Halloween 2012 is almost here and these diaper cakes will be great to celebrate a new baby in the fall!
It’s never too late to give a new baby the gift of diapers! During a baby shower, the most popular gifts to give a new mom are practical, functional gifts. These gifts will be the staple items for a baby at all showers throughout time.
Most people use diaper cakes as a centerpiece at the baby shower party. I would personally use it in the front of the gift table. Diaper cakes are definitely not edible, despite their misleading name. Diaper cakes are filled with the supplies that a new mom needs to care for her new baby. These essentials can be overwhelming to get singly, but purchasing a diaper cake is practical for the buyer as well, since it’s loaded with the essentials that should have been picked out!
These diaper cake designers arrange your fully functional gifts in creative and unique ways as is the new tradition for baby showers. These diaper cake designers can provide you with original gifts and each designer has their very own unique touch so that no two diaper cakes can be duplicated.
These very special creations serve as a gift to both a new baby and to the mom-to-be!
Diaper cakes are a great tradition and they actually remind me of something that would be on Alice In Wonderland in the madhatters parties. With the freedom to be extravagant, as most designers are, diaper cake designs are becoming more and more whimsical! Diapers are being sculpted and disguised to look like teddy bears, elephants, strollers, motorcycles, there are designs that make me burst out in amusement! Diaper cakes are definitely fun and a great way to show how truly happy you are for the new mom-to-be.
There are no real standards to diaper cake creations. Some diaper cakes average between 45-85 diapers. Some diaper cake designers use Pampers diapers, while others use a different brand. Some diaper cakes have wash cloths, baby powder, baby lotion, baby shampoo, feeding utensils, baby teethers, mittens and all sorts of wonderful goodies! Some designers use different size diapers in the cakes so that the diaper cake can be used for the different stages baby goes through in a short amount of time. Some diaper cakes come with little recipe cards summarizing the contents of the cake, while others have a nice little poem included.
I’ve seen diaper cakes used at different types of parties as well. Diaper cakes have been given at office parties, diaper parties, baptisms, tea parties and even toddler birthdays! A diaper cake can be given with a great story attached to the design. Every designer has a unique story to tell!
The designer can do all the hard work of assembling and creating the overall design of the diaper cake. But as a gift-giver, you can get creative also! You have many creative choices to make and lots to consider! How well do you know the new mom? Which diaper cake theme should you choose for her? What about the new dad? Do you know the new dad than you know the new mom? What are the theme colors? Do you want to get more personal with matching their hobbies and interests? Is the new baby a boy or a girl? What about twins? Diaper cakes are not just limited to set themes. They can be anything you want them to be, you just have to decide on the right designer for the job!
