Spring means baby boom!

Ok it is no secret I love to make silly little things in my spare time, I can turn junk into something nice, ok well I try to it does not always work. I just love being crafty and will try anything once!
I have always loved the idea of diaper cakes and a friend of mine had a baby recently so I thought I would give it a go and make one.
My friend is a simple person, dislikes clutter and the over board decorating so I made something very simple, I hung little booties from it and in the package was baby shampoo, bubble bath and lotions on the reverse side I put in a little something for the mother also, some face masks and relaxation oils, the diaper cake had close to 100 diapers in it and they LOVED IT!!!
Diaper cakes are not big here, truth is I have never seen it sold or advertised anywhere, maybe I could make a jump on the market ? ;-)

Here is the cake itself!!

This is really cute and thoughtful! Did you make the booties too? I can only knit scarves but really need to learn to knit other stuff!

I am sure your friend appreciated it very much!

What a great idea! I've never seen one like that before. It's a great idea for the next shower I go to.

I especially like that you included something for Mom in there.

This is something interesting and really unique. Most of all, the thought and attention going into making this diaper cake - that is priceless!
