A holiday feast for the eyes–and no impact on your thighs

Here’s a holiday dessert that is completely guilt free (unless you have some weird paper eating fetish).

I made it by layering cardboard cake rounds between wooden spools that I painted white. I created a base out of a round tin that you can actually open to store little bits and bobs inside.

After that, it was simply a matter of layering different laces, garlands, lots of everyday elements and holiday ornaments.

  1. Fantastic. I bet you could look at this several times and see something new each time. As a miniature maker, I’m always looking for interesting ways to display my collections.This is a really nice idea for display.
