DIY Project: Beer Cake

(Source)

Okay guys, we don't want to leave you out of the crafting fun. So here's a fun beer cake to make for your groom for the bachelor party or to sip on as you're getting ready on the big day. Now, we know you're generally not a super crafty bunch so we're gonna keep this DIY very simple:

Step 1: Go out and buy a case of your groom's favorite cans of beer. While you're out, head to a craft store and pick up some ribbon that's about an inch wide. Also, find some duct tape. We know, this project just redeemed itself!

Step 2: Look around the house for a few random pieces of cardboard-- preferably NOT from a greasy pizza box. Cut three circles with diameters of 12-inches, 9-inches, and 6-inches out of the cardboard. These are rough measurements-- don't try to hard.

Step 3: Start with the largest piece of cardboard and arrange a bunch of beers on it in a circle. Use some duct tape to secure the beer to the cardboard. Then, arrange the ribbon around this layer and secure it with Scotch tape if you've got it -- otherwise, duct tape works)

Step 4: Then take the medium piece of cardboard and use duct tape to secure it to the beers on the bottom tier you've just created. Again, arrange a bunch of beers on this circle and use duct tape to secure the beer to this circle too. Again, circle it with ribbon.

Step 5. Follow the same instructions for the smallest circle and then top the cake with one beer. 

Step 6: Feel free to decorate with whatever you've got-- leftover wrapping supplies, drink umbrellas, etc. Your groom will totally appreciate the gesture.

Step 7: Bring your groom to the beer cake* and enjoy!

*This detail is important! Definitely bring your groom to the cake and NOT vice versa. We're 97% sure if you try to transport this bad boy you will end up with exploded beer cans on pavement and a very confused groom.
