Topsy Turvy Diaper Cake Giveaway!

I featured Renee from Topsy Turvy Diaper Cakes on a recent Fab Five Friday post (click here to see original post) and knew you would love her work! I saw her on Martha Stewart and could not wait to post a link to her Etsy store where she sells patterns and video instructions for amazing diaper cakes and accessories made out of baby washcloths and bibs.

After Renee saw my post she contacted me and sent me video directions for five designs! I couldn’t wait to make some of the washcloth designs and share them with you! Can you believe these are made using baby washcloths and you can take them apart and the washcloths are good to use? No sewing needed! What a great gift idea!


I wanted my projects to be part of a floral centerpiece for a baby shower, but I am not a florist, so I took my washcloth treasures to Jourdan a very talented floral designer for Knox Flowers in Helena,MT. She worked her magic and I love how it turned out! Thanks again Jourdan!


First I made the lollipop, then the elephant followed by the hippo.


Can you believe this adorable elephant is made using two baby washcloths?


I think the hippo is my favorite! Warning! These adorable animals are too much fun to make! It will be hard to stop!

Now for the good news, Renee is sponsoring a giveaway that includes free video directions for your choice of a diaper cake plus two washcloths or bib designs. You get to choose!

I'd love to win one of those videos - those animals are precious! Not sure I could take them apart just to get to a washcloth, though!

Oh my your animals and lolipop are so cute. The mama-to-be is going to love the table center piece. She isn't going to want to break apart these guys for sure. Thanks for sharing.

How generous of Renee! Thanks for sharing your creation, (with Jourdan's help, of course)! When you initially shared Renee's etsy shop, I checked it out, and was duly impressed. Unfortunately, I never expected to have any use for it. I have since been told, I'm an expectant aunt! I am soooo very excited. I am grateful for the opportunity to win, in hopes that I could craft one for my brother, SIL, and baby girl/boy.

Oh my goodness... so cute!

Cindy said...

Your centerpiece is adorable! I loved these ideas the first time you posted them. So, so cute!

Brenda said...

This is the most adorable gift/centerpiece. I would love to win as my daughter-in-law and son are expecting their first child at the end of September. Since "grammy" won't be there as often as I would like, (distance between states is over 3K miles) this precious piece could sit on my little 'darling's' dresser to remind him of me!

Marcia said...

This is so adorable...much better than the traditional diaper cake! I would love to win one of the videos! Thanks for the chance!
