I am going to my cousin's wedding shower and we bought her towels off of her registry. I wanted to make them into the wedding cake similar to those below.

Does anyone have any tips/instructions for this? Does anyone have any other pictures of these? TIA!

I've made a couple of diaper cakes for baby showers and I highly suggest having some one help you. They can hold the towels together as you add layers before you tie the big ribbon around the middle. I had to tie each layer seperately with thin ribbon and then one large ribbon on the middle of the outer layer (as pictured) to cover up the small ones! I hope that makes sense.

I agree with Whitters20. While I haven't made any cakes (towel or otherwise), I know people who have made the diaper ones, and they mentioned the same thing.. it's better with two. :) But I really like the towel ones! Prior to this, I'd only seen the diaper cakes. Such a great idea.
