I am about the least crafty person on planet earth. But my dear friend who I have known since high school is expecting twin girls and I threw a shower for his wife. She really wanted a diaper cake.

I said -- a what?

I did some research, bought a bunch of dipes and ribbon, and stole fresh flowers from our marina garden and VOILA!

Behold! My first crafty project!

That turned out so pretty! I've never seen one done with fresh flowers before, that's awesome. I've always wanted to make a diaper cake, but I've never had a reason to

That is the prettiest one I have ever seen! Nice clean lines on it....most are so over the top and gaudy IMO. Nice job!

Golly thanks everyone!

I agree -- I was looking at ones online and they all looked clunky and cluttered. I liked the clean and classic ones best!
