    Why not share your Nappy Cake creation on my Facebook page / greatauntuk or on Twitter @GreatAuntUK #nappycakes
    Lots more fun, easy ideas on my website: www.GreatAunt.co.uk
    Planning a baby shower? Then you need to know what a Nappy Cake is and how to make one for your mum-to-be friend. As an aunt to 22 nieces, nephew and godchildren I have made quite a few Nappy Cakes in my time! I came up with this really easy method which uses an empty Cadbury's Heroes tin, Huggies Newborn Nappies and Johnson's baby products.
    I hope you find my video useful!

    I've looked at several sites for diaper cakes, but they called for upwards of 96 diapers and were rather gaudy. Yours is simple and elegant. I love it! I'm going to make one for my daughter's baby shower which is this Sunday. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I will post a pic on your Facebook next weekend so you can see what a hit your "nappie cake" will be!

    I wanted to have a go at these, I'm also an Auntie soon to be again and I'm so excited to be going to my first baby shower. It's great that your video is so clear and makes something that looks spectacular seem a task you can approach. I've just got to get the ribbons today and will enjoy making it this evening. After scouring many websites I'm also making up a little changing bag for the big sister to be, with mini wipes, handwash, big sister books and a big sister sticker book. Thanks again great video.

    @GreatAuntUK  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks Melody, I agree! In the UK and Australia we wouldn't know what a "diaper" is either! That's why I get a lot of hits, because Brits and Aussies search for nappy cakes! A true example of the saying "Seek to understand before being understood"

    Well, after chasing rnd trying to find huggies, which by the way i still cant find, pampers had to do, if i say so myself it has come out really good, oh n dont get me started on teddys, where have all the teddys gone, so imprevised with minnie and she just sits perfect on top holding little pink brush and a dummy, as u cant just buy one bottle nooo u have buy three, anyway happy with my first attempt

    • @GreatAuntUK
      @GreatAuntUK  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello Carole! So glad you did it! I bet the final result looks amazing!
      In case it helps anyone else, either brand is fine, Huggies tend to have prettier pictures on them if that is important to you! My advice is to pick the size 1s or above as you never know how big the baby will be. Babies go through 10+ nappies a day so your friend will definitely need them all!
      In terms of teddies, I find supermarkets are the best bet especially big Tescos.

  • @GreatAuntUK
    @GreatAuntUK  11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hello @sarahbentley2117! Here are my suggestions:
    1. Plain hat boxes from Hobbycraft / Hobby Lobby / Michaels cost £5-10, about the same price as a tin of chocs!
    2. Try your local garden centre for a plastic plant pot of roughly the right size and shape.
    3. Make the base of the "cake" from nappies starting by tying 4 together, then 8 round that, then a final layer round that. This will make a sturdy base altho obv you won't be able to fill it like you can with a tin.
    I hope that helps!

    this is GREAT! all the other diaper cakes I've seen use so many diapers,not that I'm cheap. I have to admit the word"nappy" was hard to accept as an african american the word refers to hair type. As I read on and realized you are from the UK and that "nappy" is the word for diaper, I LAUGHED OUT LOUD! Makes one realize you shouldn't get offened so fast about words spoken. Thank You!
