Cake Time

See? Now don't you wish you had invited me to your baby shower? Maybe next time, you will! Okay-so this is the first time I've done this and I actually felt quite crafty :-) I made a diaper cake! it would be three tiers but I ran out of diapers-but the bunny is a whole tier by himself. And in the middle is a thing of baby wash and 3 onesies. It was a really fun project-but I think you might underestimate the cost and time that goes into one. The commercially produced $80 cakes are believable to me. With more toys on the outside, etc... Anyway, I really enjoyed it! It cost me: $30 (being VERY frugal and creative with stuff-i.e. using wrapping paper and cardboard instead of a cake board for playyer, etc...) and 2-3 hours!

You did a great job on that cake! I liked the financials, too. It makes it seem even more worthwhile. But, anyway, it's the cutest one I've ever seen, with the bunny and all the toys and other goodies.

I agree with Mom and Julie that it is impressively cute. It will be interesting to see how many more invitations you receive in the future...
