Cake stands are great for presentation, especially come summer entertaining time.  Sarah Gunn shows us how you can make one inexpensively!

Materials:

– small and large wooden plaques

– wooden table legs

– wood glue

– paint

– varnish

– craft paper or wax paper

How To:

– Centre the table leg on the base and glue in place.

– Once that has set, glue the top to the wooden leg.

– Once dry, apply at least 2 coats of paint.

– Finish with a coat of varnish.

Note: Paint is not food grade so set a piece of co-ordinating scrapbook paper, cut to size, on the top of the stand (or a piece of wax paper) before setting food on the stand.
