I have a wedding cake for June and the bride wants the 4 tiers of her cake all separated and on top of glass/acrylic graduated stands. She said that she don't care what I use as stands just as long as you can see through it So I've been out hunting to find some ideas but end up empty. I bought some large glass vases in various sizes at a yard sale but once I put a cake on top of it, I didnt' feel comfortable leaving it there. I plan to put the largest tier directly on the table and elavate the other 3 tiers at different height? Any ideas on what I could use or create that would be stable enough for the cake. Please remember that I have very limited skills with tools…lol...The wedding will be outside and its all basket weave tiers with calla lilies on top of each tiers…Please help

the first thing that came to mind is those clear diplay boxes that people put their collectibles in, like basketballs, model cars, etc. I found one website called casesforcollectibles dot com, but there may be cheaper places out there. A car case is $20 while a soccer ball case is $30. It looks like they offer discounts when ordering multiples.

Okay..thanks...I thought about that but I assumed that it would be more than I wanted to spend to buy them. I will check them out though and see how much they are. Any other ideas or creations?????????????
