[@silviavasco4665]

How do I know what size is the templates for the 60 Bottom, 20 middle and 9 top on the diapers? I think you have done a great job with this tutorial all we need is how to make the templates. Keep up the good work its simple and very pretty.

[@barbarahorton3425]

how many inches is are the templates

[@crystalweiche6925]

Yes that’s my question too

[@jessywanders8829]

Same question.

[@joni22262]

Loved the cake...you can tie the teddy bear with a curling ribbon tied to the teddy bear then through the cake ribbon. How do you keep the layers together?

[@theSoutherlands]

dowel rods stuck down and hidden inside

[@theresaoconnor5115]

I just love this baby girl diaper cake!:)

[@theSoutherlands]

Thank you

[@jonathanweintz2885]

I love this picture of The diaper cake I really want to make one myself and it’s for my apartment because it reminds me of when I was a baby once and I’m proud to have it because I am a proud uncle so I love you a lot

[@elaineperkins5271]

love it so beautiful , do the tiers slip off when you're moving it ? xx

[@theSoutherlands]

Mine never do. I move them carefully.

[@malvinagreenfield499]

It looks fantastic! Thank you for the detailed video. I think it will be much easier to know the inches of the decorative ribbon for each layer. Will please kindly provide the numbers?

[@itsveroslife9592]

Perfect video for what I was looking to do 💕 thank you 🙏🏽

[@raeannsartcreations9285]

Super cute. 💞

[@franreid437]

How big did you make each template? Thank you

[@craftygirl6393]

I use a roll of paper towels in the middle but I take half of the paper towels off. You use less diapers that way and save on the cost😊

[@theSoutherlands]

that's a great idea

[@elim4024]

Wow great tutorial thanks for posting its cost effective but looks very nice almost everything can be reused. But what are the diameters of the temples pls

[@theSoutherlands]

i honestly do not know on the templates. sorry.

[@christyhenrich_hacker6960]

Looks great

congrats nana! that is so special. thank you.

Aaaaaaaaaaa

[@maguybanker2132]

These tips helped me make my last second choice of what my baby shower gift for my dear cousin would be. It was so very easy to find the parts at affordable prices near by, plus they weren't a problem to ride my bike home with either. I rode my bicycle a mile uphill bought all of the same ideas and main important pieces for making the Diaper Cake, brought them home and put the things together in less than an hour. This was an amazing gift. It even ended up being the most popular amongst all of the rest of the Baby Shower presents. Well made Diaper Cake tutorial! It is a success for plenty of people and beginners.

[@theSoutherlands]

thank you!

[@211sweetypie]

Nice job! I would have definitely put that "It's a girl" sign in the teddy bear's hand. Also I would put small artificial pink rose buds or bows on top of some of the rolled diapers, then I would draw decorations on the pink ribbons ( hearts ect.) in silver glitter just to give it some extra glam and placed the finished product on a clear serving tray from the Dollar Tree. This is a wonderful ideal.

[@JannyMaha]

Thanks for the ideas! They sound great! Just finished mine and I think I'll be incorporating one or more of your ideas. Especially the 'Its a girl!' sign!

[@You-Can-Call-Me-Yoly]

I never add glitter to these types of projects because you want the baby to use the diapers so you need diaper to be as clean as possible. Theresa, great tutorial. Thanks.

[@silviavasco4665]

Great job, can you tell me how many inches the tier have the one for 60 diapers,20 and 10 so I can cut it out and it will be much easier. Thanks great video.

[@tthompson4335]

That was my question also what's the measurements of the 60;20;10 thanks

[@ambercompton4967]

Right that's what I'm struggling w too

[@staceyburnell-fulbright1428]

For first timers can't use the template because we don't know what 60,20&10 diapers look like or size. That is the one thing I found not helpful; however, the rest of tutorial is AWESOME. .

[@theSoutherlands]

they are size one diapers. once you get them rolled and together then wrap your template material around it and BAM! Template. That's it.

[@silviavasco4665]

Yes I think the same.

[@JannyMaha]

@@theSoutherlands No Bam! happening for me either. What we need is each band's diameter, please. Thanks .

[@startinajackson606]

It's a figure out able momemt

[@opass1959]

How does the tiers stay together?

[@theSoutherlands]

You can push dowel rods down into it or just set them on top of each other.

[@MamaRutyof9]

Beautiful! Love it!

[@theSoutherlands]

thank you

[@carolinegilmore2484]

Can I ask how you keep all the tiers together to stop them falling off??

[@theSoutherlands]

Dowel rods and the ribbon is usually tight enough to hold it all together. if you put cake rounds under the layers... it helps too.

[@HAIRHOLIC_1]

Omg so cute 😍😍 I will make one like this thank you

[@theSoutherlands]

Thank you.

[@graygentle4543]

Great job!

[@mollytrudeau4189]

I used safety pins or ribbon to attach toys , socks and bottles. They stay in place and then even the ribbon can be reused and nothing has hot glue on it.

[@theSoutherlands]

what a great idea!! thank you for the tip.

[@mollytrudeau4189]

@@theSoutherlands Your diaper cake is beautiful!

[@pgjgjgj]

You glued the booties?

[@theSoutherlands]

No, you can just set them in place. No need to glue

[@joancook8454]

how do you keep the layers from falling when moving it?

[@theSoutherlands]

usually use dowell rods pushed down into the layers. you can also use a clear wrap and wrap the entire thing. i did that recently.

[@amigostravel5490]

Beautiful🌹🏵️🥀🌷🌸🌺🌷🌸🏵️🌹🥀🌷🥀🌸🌺🏵️

[@wanthonyvaughn6246]

oh please!!! beautiful. what about moving it?

[@theSoutherlands]

Use dowel rods in the center or cake rounds for each tier and put it together at the shower. Very easy to move. You can also wrap it it clear wrap and put a ribbon on top. ❤️

[@vanildenascimentodeoliveir4146]

Super! Danke!!!!

[@Michelle-rk5tf]

What is the measurement of the template

[@lucysantiago2067]

I love it thank you ...for showe me how to make pamper cake.

[@loraleedisanti559]

Nice. but how are you carrying it this cake without a bottom or a center rod/paper towel holder to hold all the diapers in place?

[@theSoutherlands]

there is a cake round on the bottom. dowell rods in the tiers. easy

[@mkiefer8724]

Darling

[@DeniseMetzger-gb7mn]

What size is the templates for 60, 20 and 10. I need to know the size of each template so I know how round they are please. Thanks

[@otilialopez3040]

I do love this cake its so big

[@campanillafani2554]

No me gustó nada porque hay tanta silicona en todo que el bebe no va a poder jugar con ninguna cosita que tiene la tarta.

[@patlove1076]

Beautiful, where can I find the templets that size?

[@theSoutherlands]

you basically just make your own template if you are going to be making multiple cakes.

[@getlauriekor]

What are the measurement for the templates?

[@latoyamark6352]

What are the measurement for the templates

[@kueentl069]

So adorable ❤

[@sandrastewart2170]

I am going to make this for sure for a Grandma baby shower. But I am amazed at how you have avoided every ones question as to the size of the templates. Just a rough idea would really help. Please respond to ths for e.

[@theSoutherlands]

i amazed that you can't sit down and figure that out.

[@claramaldonado94]

Beautiful. This is how I did my cakes.

[@dawnhoward7670]

What size do you cut the templates

[@theSoutherlands]

Lost them. don't remember the sizes. I know that total diapers used is usually 95 to 100. not sure if that helps.

[@irenemarcos1714]

Lovely,I would have loved to see final plastic wrapping to carry it too😅

[@rodeomama62]

Love this one the best out of all I have watched Thank you.

[@theSoutherlands]

Thank you 😊

[@MsMaree]

OK, but how do you transport this if it's not attached to anything?

[@sandrahubbard3026]

Love,love,love this. Great idea for baby shower gift also.

[@thatlovelydancerIlao]

So pretty. I love the baby gifts added. Thanks for sharing this with us

[@joannephillips4503]

This is wonderful .. can you tell me the diameter for each of the circles - i would love to make that template - great idea. Joanne

[@theSoutherlands]

Thank you. I used 3 cake rounds to get the sizes. Large, medium and small.

[@hensojen]

You are awesome! TFS 😗

[@Gailgrindstaff]

How did you secure the diaper layers so the layers stay in place when you move the cake?

[@NikiReynolds_2swift]

That's adorable and I want that Teddy Bear.

[@caritasanaya9833]

What is dowel rod and how many inch is each template thank you. It looks so cute. I want to make one

[@theSoutherlands]

For the sizes I would use these amzn.to/3jJMSgB Dowel rods shown here amzn.to/3eYdBT2

[@joyceechandler206]

so far i like this video the best. what size are the templates

[@silviavasco4665]

If you move it what's going to happen? Because you didn't put anything in the middle.

[@theSoutherlands]

i make them on top of a solid cake round. no problems moving.

[@christinavelez1661]

dowel rods down into the layers.

@@theSoutherlands what are the measurements for the templates

yes, i leave it to where everything can be used.

[@wolfespond3732]

What keeps the layers together

[@theSoutherlands]

Dowel rods can be used. On mine. I just stack them. It stays together well. You can also place cake rounds between each layer as well.

[@aqsadanish.1886]

Superb

[@beautyandthestamperroberts4471]

Very nice

[@Lnicole111]

Hi! Quick question: Did you do anything to secure the 3 layers altogether so they don't move?

[@theSoutherlands]

I don't usually use anything but if you wanted to make sure they didn't move you can push the pencil sized dowel rods down into the layers and they would hold perfectly. Thanks for watching :)

[@didiprescott4690]

Ugh how will you transport the whole cake when it doesnt have a base as support and nothing's holding the layers together..

[@theSoutherlands]

Didi Prescott 🙄🙄🙄 use a cake round under it. And the layers don’t need anything to secure them but if you want... add dowel rods.

[@marwatson7408]

Very creative thank you for show me. I think I will try one and see how it turns out 👶🎀🧸🧴

Lovely

[@paulettefan1]

very adorable

[@vidushiagrawal4129]

Nice..but i have a Question. U used diaper. Have u stic these diaper cake with glue , tap or something???

[@theSoutherlands]

just rubber bands to secure the diapers and then ribbon to fasten all together.

[@wanevacook5675]

I love the gift idea. But does the glue damage the diapers?

[@theSoutherlands]

Not as long as you don't glue to the diapers. Glue to the ribbon

[@elneattrajohnson9645]

Hi how did you make the layers stay!!

[@theSoutherlands]

Rubber bands and ribbon

[@You-Can-Call-Me-Yoly]

Theresa, how did you secure the booties to the top of tier?

[@theSoutherlands]

With a dowel rod shoved down into the diapers. Just tie, clear tape or a dab of hot glue to the rod

[@teeterzfotu561]

Love it! ♥️

[@bheldizon4308]

Now how do you transport the diaper cake to the party?

[@theSoutherlands]

either all together on a cake round or take apart the layers and place them in cake boxes till you get to location. either way... it's easily transported.

[@ruchijindal2122]

Perfect

[@thembekamashaba2684]

So thankful

[@sheabuske4445]

[@isien1489]

I am making one at home, but I want to take to to my the party... Do I take it apart den set it up there?

[@theSoutherlands]

sure, that would work better then trying to move it all put together. you can hot glue down the stuff that you want to stay on the ribbon and then add the bigger stuff at the party.

[@STEPnREPEAT]

this is so stinkin cute! I'm gonna make a diaper cake for my boss b4 she goes on maternity leave! so excited
