Emergency Cake Stand

 The week before last I had a semi panicked phone call on the Thursday, from my friend who was getting married on the Saturday. 

The person making her cake stand had let her down all of a sudden and couldn't do it. Leave it with me, I said. 

Luckily a month or so before I'd been given an old table. Well two old tables, but one had some very interestingly turned legs. I thought they'd do nicely. 

So I cut two legs into sections and some rounds of ply descending in size to make the five tiered stand. 

I was worried that it was a little too rustic, but once decorated it looked really lovely and showed off the cakes really nicely. I was a great wedding, and nice to have a tiny part in making it run smoothly.

  1. Looks great. I am sure lots of cake makers and cake shops will buy them.

    1. I wasn't really thinking of selling them really. Maybe I should!
