Latest Obsession: Cake Stands

Okay, so my latest obsession (yes, I have quite a few of those) is cake stands. I know so exciting, right?Although I looooove a good cake stand, they aren't for everyone hence why I was being a little sarcastic. I think I got this weird yearning from my mother although she would never directly admit it. She too is a huge cake stand fanatic and has quite a few I must say! I don't know how she came to love them so much, but I'm sort of glad she does. Of course, most of hers are glass, antique and absolutely gorgeous and I'm, well, jealous. Here are some swoon-worthy ones from across the internets.

I actually received this beauty below for Christmas from my amazing boyfriend. Its absolutely gorgeous, but heavy as I don't know what. It is solid marble and looks lovely on my kitchen counter as of now.


So if you've seen this baby on Crate & Barrel and have been eye balling it for some time then just get it already! You will not be disappointed! So what do you think about my latest obsession? Do you share it with me or is it just not your style?

I LOVE cake stands and plates. I inherited a beautiful clear glass one from my grandmother, but am a big fan of milk glass and tinted milk glass too. There's something about them, isn't there?

I have a few clear ones my mom gave me also. And, I LOVE milk glass!! I've been starting to collect hobnail milk glass and recently came across a beautiful Fenton hobnail milk glass ruffled cake stand on Etsy that I am dying to get!
