Most of you who read my blog know that recently my youngest was potty trained, so now for the first time in 15 years (Yikes, that’s a long time!)…no one is in diapers around our house! During that time I’ve been through a lot of diapers, brands & sizes! I’m kind of an expert on diapers now! ha! The diaper I always recommend & loved to use for my babies are the Huggies brand diapers. I think Huggies are the cutest diapers, too…just adorable! Huggies were always great at keeping my babies clean & dry, This helped prevent diaper rash which was a huge help. I always recommend them to my friends who are having babies. They are also great to give as gift for new moms & babies. I know when I was expecting the first thing I always asked for was diapers! My sister, Abby just had her very first baby this past week. His name is Owen, & he is adorable! I can’t wait to hold him! In a couple of weeks I’ll be headed down to Texas to meet him, and I knew just what to bring him~ some Huggies Diapers! Today I’d love to share how I made this cute & easy diaper cake for baby Owen. {I was inspired by this diaper cake tutorial I found on Pinterest.}
First I headed to Walmart to pick up some Huggies Snug & Dry diapers.
Walmart now has Rollback prices on all their Huggies diapers.
It’s a perfect time to stock up!
For this diaper cake you’ll need:
63 Huggies Snug & Dry diapers
an empty paper towel roll,
small & large rubber bands
ribbon & tulle
Huggies plastic wipes case
vinyl lettering
First you’ll roll your diapers up loose end to folded end.
Then use a tiny rubber band to hold it in place.
You’ll do this 63 times, so soon you’ll have a big pile of diaper rolls!
Next you’ll start working on the first layer of your diaper cake.
You’ll need your large rubber bands for this.
You’ll put 7 diapers around the paper towel roll
& then secure the diapers with a rubber band.
Then you’ll have 13 diapers for your next circle.
Your biggest circle will have 18 diapers.
You’ll do the second & top layer the same way.
The second layer has a 6 diaper circle, then a 13 diaper circle.
The top layer has one 6 diaper circle.
To hide the rubber bands you’ll just use ribbon.
Tie a bow around each layer of your cake.
I also added a little tulle in my bows.
For the top of my diaper cake I used a Huggies wipe case.
I put Owen’s name on it with vinyl lettering. Super easy!
Then I stuck it right one the top!
Now everyone will know whose diapers these are. ha!
I love how it turned out!
This would make a great baby shower centerpiece!
OK…I can’t have a post about Owen without introducing him!
Meet my new little nephew~ Owen!
A BIG congratulations goes out to my sister & brother-in-law!
I’m so happy for your little family!
Thank you so much stopping by my blog!
