DIAPER CAKE

I have seen these diaper cakes in a magazine 3 years ago and I remember that I thought "I've never seen such a thing before". I wanted to make one since then. It was one of my friends' baby shower a few weeks ago and I decided to make one for her. I included lots of gifts to that one like baby bottle, baby bath towel, a toy and even a dozen rose bouquet that I made out of baby socks but this picture is not the one I made for her. I forgot to take a picture of that one:( This one is only diapers and ribbons and I included a little bear on top. I am hoping that I will post more pictures showing different variations of diaper cakes later.

GIFT MUG

Here is a gift mug you can make yourself easily with just a few ingredients. You need:
A favorite mug
3 tea bags
1 honey teaspoon
2 biscotties
Packaging paper or even old newspaper
Paper Shred in coordinating color
Cellophane roll or small size cellophane bag
Ribbon in coordinating color
Tape
First fill the bottom of the mug with some packaging paper or newspaper. Then cover it with a little bit of colorful paper shred. Secure the two biscotties in the back. Use tape to secure them if needed. Glue dots work perfectly for this job but tape is just fine if you don't have glue dots. Tape the three tea bags together creating a fan. Secure the tea bags to biscotties with another piece of tape. Secure the honey teaspoon to the side inserting it deep into the shred and paper. Then wrap the mug with cellophane and tie it with a nice bow. Cut the top of the cellophane to shorten it or to make it look nicer and give it a fan shape. Your cute little gift is ready for its recipient. Have fun!
