DIY Pedestal Plate Stand

For a long time I have seen so many cute DIY pedestal cake stands and I thought I would create my own version since I have so many random small glass containers left over from our wedding decorations.  I chose not to call my cake stands since I do not plan to use them to hold cakes or desserts.  Mine are just for decoration.



It was fun experimenting with all the different kinds of containers I had on hand.




Don't mind the plates, these are temporary visual aids until I find that perfect little plate during my next thrift store run.




I also found fun little decorations to add in the bases.  I glued the bases on with epoxy.


I added one of my grandmother's handmade doilies that my mom had recently given to me.  I like how this one turned out.








Hope you're having a great fall weekend~

Linking to these amazingly creative PARTIES!
