This is an ideal cupcake or pastry stand, and it is turned from lovely pecan wood. Now what can be more yummy than that? Just looking at the natural colors, with some nice spalting lines makes this a really nice piece. The outside diameter is 9 ¼” and the inside is 8 5/8”. There is a nice lip to keep everything in place. The base diameter is 3 ½” and the height is 2 ¼”. Use it with confidence as the wood was sealed with food grade walnut oil and then the finishing was done with a walnut oil/shellac mixture. Using this combination gives the stand a nice hard long lasting natural finish. On one area of the edge you will find a tad bit of natural edge that I just felt like I should leave in place. 1Dec19 SDP62 $32.50 Free standard shipping within Continental United States.

This might be considered a little brother or sister to the other stands I have turned.  Might even be a cousin of the smaller variety.  Anyway you want to look at it this stand is really good looking.  Turned from beautiful pecan wood, this particular piece of wood came from a crotch on the tree.  I personally think that accounts for a lot of the natural color with the spalting in it.  You will even find what I can a bit of “wormholishness” in the base which adds a rustic appeal to it.  The top diameter is 7 ¼” and the base is 3 ¼” in diameter.  The height of the stand is 2”.  The wood was wet sanded with walnut oil and then sanded on down through the necessary grits.  Then the wood was finished with a mixture of walnut oil and shellac.  This combination gives the stand a nice hard long lasting natural finish.  Grab this while it’s here.  9Aug19  SDP61  $27.50  Free standard shipping within Continental United States.  All other locations contact me with zip code for shipping costs.

This stand out of beautiful pecan wood is a first.  I have done several pastry/cupcake stands, but this one has a dish or tray on the bottom.  Hopefully more like this will be coming.  The natural colors of this wood make it a great piece to have anywhere in your house.  The top diameter is 7 ¾”, the bottom diameter is 6”.  The total height is 4 ¼”.  The depth of the bottom dish or tray is ½”.  The wood was sealed with food grade walnut oil and then finished with straight shellac.  Using a combination like this gives the sand a nice hard long lasting natural finish.  5May19  SDP60  $38.50  Free shipping within Continental United States

This will be a wonderful addition to anybody’s home.   As most cooks and bakers know it’s all about presentation.  Now picture this stand with 4 or 5 cupcakes on it.  Or some other tasty morsel!  I was able to leave a little bit of natural edge on it.  Also I burned 3 lines into the base for decorative purposes only.  The diameter of the top is 8 ½” and the base measures at 3 ¾”.  The height of the stand is 2 ¾”.  I thought about getting some cupcakes and using them in the photos but the only problem with doing that is nothing would get done in the shop until I ate them all.  Sorry.  The wood was sealed with food grade walnut oil and then finished with a walnut oil based wax.  This combination gives the stand a nice hard long lasting natural finish.  20Nov17  SDP50  $30.00 and $12.00 S&H

Pecan wood is an absolutely beautiful wood whose natural colors do not need any help from us.  After you take a look at the light and darker colors you will agree with me.  Though I am calling it a cupcake or pasty stand, you just go ahead and put whatever you want on it.  You will find I burned a line in the rim area for decoration as well as a couple in the base area.  Though they were reinforced with clear glue there is some minor cracks that are going no where.  Just kinda helps with the rustic appeal of the piece.  The diameter is 8 ½” with a height of 2 ¼” and a base diameter of 3 ¼”.  The wood was sealed with food grade walnut oil and then finished with a walnut oil based wax.  This gives the stand a nice hard long lasting natural finish.  It also allows you to still feel the grain in the wood.  22Nov17  SDP51  $30.00 and $12.00 S&H

This stand is certainly beautiful and useful at the same time.  Now how can you beat that?  I don’t think you can.  There is a small amount of natural edge on the lip that adds some rustic appeal to the piece.  The line that I burned into the base area is decorative only.  The wood has a little bit of the usual natural flaws that I prefer to leave as I think that makes the stand even more desirable.  The wood was first sealed with food grade walnut oil and then finished with a mixture of walnut oil and shellac.  Using a combination such as this gives the stand a nice hard long lasting natural finish.  The diameter is 9 ¼” with a base diameter of 5” and a height of 3 ¼”.  Don’t pass this one up!  3Jun18  SDP54  $30.00 and $12.00 S&H

This delightful looking cupcake/pastry stand is really good looking.  There was a crack that occurred during drying that I decided to do something with other than ditching the piece of wood.  So, I first filled it with coffee grounds and clear glue, then added crushed turquoise on top of that.  To me that made it even more attractive and certainly utilized a piece of wood that some would have tossed.  After the filling was done and then all the sanding, the wood was sealed with food grade walnut oil.  After that the finishing was done with a walnut oil based wax.  This gives the stand a nice hard long lasting natural finish.  And, it is totally renewable with olive oil when needed.  Care instructions are included.  The diameter is 8 ¼” with a height of 2 ½”.  The base diameter is 4”.  5Jun18  SDP55  $30.00 and $11.00 S&H
