they are just 2-14inch cake bases and 2-12inch cake bases I got mine at walmart and I think they were around 6 bucks each for a pack of two!! I would say that after I payed for all my supplies for it, that it only cost me 20-25 bucks to make and best of all I can just take everything off since I just used double stick tape and start over with another theme!!!

Wow, Salsaman42, that's beautiful! What did you use between the glass? It almost looks like cut crystal...

the bases are round glass candle plates with purchased silicone "feet" epoxied on, the columns are 2 glass votive candleholders and the plates are 1/4 inch plate glass I had cut and edges pencil ground. Everything is joined together with clear silicone. The plates start at 7 inches square and get bigger in 2 inch multiples, 9", 11", 13", 15"

Here is mine...I wish I would have seen this thread a few weeks ago when I was trying to figure out how to make one! My dad ended up doing it with cut and painted plywood and pvc pipe.

My friend and I even made one from pink plastic margarita glasses and lime green plastic plates for a party. The ones with plates and vases or glasses are really fun and creeative.

Is there a way to make it with the styrafoam circles and attach it so its secure but also easy enough to redecorate with different paper? I don't really want to glue the paper down all the way so I can use it again with different themes. Any suggestions?

Mine's about 8 years old and I've only used it a couple times, but I'm bringing it out for a party in a few weeks. Martha Stewart had a similar one then, but was rather pricey, so I picked out the pieces @ Michael's and my dad made this one for me. I can't seem to find a pic with cupcakes on it, so it's "naked". (please ignore the mess on the table, I've been baking, lol)
