It's been kind of busy around here. 
I just finished two Babicakes last week,
and have two more I am working on this week.......good sign!!!!

The first Babicake I did last week was for my friend Monica who was hosting her sister's baby shower.  We ran into each other at Michaels, and she told me she was getting a few things for the shower, and I of course said, ".....well, you know I make diaper cakes right? 
They are great for centerpieces and gifts for showers!"

So, off I went to make one for Monica's sister's shower. 
Here's what the final product looked like:

The second Babicake was a gift for a friend of mine, Stefanie. 
She is on her third kiddo (all girls!), and I wanted to bring her something special for the shower. 
She had a monkey theme similar to my sister's theme for Emma,
so I used similar receiving blankets . 
Here is the final product:

With all the craziness of moving, I haven't even had a chance to think about a daiper cake let alone make one!  But with my sister expecting #2 (a boy!), I got back to work on a new Babicake for her shower.  This one is made out of 50 size one Huggies diapers, three receiving blankets, and a super cute toy monkey that wrapped around the cake.  To top it off, I added the name ALEX to the cake.

This is the quality of your diaper cake if you buy elsewhere

This diaper cake is selling at Babies R Us for $109.00, and as my pregnant sister said, "there's nothing other than diapers that a mom can use from this!"


With my diaper cakes, you get a handmade product, diapers that the mommy can use, receiving blankets that the mommy can use, and a baby toy that the baby can use (or mommy can use as a decoration).....and they cost much less! My most expensive cake for sale is only $75!

Babicakes

I'm setting out on a new endeavour....making diaper cakes! Not super exciting, I know, but I found out that I am pretty good at it (and I have a blast making them). Finally I have found a way to tap into my creative side! Here are some of my creations:

My very first babicake for my sister. It included 76 newborn diapers, 3 receiving blankets, and a large monkey (plus extra decorations!)


This is the most recent diaper cake that I made. I made this custom for a friend of a friend's baby shower. It includes 63 newborn diapers, three receiving blankets, and a huge flexible flower through the center.


If you are interested in any of these babicakes or want one customized for you, please leave a comment for me or email me at leighmcneal@sbcglobal.net
