crafty: upcycled cakestands

Ava Kate’s birthday party is less than 2 weeks away!  I have a lot to do but I love having a deadline.  When I have a deadline…I get stuff done!   Above all, my favorite thing I made this weekend is a cakestand…and it was so EASY.  Once I gathered my supplies, it took about 2 minutes to make the cakestand.

I used an amazing tutorial found on Design Sponge.  Here are a couple pictures of the process…

My $.50 garage sale candlestick and $7 Ikea platter now look like this….

I will definitely be making more of these….
