What was your inspiration?

My BFF is having an owl themed Halloween bunco night and I thought it would be fun to make her something funky for the party! Cupcake tiers are so trend right now! She does not have to use it for cupcakes. She can put any kind of appetizer, breads, veggies, candy or even fun little trinkets on each tier. I hope she likes it!!!

What are you most proud of?

It is such a simple project - pride would be involved only in getting it all together and completing the project!! What fun it was!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Have fun collecting your plates and dividing items - the more tiers the better, I think! I saw some today at a craft show with only two tiers! But I think the more the merrier - wouldn't six tiers be fun?

I have tried this but cannot find the right glue. What did you use? I really like the theme part for any occasion.

CA glue - my husband just happened to have it in his workshop but I think you can find it any place.
