An Unforgettable Wedding Gift

One of the most remarkable and beautiful wedding gifts I have ever seen was created by one of my sisters for another sister's wedding.  She built a pristine "wedding cake" from white towels and decorated it with ribbons, held in place with pearl pins, and hid a cd in one of the layers,  not that anything additional was needed.  The "cake" was such a work of art it stole the show from the real cake!  Everyone wanted to know who had made it, how long it took, etc, and no-one with a camera passed up a chance for a snapshot of it.

Creating a towel cake can be as simple or as complicated as you need it to be.  It is easy to make it unique with your own special touches and add personal touches that will make it an unforgettable part of any wedding or shower.  

The basics of what you'll need:

2 Bath Towels (white or cream or wedding theme colors)
2 Hand Towels
2 Wash Cloths
Small Wedding Rings
Ribbon, lots of narrow and perhaps some wide types
Small Silk Roses
Pins , plain and pearl-drop, round
Strings of pearls, assorted trims, wedding favors, plastic rings, etc.
Cake Plate on Pedestal
Topper of choice
