Multi-purpose Cake Pop Stand

Sending off my first package of cake pops to a friend out in California for her birthday. Found memory boxes (intended for storing photos and the like) on sale at Michaels and thought they'd make for good, sturdy boxes for shipping cake pops and then for serving as a cake pop stand once received. Covered the lid with decorative paper and punched holes in it for the pops.

Then  I attached floral foam to the bottom of the lid to provide cushioning for shipping and to secure the pops once inserted in the stand.

Here's how I hope the cake pops will look once re-assembled (fingers crossed) ... We shall see. 

In the meantime, here are some close-ups...

Anxious to hear what state they're in when they arrive. And with that, I'm off to decorate more lids as I have many more to ship in the weeks to come. Until next time...
