Once the glass is cut, it’s time to make a simple stand using threaded rods and a cake board.

Paul shows you how to cover the bottom tier in panels with a decorative wood grain effect.

To spice up the bottom tier, Paul adds some vertical wooden panels and creates a lovely “I love you” message in French on the front.
