesive side of the tape facing away from the diaper.  Place the tape in the center of the diaper.

• Once taped, place the rolled diaper on the outside corner of the box.  Repeat this until the entire outside of the box is lined with diapers.

• Wrap your ribbon around the box using the tape that is already on the diapers to keep it in place.
• Print the tag (see below).
• Fill the box with the fun baby gifts.

Here are some fun tags for you to use.  Just right click and save to your computer, then open in a program like Word or Pages and size how you want. Or, I have a PDF with several of each version ready for you to print.
