Hey everyone~
I just finished my crystal fountain cake stand. It is a 7-tier acrylic cake stand with real hanging crystals. There are 2 porcelain figurines~the one on the top is actually the cake topper so it will sit on top of the cake, and the one at the bottom is a working fountain, which will be on at the wedding.
I bought an 8-tier acrylic cake stand off ebay, and I drilled holes along the edges to add the crystal garlands. I used one of the crystals to gage the distance between each hole, which I marked before I started drilling to make sure they were evenly spaced. I then used 6-10mm jump rings to add the crystals along the edges. I also got the porcelain figurines on ebay, and the mirror platform under the fountain is actually an upside-down vase I found at the LA Flower Market.
The main center stand will hold a 6, 10, and 14 inch cake, and the four sides are going to hold two 8-inch cakes (back) and two 10-inch cakes (front).
Now all I need is a baker for the cakes!
