    hiya, i love the towel cakes

    is there step by step instructions?

    and how do you get the layers to stay together.

    I use the coffee stirrers which I "collected" from ikea to keep the layers together

    Hi Carly

    I know the feeling, I need to get some more made for the craft fayre on 29th November and I'm running out of room and still need to make lots more things!

    I'm going to make two nappy cakes, haven't made any of them up until now, but thought I maybe should.

    Does anyone know what page the tutorial is on please?

    Thanks

  • Here are 2 of the childrens personalised bath time cakes that are part of an order, the lady that ordered them for her grandchildren didn't want any toys, colouring things only bath products that must be the same theme as the towels - I was absolutely tearing my hair out trying to find things and I didn't think it looked much for the price but the towels cost me £12 a bale so won't actually make a huge profit (do we ever lol!) Anyway heres the pics

    God no! lol! I can't sew for toffee! even with a machine :rotfl:
    I ordered them off ebay, the problem I had was that the lady that ordered them was quite prescriptive with what she wanted it to contain, which is fair enough but it wasn't easy to find the items :confused:
    Got there in the end though!
    :D
