Diaper Cakes - Pea in a Pod

This month I created a diaper cake for a woman at my Mom's church.  I call it the "Pea in the Pod" cake because of the pea green accents.  I love the color combination of teal, brown, and pea green.  This cake includes 80 Huggies Size 1-2 diapers, 1 Parent's Choice bottle, 1 14" cardboard cake circle, brown paper shreds, and 3 wooden artificial flowers (pea green) from Pier 1.  Aren't this flowers beautiful?  I wish I would have bought the store out when I first got them.  The miniature bows were added down the front of the cake for a special touch. 

Pier 1 sells these wooden flowers as reed diffusers but I love them trimmed and used as cake toppers.  They give this cake a organic/natural feel when combined with the brown paper shreds.  This cake could even be remade with eco-friendly diapers.


Below is a close up of the ribbon on this cake.  The first 2 ribbons were found at Michael's and the last one is from Joann Fabrics.
