Just so you know I don't go to Goodwill EVERY DAY. A lot of my post's start out with "At Goodwill" or something along those lines, but most of the time three or more posts come from the same Goodwill trip. Just a disclaimer. =)
On that note...I was at Goodwill the other day when I saw a set of two random glass bases. I have no idea what they were suppose to be for. They don't have a regular shaped hole for a candle, so they couldn't have been candle holders..? Curious.
When I saw them I thought I could turn them into stands for some cool plates. So I held onto them for a week or so until I decided to make some cake (or whatever) stands with a plate/bowl set that I had and some E-6000. After I did this with the silver tray here, I couldn't stop!
Turned out great! Love the color. I'm going to have to get some of that E-6000 stuff. Can you get it at Michael's? Great job!

ReplyDeleteI love this idea, the stands turned out so cute!
who would have ever thought to do that? (well you of course). great idea. now i will be on the lookout for glass candle holders
ReplyDeleteCute project! If you're still in need of some E6000, you can find it on the Eclectic Products ecommerce site (excelbuyonline[dot]com).
ReplyDeleteCool!

ReplyDeleteUmmm, you have another copy cat on your hands! Fabulous idea!
ReplyDeletevery cute! I love the bowl one!
ReplyDeleteThose are simply gorgeous! What a great idea! I hope to stumble across a great find like that so I can re-create this myself. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI love this! I love the pattern!! They look amazing!
ReplyDeleteThey turned out amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteYou have inspired me to try it!!
Think I want to make a Halloween stand!
Thank you!!
Those are amazing. What a great idea!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! Great idea!
ReplyDeleteamazing idea! i've used brass candlesticks & the old brass trays with a handle, then spray painted them black. nothing like a pedastal! E-6000 is my hero! hah!
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing!
Wonderful!! What a clever idea!
ReplyDeleteAdorable! Just found your blog today, thought the cake stands were a great idea. You will not believe it, but I went to a local thrift store at lunch, got the same glass base for 50 cents! Couldn't believe it when I saw it sitting on the shelf. Now I just have to get some of the E6000!. Thanks for the great idea
ReplyDeleteWould you share the secret of where the plates came from? I have googled red damask dishes or plates forever and can't find any as cute as these!
