Shabby Chic Cake Stand Upgrade
I saw a beautiful cake stand in a store the other day and it was just charming. When I came closer to see the price I was in shock! I decided to give an upgrade to my crystal cake stand and I love how it looks!
Materials
Cake stand
Jewelry wire
Crystal beads
Drop crystal beads
Scissors
Marker
Measuring tape
Glue gun
First Beads
Put 8 crystal beads in your jewelry wire.
Drop Bead
Now put one of your drop beads in the wire, insert a little bead and return the wire through the drop bead.
Loop
Put 8 more crystal beads after the drop bead and make a little loop with your wire.
Repeat
Repeat all the steps. You'll notice you'll have your beads in a zig zag shape. After doing this for 9 times (or more if your cake stand is bigger), join the ends by twisting the wires together and leaving another loop on top.
Cut the extra wire.
Glue
Divide your cake stand perimeter in 9 and mark each with your marker. Glue the loops to the marks and let the glue set. Turn your cake stand around to see your beautiful design!
