Cupcake Display in the Works!


Just how CREATIVE is my husband?  Check out the newly renovated Cupcake Tower he has designed for the weddings we have in the next few weeks! He had made the Tower for the wedding shown in an earlier post, and since its debut, it has been used for several other happy occasions.  But one thing always bothered me. . . the Tower was always fully assembled.   Ready for action, yes.  A beast to store, YES!   

It also meant that the lucky delivery person had to maneuver this bad boy through sometimes narrow hallways, and then precariously situate it in the back of their awaiting coach.  Okay, sometimes it was a li'l hatchback - get the picture?   The result was that part of the Tower got tweaked, the wood split, and the weakened top was eventually taken off to avoid further damage.  So I got to thinking. . .  

  
What if we made a new similar structure that could be dismantled for delivery?  And further. . . 


What if we could switch it up so that for smaller events, there were only 3 levels?

Enter Tom, the wizard of wood and tools and all things hammerable.   (Seriously, Martha Stewart has nothing on this man!) It took a few prototypes to get exactly what he was after, but just how amazing is this!?    A few coats of protective coating and this baby will make its grand entrance adorned with ribbon and treats.   Just wait for the transformation!   ~ S
