How to Make a Mini Diaper Cake

On Wednesday I shared a post on the baby shower I threw last week. When I started planning the party, I saw these cute diaper cakes on Pinterest and I knew I wanted to have some for the party. I had never made a diaper cake and wasn’t sure how difficult they would be but thought I would look up how to make one and discovered that they were pretty easy! So off to Michael’s I went to start creating what ended up being pretty darn cute diaper cakes.

I thought I would share how easy it was with anyone else out there that might be intimidated by diaper cakes.

I did make mini ones, since they were smaller and easier to transport than one large one, and this way I got to spread them out as decor (I used them as centerpieces) and then the Mom-to-be got to take them home as gifts!

Mini Diaper Cake DIY Tutorial

Supplies:

-A package of Diapers. (I bought a 40 pack of size 1’s) I used 10 per cake.
-Ribbon: I bought a thicker ribbon and a different color skinnier ribbon.
-Rubber Bands: You will need two per cake.
-Scotch tape
-Colored shredded crepe paper.
-Optional: I found the wooden crowns at Michael’s that I painted. They came on sticks as they were for photo booth props. However it is optional to add something on a stick or on something cute to stick on the front).

Step One:

Start with rolling three diapers up and wrapping a rubber band around them.
