Craft of the Week: DIY Cake Stands

January 21, 2013 by Valerie Ott 1 Comment

Good morning! I hope you all had a great weekend. We certainly did. Lots of family time and football. There’s no school today for MLK day, of course, so if you’re looking for something to do with the kiddos, you might consider visiting All for Good. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: ‘What are you doing for others?'” With the New Year, many of us make resolutions to serve. Today’s the perfect day to get started! Just enter your zip code on this site and you’ll find opportunities near you for contributing to this Day of Service. And now on with our regularly scheduled programming…

Lately, I’ve been seeing lots of pins that involve gluing candlesticks and dishes together to make cake stands. They seem really easy, and are such a cute way to create a custom piece for your buffet or kitchen island. You’ve gotta be careful, though, in choosing the right pieces or it will look like you went to Goodwill and glued stuff together. I know, that’s exactly what you’re supposed to do, but you don’t want people to know that, silly! Here are some examples of ones that are very well done:
