My husband just finished constructing the stand and I am sooooo excited! I still have to sand it and paint it, but it's almost done!

The one thing I did switch was not putting that middle cross like wood thing on the top of each box (sorry, I don't know what it'd be called). I put thin rubber stoppers on the bottom corner of each box which prevents any possible sliding of the boxes when they are stacked. I eliminated the cross wood in the center because I like the idea of mixing up the position(s) of each box (sometimes move them all into the corner so it looks 'step like' - or alternating the boxes from straight to diagonal...)

Quick question though - any idea on how to get the ribbon to stay so straight and clean? Do you attach it with Velcro or something? I like the idea of switching out the ribbon to match the theme of the event.

I have a cupcake/wedding order coming up in August and am so excited to use this stand!!!

I'd like to see what this stand would look like if it were only 4 inches tall instead of 6. And about how much did it cost to make it?

That's a very nice idea. I could surely suggest something similar in our bakery.

Hi Antonia, thank you so much for sharing this post.  I plan on making this myself.  I have one question...the picture which shows the underside of the 6" (top) box...why does it have 6 screws?  It there something on the top that is screwed on?  Thank you.

Congratulations! I haven't been on in years myself.  Changed jobs,  Opened a shop, closed a shop, didn't move, but also had a baby.  It's been pretty crazy the past few years.
