I have been looking at lots of pictures in the galleries here, and I've seen some beautiful cake stands! I was just wondering where you all get them...

Here are a couple of places online that sell great cake stands.

I especially love the cake stands from weddingfads.com.

I have gotten 3 of my silver cake plateaus from Ebay--specific seller is buy4lessusa
Beautiful and reasonable.
My Wilton garden cake stand I also got from Ebay--brand new and only paid $99.00.
My husband calls me the Ebay queen. Before I buy it online anywhere, I check Ebay but be sure to check your shipping to see if it really is a good deal. Alot of Ebayers make quite a bit of profit from shipping.

I forgot to mention that there is a seller on ebay called wedding_cakeware who has beautiful cake stands for a reasonable price.

I hire mine from my local supply shop

Yes check out Ebay. I just won 2 from buy4lessusa. I did not receive them as yet so I can not tell you the condition, but the prices was the cheapest I have ever seen. I am talking under $40, but check the shipping first. I Won a 12" and a 14". I wanted the 18" but someone kept out bidding me. I also get stands from Joanne when they have their 50% coupon. I usually print out a few and the entire family gets one and we each buy an item go to the car and head back into the store. Since it is only 50% off of one item.

I am forever on the unique cake stand mission. I've found some intriguing things along the way, and I hope that my business picks up enough to utilize these stands. I've found some at TJ Maxx, Hobby Lobby, and the Flower Factory, all reasonably priced. I am now on a mission for an oval stand, and if I don't find one, I think I may end up having one made!!

Twindees--
You will be happy with the ones that you got from buy4lessusa. I have already used mine about 6 times.

Ellepal - there is an oval stand on Cakestands.com!

I am using a plant stand I spray painted gloss white..It's under my wedding cake posted here..It is 13" across and works fine..

Mac,

Thanks. I can't wait for them to get here. (Tomorrow I hope) I am sooooo excited.

CKelly - That's a great idea. Now I am going to be on the look out of a nice plant stand. Thank you
