Hey guys! I hope you are having a fantastic day!
For my first post I wanted to share my experience on planning an exciting event. I had recently helped a friend with her baby shower and knew it would be a good idea to share my ideas.
This is one of my bigger projects from a couple months ago. I had the honor of hosting and decorating a friend's baby shower. I stayed up all night figuring out what we wanted to include and how to tie the whole theme together. I was filled with excitement after hearing that it was going to be safari theme! I played with colors such like green, orange, yellow and blue. Here are a few pictures from the event.
A few items such as the animal prints were purchased from Party City. I had so much fun making the cake, it was rolled up and tightened with rubber bands. So here's how you can make a diaper cake for your friend's baby shower! Purchase a box of Huggies (140 cts.).Roll each diaper individually and secure with a rubber band. A bag of rubber bands can be purchased at the dollar tree. Color of rubber bands does not matter, as seen in the picture it will be covered with the animal ribbons. The top tier can have 30 diapers, 2nd tier 50 and the bottom tier will have 60. The numbers of diapers on each tier may vary depending on how tight the diapers are rolled up, feel free to play around and adjust if needed. (Tips: Roll each diaper in the same size to avoid any unevenness.)
The ribbons and wooden animals on the cake are from Michael's. In the left corner, we made cake pops and dipped it in orange and yellow chocolate. The small flavors were made with golden boxes, tissue, construction paper and skewers. We also wanted to include some savory treats, so we added in popcorn containers. Popcorn containers can be purchased at Party City. Customized the popcorn containers with construction paper and print outs.
Hope you guys enjoyed this awesome baby shower idea!
