Hey guys!
Today is Monday, so it is CRAFTING day!!!!!
My craft today is a Wagon Diaper Cake! =o) I really don't like making traditional diaper cakes because I feel that they are boring. So luckily, Thom on youtube (OFallonMonkey) makes awesome diaper cakes. I attached the video, but she did leave out some parts. I make this cake for the SAC at my school. She is having twins, so I had to make it more neutral. It still turned out awesome!
Materials:
2 foam poster boards
At least 50 diapers (size two)
4 Receiving blankets
1 spool of 2 1/2 in ribbon
1 spool of 1 1/2 in ribbon
1 teething ring
4 decorative flowers
Rubberbands
Hot glue gun (and glue)
Tape
Roll from the side |
She doesn't show you how to make the wheels, but I think it's because she has the instructions on other videos. If you don't want to sift through her videos to find how to, I am including some pictures.
I rolled the diapers up (open end first), tied them with rubber bands and then put six of them together. |

Here is the bottom of the wagon with the axles attached along with the wheels. |
Here is the receiving blanket wrapped around the diapers. |
One side finished. |

Other side. |
Oh, also, instead of putting a receiving blanket at the "handle" (since mine came in a pack of four), I just used a ribbon. That way I didn't have to use pins to hold it down, and I could just use hot glue. I also didn't wrap the ribbon around the handle.
The rest of the directions Thom does it in the video.
If you have any questions, please let me know! =o)
Oh wow my wife is going to have to do this for our daughter baby shower thank you 😀😀😀😀
