I posted it this last year, and am reposting it today in honor of the brand new cake stand I bought at Hobby Lobby.
Toots birthday cake needs a black cake stand. Like this one:

But alas I do not have any of those. Nor do I have time to order them online and get them here by...well today. And the three stores I looked at didn't have black cake stands. Not even Target. Doesn't Target have everything?
So while I was at Target I picked up this black plate and bowl for just over $4:

With a little hot glue I have a cake stand:

Not quite as cute as the others, but functional and it HERE!

Okay, I am in LOVE with cake stands. I don't know why. I think your bowl/plate cake stand is AWESOME! Good thinking!
Again thanks for the bowl/plate idea. I made mine a while back after reading that post. I love it! And use it so often. Even passed the idea on to others who ask where I got my cake plate from.
Great idea!
I love it.

This is so clever. I didn't catch it the first time around. Thanks for sharing.
What a GREAT idea! I love you for this!
You are my HERO! Do you know I have been looking for two identical cake stands forever? The Twinkies NEED cake stands for their birthday cakes. I have always loved cake stands but couldn't justify the purchase...now I NEED them and can't find them anywhere. Now I have a good fall back solution. Did I say you're my HERO?
Love it!Super cute!
