My Diaper Cake Creation!!

The finished product after all the attempts. I thought it turned out quite lovely don't
ya think? I was finally pleasantly pleased. Sigh!!!! It's always nice to say, done.............!!!!We were in the process of planning a baby shower for Ashley & I had gone to a little
boutique place we had visited earlier after our Mother's Day Luncheon in May. I had
wanted to go back & get an antique silver platter I had seen there. Well the platter
was gone........ but I had fun looking around anyway & I saw a diaper cake similar to this
but it was done in greens & different flowers, so I thought OH, maybe I could try to
make one of those for a table decoration for the shower. So I had fun searching for
the items & Wha-la!!!!! Well it wasn't that easy. I called all the girls asking where I could
find some diapers that were mostly white on one side after purchasing three or four
packages of diapers that tuned out to have all kinds of characters & colors on them.
So Ashley made out getting extra diapers!! I finally cut strips out of white trash bags &
triple folded them & tapped them around the layers to give it the whiter look & that
did the trick!!!

Oh........& it's sitting on my new dinning table in case you don't recognize it & I'll
blog about it later & get some good pictures. Another project done!!! Shopping for
a new dinning set!!!

Here's a close-up details, I wanted you to see the cute polka dot ribbon.....!!


Wow!! It's been a long while since I blogged. We got a new computer tower, and eveything
had to be swithched over. And everything looked different & when I downloaded my
pictures I couldn't find them for awhile so hence I'm way behind & will have to catch
up a little bit later!!!!
