In this video I’m making a tiered cake stand with epoxy resin and building up a really pretty pattern across the layers. I walk you through the whole make like I’m at the bench with you—mixing, colouring, and getting that “ooh that’s nice” look without it turning into a muddy mess. It’s very much a play session (because honestly, that’s when the best ideas happen), but I’m still keeping an eye on the practical bits so the finished stand actually works as a stand. I also point you to the bits that make the project easier—things like the cake stand fittings, pour cups for controlled patterns, and the pigments I reach for when I want softer, whimsical colour. If you’re new to resin or you’ve had a few “why is it doing THAT?” moments, this is a good one to copy because it’s a straightforward build with loads of room to make it your own. Let’s go play!
