I made this for the Wilton cake decorating contest. The stand is a real lamp stand, but the shade is a cake baked in a bowl and covered with fondant. the finial is fondant. I painted it with luster dust.
The lamp stand has a masonite cake circle screwed onto it. Then I just set the cake on top. Thanks for all the nice comments, everyone! Kinda eases the disappointment of not placing!
You have the best style going! May I suggest getting a different background for the photos? I found my work looked better when I did that. Awesome creativity you have.
have to agree with vickymacd........I kinda thought you did that on purpose......I just assumed it was sitting on a desk or a sofa table or something....I was sitting here thinking you were just brilliant for thinking to take the photo with it like that LOL....this is one of the most awesome creations I've ever seen
Growing up my Grandma had the prettiest tiffany lamp sitting on her little reading table. Seeing this made me think of her! I love it! And I thought it looked just right with the background!

Thanks! You just made my day! I guess I really should find a different background than my dining room table...
Wow That is awesome!
That's GORGEOUS!!!! You should send it into one of the cake decorating magazines.
I love the dragon fly design in the shade...wonderful decorating work!
Such a clever design!

One word...fabulous!
Wow, this is wonderful!
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!! You could put it on the table and everyone would say "Hey, where's the cake?"
I am shocked that you didn't place-there must have been some spectacular cakes entered
I disagree! The backdrop makes the lamp look right at home on the table! But for judging, yes, another background. Wonderful cake!!
