Crazy How I Can Be Hooked On These.....
Yes, it is true, I am "Hooked on Cake Stands". These are about half of my collection, the rest are still boxed away in storage. Gone are the days when I can afford to hunt these gems down. Plus how many cake stands do you need really???
I just think they're beautiful...
These are some of my favorites a "Hobnail", white from Fenton, and pink from Smith Glass.
Or the "Original" design from Smith Glass Co....
I also have several milk glass version of this design.
Or these delightful "Trellis" from Smith Glass...
Or the most well known "Thistle" design,

I love cake stands too - the turquoise colored one on the bottom right really speaks to me - absolutely gorgeous. I only have one of my own - clear glass!
Wow! That's quite a collection. I would have those pretties in every room of the house holding something! Cake stands are fabulous decorations, use them girl!

Those are pretty! I've always wanted a cake stand, but I wouldn't know what to do with it. I don't make cakes and they are a bit breakable to have around with a 4 year old.
Those are all just beautiful!!

I think they're awesome and you could display many things on them if you wanted too..., I've seen some with shells for example.
Your collection of cake stands just took my breath away! Wow! And these aren't even all of them? I'm amazed.
They're all sooo beautiful. How do you ever choose which one to use when you bake a cake? :-)
so pretty! are they just for cakes or do you use them for decorating in other parts of your house?
Wow! Those are beautiful! What a great collection.
OH!!!! A fellow cake stand lover! I think cake stands are so pretty..I would love to have a place like that to display a collection! Lucky you!

I love the jewel tones, so pretty
Oh my, what a beautiful collection! I love that you shared the pattern names. It would be interesting to hear more about where you found them and how long it took you to find so many varied ones.
Fabulous!
Wow, I love your cake stands. I have a few cake plates, maybe because they are on short legs. Anyway, I am guessing you live in an older home with the leaded glass doors. Beautiful collection!
I am in love with that milk glass one in the top picture!! L-O-V-E love!
AWESOME collection... I love them though sadly I only have one.
wowza... You do have A LOT! Of all things to collect, I think it's very interested. I love cake stands, too. I think it's something about the shape. Sadly, I rarely bake a cake. :) I bought my first one right before Christmas, if I found another one at a thrift shop I would probably be temped to buy it.
beautiful collection..i can see so many seasonal decorations on top of them.
These are great! I love your collection. Thank you for checking out my blog, as I am so glad I found yours. I LOVE it!
Wow. That's a lot of cake stands! I only have one. :( I occasionally wish I had a few more for different occasions. I guess I'll keep a lookout.
Thanks for visiting my blog. I LOVE your cake stands and going to keep my eyes out for some pretty ones, too. What a beautiful collection you have. Thanks for sharing!

ps... The patience comes and goes... the humor keeps me going with those 5 year olds.
Oh they are fabulous, I've been meaning to buy one for ages - I think I will now :)
I love it...great collection! Just looking at those stands makes me want to bake some cakes. This is a wonderful post. Happy weekend.

What a beautiful collection. I love cake stands but only have one....now I feel deprived! Thanks so much for sharing...I enjoyed looking.
Hi there Miss Suzy Homemaker!
What a nice surprise to find you. Your blog is darling and very inspiring. I too love cake stands! I have not once ever used my (3) stands for cake though. I use them to just add height to different displays and arrangements around the house. You have a beautiful collection and a wonderful blog. I will look forward to stopping by often.

I just love your collection! You must be the one that always outbids me ;)
great blog!

What a gorgeous collection!
Now I don't feel so bad about having, say, eleven or so. Your collection is wonderful. Let's put some cakes on each one of them and have a party.
