I made this baby diaper cake for a co-worker having a girl. I used useful items like washcloths, hats, socks, and mitts. She loved it! The monkey on top is a wrist toy that rattles when the baby moves her hand.
My girlfriend chose a monkey theme for her nursery using bright lime green and flourescent orange. I used that same theme for her diaper cake. The most fun for me was the hunt for the perfect monkey items!
This is my first diaper cake. I used alot of browns and greens like frogs and monkeys...it was a big hit and alot easier than I thought it would be! Thanks, I love the site!
These diapers are candle rolled, secured around a central support system and then decorated with matching jungle items. 
My sister asked me to do a baby shower for her friend who didn't have much family. So fo course I said yes.. She decided on a safari theme and I have to say I went a little nuts.... The invitations I got for a baby shower site. The cake on the other hand was all my idea... I got a little nuts with it ending up being over 250 size 1 diapers!! But I have to say it was al worth it. The only hot glue used was on the bottom of the wipes container that was the anchor to the whole piece. The tree is bottles with diapers wrapped around it, the tree leaves are onsies, the waterfall is a blue onsie and the green patches the animals are sitting on are tshirts. I loved making the monkey hang from the tree. All the ribbon is secured with double stick tape and tied in a bow in the back. I try to make my cakes as usable as possible. I had hidden in the cake travel baby powder, boo boo ice packs,travel shampoo and lotion. This was a huge hit as the center peice of her shower. We also played the games.. tinkle in the pot(hilarious!!), stinky diaper, the candy bar game,animal baby/momma game and the My water broke game... Everyone loved the games and the safari treats that I made. I had safari animal shaped sugars for coffee and tea, we had safari punch, and I made rice krispie treats in the shape of lions, monkeys,elephants and hippos. It was alot of work but,I have to say it was all worth it in the end.

I made this diaper cake for my neighbor baby shower. This was the second diaper cake I've made. This time I used a soft blanket wrapped around a paper towel roll for the center post. I also tried something different by layering the bottom diapers on top of each other instead. It turned out pretty cute I think. I tried to find a "Blues Clues" rattle to match the diapers but couldn't find one. That's ok because my favorite part is the monkey that giggles when you tickle his toes. I got a bear just like it from my friend Nisha for my son and he loves it! I was excited when I found them at Wal-mart for under $10.

Just wanted to share with you the diaper cake that a friend and I made for our friend's baby shower this weekend. BOY was it nice to have another set of hands to help with it!!! (Highly recommended to all those wanting to try to make one) It went over famously and all the ladies couldn't believe we MADE it ourselves! lol Thanks for having this website available. :)

I am now hooked on making diaper cakes! Here is my second one, done in a mod mom theme. This cake consists of 100+ Huggies size 1 diapers.

I rolled up each diaper and secured them with rubber bands. Then I secured each layer with rubber bands. After I got the layers the size I wanted I pulled a few diapers out and replaced them with gifts like travel size lotions, powder, shampoo, burp cloths, onsies and bottles. I wrapped each layer twice around with plain white tulle. I glued on the dots then added the ribbons and decorated the outside of the cake.

I used swaddlers pamper size one diapers. I layed out a long piece of painters tape (so the diapers would still be useable) sticky side up on a table and layed diapers horizontally on the tape overlapping them. Then simply rolled it up. I then used smaller pieces of tape for the top layers. I then wrapped each layer in ribbon and secured it with a glue gun. Then wrapped again with the smaller ribbon. I placed a round wooden dowel down the center to keep them centered. I used straight pins to secure the stuffed animal and shoes and scotch tape for everything else. I made sure evything I used to make it and added to it would be useable afterwards. The topper was actually one of the party favor we gave to guests.

After looking at your gallery of diaper cakes I said to myself, "I could do that"! I am planning a baby shower for my daughter who is expecting in May. I'm sending a picture of my creation! And the little baby carriages filled with silk flowers cost a whopping $2.00 a piece to make!
