Repurpose That Old CD Into A Cupcake Stand

This is just the cutest idea ever and just in time for our Halloween festivities.  Just add a cherry on top!  It’s a fabulous DIY Craft and so original.  Alexa at The Swell Designer provides step-by-step instructions on how to make the stand out of an old CD and even how to make a display cupcake, but I think I’ll trade that out for a real one.  How about you?
