The birth of a new person - triumph, joy, tenderness! How I want to congratulate loved ones on this event in a beautiful and original way! A wonderful cake made of baby diapers, made by yourself, will not leave indifferent any happy mom. And an amazing combination of benefits and beauty will surely appeal to even the most practical parents.
Making a diaper cake is not at all difficult. In addition, its cost is quite suitable for any wallet. What do we need to create a cake?
1. Diapers. On a two-tier cake you need about 30-40 pieces. It is advisable to buy not the smallest size (for example, from 7 kg and above), since often a gift touches parents so much that they are in no hurry to disassemble it right away.
2. Sterile disposable diaper, gloves. Diapers for a baby are a matter of personal hygiene, therefore, observing cleanliness and sterility when creating a cake from them is an indispensable condition. It is also advisable to wipe all the elements of the gift (fasteners, decor) with an antiseptic solution or iron with an iron so that nothing threatens the baby's delicate skin.
3. Mounts. The choice of mounts is huge. Ropes, tape, safe baby pins, rubber bands, glue. But, nevertheless, it is recommended to make a special emphasis on safety and naturalness - after all, a gift for a baby. Therefore, we use only fabric or paper ropes, satin ribbons and sewing threads. With them, the creation process will be a little longer, but the quality of our confectionery miracle will be on top.
4. Material for a vertical base. Here it’s suitable: a tall bottle of any children's cosmetics, a bottle, a cardboard roll of paper towels, wooden skewers, a bottle of champagne, finally. As for the latter, personally, we have doubts: already, alcohol does not fit in any way with the image of a gentle children's gift. But, the choice is yours.
5. Satin ribbons of different widths, threads, needles, decorative paper napkins or fabric. We leave the color scheme completely to your taste. You know better in what style and color to make a cake to arouse admiration of your relatives.
6. Decor elements. Cute plush toys, fabric flowers, beads, beads, baby paraphernalia: combs, teethers, socks, booties, diapers, nipples. Believe me, mom will be glad of every detail of the gift - everything will come in handy in infant life.
7. Stand. A tray can be a beautifully pasted sheet of cardboard, the bottom of the box from a real cake. In our case, the stand is also a useful gift - a children's book.
So, let's begin.

On a sterile napkin, open the packaging of diapers (20 pcs.). Do not disconnect them, just stack them, as shown in the photo.

Slightly bending, uniformly give shape around the base - the bottle, pull the rope.

We form the second similar tier (16 pcs.). Between the tiers you can put a lacy napkin.

Cake is baked.

Next, we put satin ribbons on top of the ropes in the order that you like (thin - on the wide, both - side by side). We fix them with threads (photo6), or with glue (of course, without touching the diapers). Now it's up to the decoration. We make cute bows and sew them a little to the right of the seam on the ribbon to hide it behind the bow curve. A little teddy bear will complement the picture.
