My Cake Stands!











I had so much fun making these cake stands, although I can't take credit for the inspiration, I was looking at http://hollydoodledesigns.com blog yesterday and saw a tutorial she did I believe in April 09 on how she made these cake stands, soooooo I thought I have to give it a try, hers came out much better, Holly has such beautiful millenery and fabric but I used what I could find, I do think they are so sweet , I made them with wooden candle sticks and the boxes that you can get at the craft store, the stand with the glitter, I cut out thick paper in a scalloped design and glued it around the edge, then just painted and glittered it like the rest. For the full instructions you can visit Holly and don't forget about my giveaway, todays the last day to enter (;

They are beyond cute! From the picture, I would never have been able to tell they weren't real cake stands! Love them, you did a great job. Now I'm off to get the instructions. I definitely need to try this.

I hope you are having an amazing week! We are going today to pick up wooden screen doors for the front and back doors. Why doors get me so excited I have no idea but I can't wait to see them up. :)
