What Types of Arts or Crafts do you Handcraft?

I make personalized Diaper Cakes for baby shower events. I also administer and design a website and most recently a blog, showing readers how I make my creations from scratch. All diaper cakes are hand-crafted and made to order!

Do you Sell Wholesale or Retail?

I first started making diaper cakes when I was looking for a unique present for my daughter's baby shower. I searched online for some ideas and I came up with diaper cakes. Then I figured that in order to make it truly unique, I should make it myself. So I found some step by step tutorials to work with and the rest is history. I fell in love with making diaper cakes since then.

Over the years, every time there was a baby shower event, my present would be the diaper cake. Soon it caught on and I developed a bit of a following. So I decided to start selling my beautiful creations from the heart. And that's what I am doing now.

My website is called Bev's Diaper Cakes at http://www.bevsdiapercakes.com and you can link directly to the blog from the main page as well.
