Beachy Keen!

So awhile back I shared a quick look at the beach themed diaper cake that I had finished. Well know I can share the fully complete cake!What do you think? This is a different look for diaper cakes for me, focusing more on the theme of the cake instead of what's surrounding the cake.

The cake is covered in decorative fishing net and shells

I was told that mom and dad to be are very relaxed parents so it should be a simple cake. So the cake is decorated with Johnson and Johnson travel products, two NUK pacifiers, one pair of socks and 2 Gerber soft tip spoons

I'm pretty much in love with this cake. Here's hoping mom and dad to be are as well!!

Wild Ride

I was asked recently to put together something that I hadn't done yet, a diaper motorcycle. I've seen other diaper motorcycles out there, so I knew I had to add something unique to set it apart. First let's take a look at the finished product, see if you can spot my special touch!!
The bike is made up of 34 Pampers newborn diapers, 2 bibs, 1 bottle, 1 wash cloth, 2 receiving blankets, 2 link toys, 1 pair of socks and one super soft dog.

And what was my special touch?

The kickstand!!

Pinky Penguin!

First, let's all just take in how adorable this little penguin is. And he (or she!) is so soft!! But I'd like to think that this little cutie is just the icing on the cake.This cake just screams little girl! Hot pink and covered in flowers. For those of you who closely follow this blog, you may recognize the ribbon from a few other projects. The hot pink larger ribbon has also made an appearance on this cake while the smaller flowered covered ribbon was last seen on the middle cake of the blog header.This cute little cake is made up of 80 size 1 Pampers diapers, 3 Gerber soft tip spoons, Johnson and Johnson travel size products, 2 NUK pacifiers, 1 pair of newborn socks, 2 Bright Starts teething rings, 1 Bright Starts wrist rattle, two bibs, two wash cloths and 1 sippy cup for baby's big sister!

What do you think?

And stay turned, we have a busy week and a half coming up! Lot's of new cakes to share with everyone!!

Feeling Beachy

So this cake isn't 100% complete, but I'm so in love with it that I can't help but share it.
Absolutely, 100% in love with it. It's different than any other cake I've done. It focuses less on the items around the cake, and more on the theme and the fact that it's a cake made out of diapers. I think that's why I love it so much.

Preview

I was recently asked to make a two tier beach themed diaper cake, as well as a diaper cake motorcycle. While I've done plenty of diaper cakes, a motorcycle is a new one for me, but I'm so excited to take this on! Plus, all of this nice weather we've been having has put me in a very beachy mood!!

I went today and got a few things to use on both the cake and the motorcycle.

So keeping with the theme and the colors, we have starfish and sand dollars, plus decorative fishing net (which I'm imaging having that draped over the top layer of the cake). Then we have the beachy blue color in the blankets which are going to be used on the motorcycle to hold the wheels together and to also become the the handlebars (along with the socks which will become the handles). Then the bibs will be used to cover the diaper wheels. And finally, the colors. I went with an ocean blue solid ribbon and then brought in a little extra color with the second ribbon, using the brown in the ribbon to match the shells. The double ribbon will be used on the cake, and at least the solid blue ribbon will be used on the motorcycle. I can't wait to put all of these together and share with everyone the finished product!!
