Brilliantly Creative DIY Cake Stands

April 18, 2018 by Bethany Sy

I think it’s safe to say that DIY Cake Stands are the BEST because there’s such instant gratification (for the most part). Typically it’s not a long drawn-out process like a furniture build or painting trim in a sunroom. And often you can find the parts you need for a DIY Cake Stand (or cupcake stand!) at a thrift store or flea market!

I’ve gathered up a TON of ideas for inspiring DIY Cake Stands from around the interwebs. If you’re wanting to pin an idea to Pinterest, be sure to click on the image or link to be taken to the corresponding tutorial and pin from the source.

And be sure to tell me which one is your ABSOLUTE FAVE in the comments below!

    These are all beautiful, I have the one with the glass dome & last Christmas I put little Christmas decorations in it & placed in on a large platter with little sweets & treats around it to have after our Christmas lunch, it was a big hit. As for the ones you can buy,i I love number 5, that gorgeous green is just heaven , unfortunately it doesn’t ship to Australia boo-hoo.

    I’ve pinned the geometric diamond ones more times than I can even tell you. I LOVE cake stands. That’s probably a given… but someday I’ll have a collection to display, and room to display them!

    These are all lovely, and as a collector of cake stands, but not an eater of cake, (food allergies, sigh) I could find many uses for them around my house. I really like the trio from A Beautiful Mess, the novelty of them caught my fancy. These would be fun at a circus themed party. Great post!

    That gorgeousness from lazy guy DIY… I’m not really a cake stand girl (its an unnecessary step between baking and eating which slows down the process)… but I’d put that in my kitchen in a heartbeat.

    I love the Geometric cake stand. There is really a neat job behind it, with some research.
