Penelope "Penny" June

 

 

She is here!!!

The first of seven little ones to come this year!

 

This diaper cake is a little on the late side 

( I wasn't able to make it to Camille and Jason's baby shower)

I started off by buying;

A pack of 60 swaddlers size 2 and a small shampoo bottle 

(Mama to be- choice of shampoo)

I then rolled all 60 diapers like cigars 

 

and rubber banded them in place

 

Tip: Keep all the rubber bands

 

in the middle or closer to the bottom

 

Since this is a smaller pack of diapers then I normally use

I placed a roll of toilet paper as the base

I have done this in the past, and it actually seems to work best  

After the third tier is added

I measure out some ribbon 

and fasten it in the back 

with hot glue 

This is an added touch

that I have really grown to love

It is just simple crinkled paper 

sold at most craft stores

and in many many colors

Now for the cute stuff!!!

Using the cricut machine

I cut out the baby's name

and two adorable owls

(mama's favorite)

This gives it a more personal feel

and it is way to friggin cute!!
