I love this!! I inherited Don's aunt's china and it's a little too dainty for my taste ... but would be a fantastic addition to this little serving piece!!
Hmm. I have to think about how I could do it to suit my taste. I prefer simplicity to whimsical. I think demitasse cups would work well leaving more surface area for cupcakes. Its all about the cupcakes.
Clever, very clever. Will "marinate" this idea! Check out my "stuff"!
I agree $299 for this item is a little steep! Looking forward to see the finished product!

I have a couple of items made this way presented as gifts..from DIYing friends...LOVE!
That's a great idea. I'm going to have to try this.
I get so excited about some of the upcoming OKL sales UNTIL I see the prices. You're really showing us here just how highly marked up some of the items are!
This is a great idea! I have all sorts of "one piece" china laying around.....just need to find that bird or finial.
Cheers,

Hi Linda! Its so much nicer to have one made out of plates that are important to you, and a fabulous topper, like the one in your picture. Great idea! Hope all is well friend,

I have seen some cute cake stands with a similar vibe...but the figurine at the top nails it. I agree the prices are not very nice in those sites. And truly good DIY is so much more fun and you get more emotionally attached to it than if you bought it. Great idea here!
I love this idea!!! This would make a great, unique gift! Thanks for the idea, Cuz.
Love the idea - perfect and interesting centerpiece for a party!!!! Have to go hunting now... :-)Thanks!
Great idea. I'd like to use graduated sizes with a saucer on top though, in his example the middle area is too tight. I imagine my husband trying to grab something from that middle section and the whole thing would go down big time:) Make sure to show us a pic if you make one!
I totally love the idea of using old plates that have some meaning. This would be so fun as the centrepiece for a table at a party!!
Very clever! I've seen this type of decor at Anthropologie and we all know it ain't cheap. What a cool idea :)
I am swooning over the swan. She is on my watch list & I intend to go to the mat to get her. THX!
Oh....this makes me want to scour through old boxes and see what I can find to recreate this! $299! Yowzer! Love your step by step of how to recreate it! So fun!
Linda, I love making pretty tablescapes when I entertain. I have cake stands galore. But I love that whimsical piece. My problem? Where in the world will I store all of these lovelies?
