A Cup-cake Stand give-a-way!


It's about time for another give-a-way here on my blog, and in honour of wedding season, I thought this cup-cake stand might a good place to start!

This little cup-cake stand was created especially for a photo-shoot for a wedding magazine that will be out on the stands on June 21st.  The concept behind the shoot was soft pinks and creams with romantic and pretty elements! I had a lot of fun thinking about inspiration, but not heaps of time to make the work.  Nevertheless, I created a series of cake plates and cupcake stands inspired by Posie Bouquets and a Folk Art Love Bird design that I silkscreened onto my wheel-thrown form with a ceramic underglaze.  They measure 6" across and 3.5 inches high, with just enough room to put 3 lovely cupcakes on them.  Perfect for an intimate tea party or pull it out as a stand for your brie cheese in the evening, this little cupcake stand is simple and lovely for any table. 

To enter the give-a-way just leave a comment and say 'hello'! I just forgot to mention that I will announce the randomly chosen winner on friday, June 11!

Good morning,
This post just brightened up my day (it's dark and raining where I am). Sometimes it's the simplest things {like cupcakes} that is all you need to get back on track. The cake stand is absolutely delightful. Thank you for the chance to win it. How lovely would it be to come down to breakfast in the morning and see it piled with muffins (no matter how dark it is outside).
