Diapercakes Throughout the Years

Image
I started making diaper cakes back in 2006, just a couple months after my son was born. I used it as a way to do something fun and generate some income, since I have always been one to like making my own money.  Since that time, I have created sold 100's of diaper cakes. I still make them by special request and from time to time will create a one of a kind designs, every now and then. I really enjoyed all the time spent creating these. I hope you enjoyed the pictures:)

I'm almost in Halloween decorating mode and starting to think about some crafts I might like to do. Then I remembered, one of my favorite pumpkin creations, that I made with my son, back in 2010. I don't have a tutorial but I still have the picture, so I thought I would share:) Pretty easy to make..... You will need: 1 medium to large pumpkin that is flatter instead of round. 1 small round pumpkin to make the head foam craft sheets in black and orange acrylic paints in black, white and I used a glow in the dark yellow for the eyes and inside of ears. rhinestones in a medium size...you don't want them too tiny any other embellishments you might want to add small wooden dowl hot glue gun and glue sticks Paint pumpkins black and let dry. Paint on kitties face and let dry. Insert small dowel into bottom of the head and then push into larger pumpkin body. Secure around the neck with hot glue. Make a foam collar to hide hot glue.....decorate collar as you like....
