Baby Diaper Cakes Are Becoming Even More Popular in this Economy


Baby Diaper Cakes Are Becoming Even More Popular in this Economy

Author: christian abad
The shift in the economy is bringing about changes in how baby showers are planned and the types of gifts people are giving to the new mom and dad. There is more awareness about the types of gifts that will really help the new parents get ready for the new arrival.
Giving gifts that include baby layette gift sets and baby gift baskets that are plentiful with all of the baby clothes, blankets and other necessary items are still as popular as ever.
Baby diaper cakes were introduced a few years ago and they are even more popular today because they are not only fun but also practical. Just because more people are paying attention to their budget does not mean the whimsy should be eliminated from gift-giving. Half of the fun leading up the birth of the child is gathering the small, soft, sweet-smelling miniature clothing items and anticipating the new little one wearing them.
Presenting a baby diaper cake will create not only lots of giggle and fun conversations about who is going to be changing the diapers - it also make a beautiful presentation that can up the anticipation factor for that glorious day when the new baby comes.
There are many choices in baby diaper cakes these days, including diaper cakes made with organic diapers and other organic baby clothes. A topping for the cake can even include an organic stuffed toy.
All babies need stuffed animals to not only help them with their hand and eye coordination but also in encouraging their imagination skills. The stuffed toy can be their new little best friend, offering up many hours and years of fun.
Coming in many pastel colors, there are lots of pink cakes to choose from and a plentiful amount of blue cakes. Neutral colors with greens, oranges and yellows are perfect when the gender of the baby is going to be surprise.
Sports themed cakes are very popular for the parents that enjoy sports. Buying a cake for the baby shower is perfect. Sending the diaper cake gift to welcome everyone home is just as popular and always appreciated.

5?Friday





HECK YES! I'm doing 5 Question Friday this week! WOO HOO! (I didn't get around to it the last two fridays, ooops) So, here it goes


1. Have you ever visited another country?

Nope, I've never been anywhere west of Kentucky, or north of West Virginia. I've always wanted to travel over seas though.....maybe one of these days...hmmm...

2. Where is the strangest place you have ever been?

A church that was EXTREMELY "Backwoods" I guess you could say. It was in a place called Pipa passes in Kentucky. It's probably wrong of me to say but, it kinda reminded me of the movie "Deliverance"

3. What is your favorite season?

SUMMER!!! I'm not big on Fall or Winter, I can't stand how short the days are. I NEED SUNLIGHT! 

4. What one song will always cheer you up?

Oh Atlanta! Allison Krauss (My hero) 

5. What Disney character do you resemble most?

Cinderella I suppose? I mean, we're both blondes, I don't think I really "resemble" any of the disney characters

Yes, I've been a slack blogger but, I think I have a pretty good reason. I've been working on new products for Luca Bella and I think I've come up with 2 really good ones!
  I'm pleased to announce that Luca Bella will now carry personalized water bottle labels, which are great for both baby showers favors, as well as bridal showers.  Also, we now offer embellished flip flops which would be great as an addition to your bride maids gifts. If you're getting married anytime soon? Are you planning on going with your ladys to have your hair and nails done pre wedding? Well, why not buy matching flip flops, so you can all be co ordinated, and your pedi won't get messed up before the big event!

5QF




1. What were your school colors?

Red white and Black, Let's GO VIKINGS Let's GO WOO WOO! 

2. What's the best compliment you ever received?

 That I'm doing a great job as a mom (because sometimes I don't feel like I'm doing so well, so to hear someone else say that, it makes me think there's hope for me yet ;))

3. Do you buy cheap or expensive toilet paper?

  Cheap! I'm all about some labels but, not when it comes to household items 

4. Have you ever had a surprise party thrown for you? Or have you had one for someone else?

Yes, I had a surprise baby shower thrown for me right before my second son was born. FYI, surprises are NOT one of my favorite things

5. What is one material possession that you "can't live without"?

 I would have to say, my CHI flat Iron. I'm OCD when it comes to my hair, and I've often wondered how I even survived before I bought my CHI ;)

Well there ya have it! I like these Five question fridays! Hope everyone has a GREAT weekend!

Well, it seems that I've been doing a lot of diaper cakes lately, which is nice but, it would be even better if I was making a profit. Of course I know that I'm at least getting my name out there which is good. Hopefully soon, the orders will just start rolling in =). I've also opened my own Etsy store online, there is a link in the top right hand corner of this blog. If you haven't checked it out, you should!
  I'm not in much of a "blogging" mood at the moment, I think I should be in a "cleaning" mood actually but, I think I'm blogging as a way to put off the cleaning, he he. Anyway, I'm posting a picture of my latest "creation", I personally think it's the best yet!

Hope everyone is having a GREAT week so far!!

My first attempt at 5 Question Friday


1. 
Do you collect anything?
Let's see, besides clutter, I guess you could say I collect Wizard of Oz and Gone with the wind movie paraphernalia

2. Name 3 celebrities that you find good looking.

Only 3?! I guess my top 3 would have to be 
1.  Robert Pattinson

2. Johnny Depp


and...3. Chris Martin (from Coldplay)


yes, I know, very eclectic mix of celebrities but, what can I say, I'm a pretty eclectic person myself ;)


3. Do you have any scars? If so, what's the story behind it (them?)?

 Well, I am the type of person who trips going UP stairs so, yeah, I have some scars. I have one on the top of my foot where I dropped a piece of pottery when i was younger and a sliver of the pot got stuck there, I have my c-section scar of course, and I have a place on my knee from where I tripped going up the stairs at a friends house just recently, and I'm pretty sure that's going to be a scar.

4. What is a food that you like to eat, but others might think it's gross or weird? 

I mix my mashed potatoes with ketchup and green peas, HEY! Don't knock it till you try it! It's delicious ;)

5. Have you ever seen a tornado in real life?

No, luckily I have not.

Can I mix it up a little for ya?

 Well, I NEVER would have thought that this whole blog thing could be sooo complicated! There are SO many widgets, and templates, and blinkies, and badges, and other gadgets that are all foreign to my vocabulary.
  I thought I was starting this blog just to advertise my business Luca Bella, but, now that I've been wandering around reading other blogs, I think I can mix it up a little and advertise as well as blog about my life as a mom. I mean, who doesn't like to talk about themselves? I for one will take any chance I get ;) Just kiddin'......kinda
  It's not that my life is all that interesting or extraordinary, but, it is a little different than the typical "family life" that most people experience.  For instance, most young mothers aren't trying to raise their children under the same roof as their parents. Well, actually, I think that is fairly common in some cultures, and probably more common in our culture than I'm aware of but, as a little girl I don't remember it ever being a dream of mine to be 26 years old, a mother of two, separated, and still living at home with mom and dad.  It has however been a dream of mine, for as long as I can remember, to have my own business where I could make my own hours, as well as be crafty in the process. Although I don't know that Luca Bella will ever take off, and I know it will never make tons of money, at least I'm trying and actually having fun in the process.
