Guest Picks: Domes, Cloches and Stands, Oh My!
Pique guests' palates with food displayed grandly on a pedestal, under a cloche — or both
I have noticed that showcasing anything by placing it onto a pedestal or covering it with glass cloche makes it special. I went on the hunt, seeking a variety of sizes, shapes and styles for domes, cloches and footed stands for all one's entertaining needs. — Sasha from Lemonade Makin' Mama
