momma and baby giraffes diaper animals

I rolled diapers into arms, legs, necks and bodies and held them together with various sizes of plastic hair bands. Altogether I used 22 diapers, 7 socks, 3 bibs, 4 headbands, 1 pacifier and 2 pairs of butterfly hair clips.

The Lady I gave them to was so thrilled, she said she hoped she wouldn't become so desperate that she had to take it apart and use them. She says they make a great decoration for her daughter's room.

baby diaper monkey with pacifier holding monkey stuffed animal
When I started making this cake, I was originally attempting to make a monkey cake... which ended up not working out so well. I pretty much just followed the monkey instructions, omitting the tail of course. Then I outfitted the baby in coordinating onesie, bib and pacifier. For ears, eyes and nose, I used double stick tape, and used a bit of blush for the rosy cheeks.

I made this diaper monkey for my daughter by rolling diapers and constructing them together in a shape of a monkey. My daughter loves Monkeys and this is her favorite.

I made my daughter-in-law a diaper cake, set of giraffes, set of elephants, a lion, a turtle (not shown), 2 boo boo bunnies, a sock corsage, and a diaper wreath (not shown) for her baby shower. Everyone just loved them and had not seen anything like them before. Now they are asking me to make them for them too!!

girl noahs ark diaper animals

I made this Noah's ark themed diaper animal gift for my daughter's first baby. I made 2 giraffes, 2 elephants, and 2 snakes out of diapers and baby items. I placed them in a wicker basket. To make it look like an ark, I covered a Kandoo diaper wipe case with a baby hat. It was so cute!

colorful diaper butterflies

Hello! My name is Wendy and I am a stay at home Mommy of two children. I was looking at the washcloth lollipop instructions on here, and would like to share mine with you. I sell on eBay, through my website, and locally in a store and have made over 4,000 of them. I use no pins, tape, needles, or glue on the washcloths. I do also make candies, candy rolls, diaper cakes, cupcakes and many other items if you would like these shared as well. Thank you so much!

Tell us about your diaper craft! We would love to hear all about it...

Who did you make it for? myself and my friends

Was there a theme or style you followed? yes, "Got Milk?"

How many diapers did you use in your cake? Approximately 12

What were the ingredients? Diapers, washcloths, socks, pacifiers, baby bottle nipples,etc.

How did you make it? Rolling 3 small cylinder rolled diapers inside one bigger open diaper. Then folding and manipulating it to look like legs. I then placed them side by side and wrapped another diaper around them to keep them together. From there, I rolled another diaper long ways for the head. As you can see, there are bottle nipples for the horns.

Anything else you would like to share with us about your diaper cake or the occasion? This one works great for a lot of themes... Got Milk?, Happy Mutter's Day, You're Moorvelous...etc.

A receiving blanket over the top and hangs down. A washcloth as a beck, a bib that hangs down (i used blue for a boy) and a pair of socks for his ears. I added flowers for the center of his eyes. Tied with ribbons.
