diaper cake
I was thinking of doing this for a friend, but then wondered if people would really use the diapers considering they are touched and rubberbanded etc. just wondering your thoughts
edit - if anyone has tips for making one, please share

My Aunt made one for me and I used every single diaper. It was great because she used Newborn, Size 1 and Size 2 so I had a good variety.

My mom made every single CP at my shower a diaper cake and didn't use any glue, etc so that I could use the diapers afterwards. And we sure did! All 540 of them!

Re: diaper cake
I am a HUGE germaphobe and I used every last diaper from my diaper cake, handled, rolled, rubber-banded and all! I say go for it, I was SO happy that someone (and not even a super close friend!) made me one, I didn't think I would be getting one. I say go for it!

I absolutely used them! I don't see any issue since the diapers are folded closed when they come out of the package, so no ones touching the inner part of the diaper at all.

Re: diaper cake
I got two with DS and I hated it. My sister made a really nice one but its a pain to take it apart and the diapers are normally not the best diapers....
With that said I used every last one. I just didnt like taking it apart. It also had some great toys, bibs and other items on it.

Re: diaper cake
My aunt made me an awesome one all made out of pampers, and every tier was wrapped in a burp cloth or receiving blanket or something so it really looked like a cake. She also put all these little things on it like pacifiers, little bath toys etc. She put size newborn and size 1 diapers in it so I intend to use them all.

Re: diaper cake
I make them all the time for showers and stuff. I even have started a business doing it. Majority of the people have used the diapers..the only reason a few people didnt use them was because it was "too cute" to take apart!

Re: diaper cake
thanks for the insight ladies...i decided to make it this weekend and loved it! It was SO easy - i thought it would take long, but i literally had it done in about 20 minutes. i would have liked to make it an additional tier larger, but i ran out of diapers i picked a few gifts my friend registered for and added them to the cake.....i am debating on taking the teething rings off the top and replacing with a stuffed animal but for now here are some pics
