A diaper cake is such a sweet idea! I wish I had known about this last year when three of my girlfriends were pregnant, but it's definitely an idea to keep in mind for the future.

I have seen these at showers and had thought I should make one for the next one. But then by the time one rolls around, I forget how it was put together. This is great. I can save it and be ready for the next shower. Diapers are always a wonderful gift.
