diy cake stand

pretty cakes stands, like this one, are my weakness.

they add such a charming touch to any event. if you are in a pinch {or just want to have something to leave behind for the hostess}, you can make your own  + it only takes a few minutes!

supplies:

thrifted plate {goodwill, salvation army sttore, etc}

glass candlestick

permanent adhesive (like e6000)

ruler

sharpie

how to:

1. find the halfway point on the back of your plate and place a dot using a sharpie.

2. coat the rim of the candlestick with adhesive

3. adhere candlestick to back of plate using a slight bit of pressure.

4. let dry upside down for recommended drying time.

5. enjoy your lovely cake stand!

{note} you can also make two tier cake stands using one small plate and one dinner plate. just make sure the base is good + sturdy. you can also use a drinking glass or tulip shaped ice cream sundae dish for the base.
