easy DIY cake stand ruffle


Looking for a way to add a little fancy to your party? Or maybe looking for a way to make your traditional cake stand look a little different for this party? This easy cake stand ruffle is a great way to add some color and fun to a cheap (cough, cough... very cheap) grocery store cake stand.


First, pull out that crepe paper left overs, or any crepe paper streamer and sew a stitch through it about a third of the way from one side to gather your crepe paper.


Next, all I did was used double sided clear tape to easily just tape the crepe paper around the edge of my cake stand. The double sided tape makes for an easy clean up, and won't harm your cake stand - hooray!


You can leave your cake stand as is, or you can add some ribbon around the edges. I found that adding the ribbon helped straighten my crepe paper out (it was kind of uneven left alone) and added a fun two toned color combination! Have fun!

  1. What a pretty way to add some fun to a cakestand. I like how you can add two colors with the crepe paper and ribbon. Thanks for sharing!
