My first grandbaby is due shortly and we are having a baby shower this weekend.

I made this nappy cake and thought you might like to have a look.

I found this 8-minute video that demonstrates how to make a nappy cake:

That is just precious!! :D

The video link Prism99 posted shows quite clearly how to put the nappy cake together. It's up to you what you actually use in it.

I used nappies on the bottom layer, bibs and growsuits in the second layer and singlets in the top layer. I used a bunny rug to wrap around the outside of the layers without wrapping a nappy around first.

The bibs, growsuits and singlets were rolled the same as the nappies, just making sure they were even in height.

My daughter (who is also expecting later this year) is making a bouquet using baby socks.

Thanks for the website. Now I too can make one. I just have to find a baby coming. :D

Isn't that just the cutest!!

Lacelady 06-14-2011 03:23 AM

Lovely idea - I haven't seen anything like it.

QuiltnNan 06-14-2011 03:32 AM

what a fantastic job!!

decky 06-14-2011 03:57 AM

That is really cute. When I found out that my daughter was expecting I started buying packages of diapers in all sizes, by the time she had her babies she had a pretty good stock of diapers. I think I bought a least 2 packages a month!!

Deecee 06-14-2011 04:08 AM

Great idea decky but I have to buy or make double as there is only 3 months between my DD and DIL's due dates.

quilter68 06-14-2011 05:34 AM

ADORABLE! It has been too long since we had a baby in the family that I never heard of this beautiful cake!

Blackberry 06-14-2011 05:42 AM

That is just plain adorable. I have never seen anything like that before.

Wonderful gift!!!

Sewfine 06-14-2011 06:20 AM

This is such a beautiful project. One of our doctors wife wants me to make one. I brought the McCall craft pattern when Hobby Lobby had their 99 cent sale. Looking forward to making one. I might go ahead and make one for GP.

Becka 06-14-2011 06:32 AM
