I am not sharing my desk this week but decided to share some baby shower photos. A couple of weeks ago, I shared a working shot of the diaper cake I was making for the co-ed baby shower we were hosting. The shower was this past weekend and here are some photos:
If you've never seen or heard of a diaper cake, they don't normally have rows of beer cans, but I added them because of the "Baby Is Brewing" theme.
I made the onesies, the banner and the daisies at the corners.
Here's a closeup:
These were the centerpieces on each table. There was also a trivia card on each plate but this photo was taken before we added them.
These stickers were also made by me. In an earlier post, I showed how I made etched pint glasses with this logo. See the post here.
I did not make these cookies but we did stamp the tags. Aren't these adorable?! And so good!
My DIL ordered a plain cake with minimal decorations and I made the cake topper.
If you haven't guessed by now, the baby's name will be Daisy. We incorporated daisies along with the beer theme. It was a co-ed shower and we had a lot of fun. The weather was perfect and they were showered with lots of love!

I will be late visiting this week as I'm leaving for a three day conference for work.

ReplyDeleteWhat fabulous decorations Dorlene. No wonder your son is beaming from ear to ear. Great theme too. Happy belated WOYWW. Sarah #4
ReplyDeleteAw, Dorlene, you worked so hard..totally worth it, look at their happy faces. I love the theme anyway, but think the daisies and such touches were perfect, such a beautiful name too. I hope you had a lovely day. I can’t for the life of me work out what the c0-ed part of the shower means...but who cares..an event you’ve crafted, swirling with family and love is a wonderful thing.
ReplyDeleteWonderful idea a diaper cake, like practical things we’ll dine, great share.
