Bringing a baby to this word is a beautiful, joyous and elevating moment. It's also a morally and economically difficult decision. The parents and friends of the new family will mainly be part of situations which evoke in them the feelings expressed earlier, while the newborn's parents will also confront with the latter parts. One of the most common ways friends try to help the mother and father to be is through advices, helpful actions and gifts. That's why baby showers, christenings are held for the new family, giving useful presents and being there for their happiness. Though in some cultures buying things for the unborn child and specific to its supposed sex means bad luck, you can never get wrong with diapers, since no matter if it's a boy or a girl, they would surely use those.

If you want to make a gift as simple and prosaic as diapers, a festive present which tells that you thought about the parents to be and didn't just grab the first thing that came into your mind in the supermarket, put your creativity to test, and make a diaper cake. Diaper cakes for girls and for boys are ideal because they are useful and also pretty, and look very good as a center piece on the festive table, but can be used later, as they are one of the sure things a baby would definitely need.

So if you decided you'll make a diaper cake, you'll need a followings:

- lots of diapers (preferably the same size and brand)

- rubber bands (different sizes)

- decorating elements like ribbons, stripes, flowers

- utensils like a scissor, glue, sellotape.

First roll up all the diapers separately and hold them tight with a rubber band. Diaper cakes for girls and boys look better if they have at least three stores, each one bigger than the previous. Start putting one rolled up diaper into the middle, and as many around as many would make a round form. Hold them together with another, bigger rubber band. If this is the smallest, keep it, and do the same thing again, but place another line of diapers around the second one, and three lines for the third one. The last diaper layer, the biggest will be the base of the cake, so place it on the bottom. Put the next, smaller on top of it and the smallest on top of that. If you're creating diaper cakes for girls, use some pink, red or purple ribbons to tie around the cake layers, so the rubber bands won't show. If it's for a little baby boy, use some blue, green or gray colors - those are traditionally more "manly" colors. In order to keep the diaper layers on top of each other, you can either glue them together, or use a central piece in the middle of the cake, like a baby bottle or a slim vase. Decorate your cake with ribbons, flowers or even little edible animals like gummy bears. Hope you have fun making the diaper cake, it's probably the most fun anyone can have with diapers.
