HOW TO MAKE A MARBLE CAKE STAND FOR LESS THAN £20!

In case you’ve been living under a rock for the past year then you would know that marble is fast becoming one of the prettiest trends around, problem is it can sometimes be a little pricey. But we’ve got some good news for you! If you’re looking to include a little marble into your wedding or bridal shower then you can create this easy cake stand on a budget! This entire DIY costs less than £20 to make and the results really look anything but cheap…

YOU WILL NEED:

A round marble board (we used this one) // A glue gun or clear silicon (to be honest I would go for the silicon, it worked much better to secure everything together and was more sturdy // Gold spray paint (we used Rustoleum) // Something round and wide for the base (We used an Osma sewer connection! I know that sounds awful ha but it was brand new from a hard ware store and did the job perfectly!) //

STEP 1:

Start by spray painting what will be the base of your case stand, allow to fully dry and then add a second coat until that is completely dry to handle.

STEP 2:

Flip your marble board upside down, and place your base directly onto the centre of it. Next grab yourself a pen and draw around the outline so you’ve got the exact place of the centre ready for when you need to work quickly!

STEP 3:

Apply clear silicon to the edge of your base and then push hard against the marble, placing it exactly where you drew your outline! You’ll want to do this quickly and then allow the silicone to fully set.

Finally flip the whole thing back over and reveal your brand new cake stand! Now all you need to do is add a delicious cake on top! xx
