The contrast can be brought with ruffles and turnips, which, despite their airiness, will make a gift bright and interesting

Cake from diapers step by step - master class

Such beauty can be made independently, anyone can do it. Let's see what will be required for this:

Diapers-it is recommended to purchase 1st or 2nd size depending on the age of the baby. In general, it is better to take the diapers for growth if you are afraid to lose. The amount of this material depends on which size of the cake you plan to make
So, for a large product of three tiers, an average of 80 to 90 diapers will be needed. In some cases, even about a hundred. It is recommended to purchase three types of products - thus it will be possible to achieve visually smooth transitions between layers

Important: as for the brand of diapers, it is best to ask the parents what brand they prefer to buy - so you will definitely not be mistaken.

The number of diapers depends on the idea

A cake stand - a piece of a square -fiber canvas of a square shape, the sides of which will be approximately 37 centimeters, is ideal. It is worth picking up a slightly larger packaging for it. Refuse from ordinary cardboard immediately, as it will certainly bend under the weight of the finished gift
Food film
Polyethylene for packaging
Disposable gloves
Take care of the material with which everything will be fastened - these are tapes, bilateral tape, elastic bands, clothespins, wire. As for the ribbons, it is better to take at least 3 meters, but it is advisable to have a reserve. Stock up also with threads, stationery elastic bands or narrow ribbons in order to fix the diapers directly among themselves

Scissors
Children's things for decoration and filling, if you like a practical approach. These are booties, vests, diapers, nipples, teething, children's cosmetics, anti -ticaras. Well, of course, toys are only welcome

Now let's start the process of creating a cake:

Hygiene - first of all, therefore twist each diaper into the food film. In no case do not put this subject of hygiene on the table, even if the table seems clean. Twisting in gloves. How to make a wrap
You can thus process each diaper individually, or several pieces can be at once. Small advice: start folding with an elastic band - in this case, the side bend will be neat
And if you also refuel the elastic itself, it will come out remarkably, since nothing will stick out. Make sure that the pipe twists tightly. Fight each tube with an elastic band or temporarily clothespin

Important: be sure to thoroughly wash your hands and the materials with which you are going to work with.

Now place the diapers of the tier. As for the quantity, you can not wait for clear recommendations, because only you decide what size there will be a cake - maybe it will consist of one tier generally
One tube can be inserted into the middle, or you can leave the middle for something else-things, for example, or even a bottle of champagne to the delight of parents. You can twist both one tier and several, each of which will be less than the previous

This is what the tier is - the preparatory stage

Now wrap the tiers - the coating can both partially close the tier and completely. Even the partial will already look quite festive, in addition, the elastic bands with which the diapers are tied, you will hide
The ribbons here will be very appropriate. If you want to completely wrap the diapers, it is recommended to use special wrapping paper for this purpose or, even better, diaper
Flow the edges of the diaper with pins. Special pins for diapers are recommended - they are more and more elegant. Now take off the clothespins from diapers if you catch them

Important: in the event that you liked the option with a diaper most, fold it diagonally - so the edges for fixing will be thinner and it will be much easier to fasten them.

Diaper or blanket - ideal for wrapping tiers

When all the so -called floors of the cake are ready, you can start collecting it in a single composition. If you did not put anything inside, except for rolns from diapers, it is advisable to insert a thin stick there. Without anything in the center, the whole composition risks falling apart
Do not forget that the cake should be assembled on a solid basis, as which the stand is useful to us. Just wrap it in gift paper - this will turn out much more aesthetically
Make toys and clothing items as your fantasy prompts. Things can be interestingly designed - for example, socks are strung on the rectangles of cardboard, as a result of which you get candles for the cake
If it embarrasses diapers peeping on top, you can disguise them with something-special decorative grass is great for this for this

Tiers are collected in a single composition

Now you can, if you have a desire, pack the entire cake into a transparent film, tightening it with a beautiful bow on top - this is convenient, and hygienic and practical

This is how cakes look completely packed

Cake from diapers: tips and reviews

Reviews about such a gift are the most positive - both beautiful, and you can put into practice. As many women note, the cake can be presented both in addition to something and as a completely independent thing.

As for the size, the opinions diverge here - one seems to be bulky multi -tier, but for others this is an excellent opportunity to present as many necessary things as possible.

Be that as it may, but it is worth listening to the following tips:

Follow the purity of not only hands, tools, materials and table. It is necessary that the whole room be clean, without dust. Pets during the needlework process should definitely not be present nearby
You can argue about the number of diapers for a long time, because it all depends on the individual idea, but stock up on at least 60 diapers
In no case do not turn the diapers in the inside - this is very non -hygienic. If you are not satisfied with excessively motley coloring, it can always be masked with improvised materials
As for sterility, be sure to rand things with which decorate the cake. If something from the glass is present in the jewelry, treat this thing with an antiseptic
Choose toys exclusively high -quality, without extraneous smell
The diapers should be tied with an elastic band carefully - it should not squeeze the ranks, but at the same time the roll should not fall apart either

Here is such a beautiful gift, if you do everything right

From the side it seems that it is very difficult to create such beauty, but in the presence of appropriate knowledge this is completely not monitimate. In addition, the process is so delayed that it is a great way to spend leisure time. And what is worth the gratitude of the parents! For the sake of such moments, you should work.
