Nappy Cakes

Check out the 'Body Care' shop for cheap Johnsons baby products. They are half the price of Boots!

Thank you for the advice. Will have a look for items for nappy cakes.

Don't actually buy Johnson baby products and only get stuff from Boots with points for baby or if glitch or cheap.;)

Thanks to Aureol and Stormbreaker for enlightening me about the Boots thread. I must have led a sheltered life LOL:rotfl:
Kr - I wouldn't worry about the response from your friend some people are just really ignorant. I know its upsetting and easier said than done but chin up and take solace in the fact that your nappy cakes are lovely.
Sometimes the green eyed monster can rear its ugly head too and others are always quick to put other people down. :mad:

ok so I have had a little go at assembling my first nappy cake! I'm at my boyfriends just now though so I don't have all the clothes or any of my ribbon and stuff. Not been able to print out my star cert and the teddy for top is at home. :L I have made do with stuff here to get the idea though and it looked ,not bad - i think! Got a kiss from my boyfriend though and told that it was great!

I only had enough nappies for 2 tiers though and I kind of wanted 3 - used up all my budget though so can't buy anymore nappies. I used a plastic lid from a box that I had as a base so the bottom tier fits snug in it

Hi everyone,

I've just had a right challenge! My mum went on a shopping spree for one her staff who has a baby girl due in a couple of weeks. She went mad and bought loads for me to do her a nappy cake. She only wanted 3 tier as she said 4 would be over the top so I've just had to try and get everything into a 3 tier neatly! Here's what went in it:
43 x huggies nappies
7 x short sleeved bodysuits
1 x sleepsuit
1 x pair of cordouroy trosuers
1 x long sleeved top
1 x dress
1 x knitted cardigan
1 x shrug type cardigan
4 x bibs
1 x hat
3 x pair of socks
1 x pair of booties
3 x muslin cloths
1 x 500ml johnsons baby shampoo
1 x pack of johnsons wipes
1 x dummy and holder
1 x baby sponge
1 x fleece blanket
1 x soft rabbit teddy with rattle

Phew think that was it. I'm fairly pleased with it, I don't normally like alot on the outside of my cakes but didn't ahve much choice with this one!

The pink nappy cake is a work in progress for my sisters friend and is sitting on a pizza base tray until I buy a cake board and a soft toy for the top. Then I will wrap it. The basket is lined witrh a lovely soft lemon blanket and inside is a small nappy cake covered with a muslin cloth and sock roses put on top along with all the other bits you can see in the basket. It is now cellophaned and bowed with a lemon bow.
