    My wife and I really like the old worn out look... So I tried to make it look like it's old. The tiles will eventually wrap around the bottom stand like the canopy, It just wont fit through the front door with that on there.
    This stand measures 48"x48"x84" It's big. Pictures don't do it justice...
    Thanks for looking.

    3/4"...wow. With the bow I figured 1" at least acrylic. It should be beautiful when you get it on the stand!
