♥Our beautiful stands are hand made to order from solid, quality hardwood. You will receive 3 pieces the approximate sizes are 8", 16" and 24". Pieces are not attached to each other. Each piece is approx. 4.5-4.75" high. ♥The stand will hold approx. 62 standard sized cupcakes OR it comfortably holds a 6" or smaller cake on top and approx. 52 cupcakes around the bottom 2 tiers. ♥Please note our pieces are made from NATURAL wood. Wood grain variation will exist from piece to piece. Knot and natural wood cracks/slits are to be expected. We also STAIN our stands, we do NOT paint them. Wood grain WILL show through the stain to some degree. Our whitewash is an antique (off white) wash. It will NOT be bright white like a paint. ♥We recommend using a barrier between food and the stand such as parchment paper or cupcake liners to ensure the stand is easy to clean.
