A couple years ago, I purchased two of these April Cornell salad plates on clearance at HomeSense. You have seen what I did with one of them, right HERE. This winter I found two of the matching dinner plates at a thrift store.
I usually have a couple of Dollarama candle holders in my "stash", just in case...you know. A girl has to be prepared. ;)
The first thing I did was find the middle of two of the plates.
I glued the candle holders onto the bottom of the plates (while the plates were upside down). I always forget about taking pictures each step of the way. At this stage, my little project could have been complete and I would have had two beautiful raised cake plates.
However, I decided to keep going, since I had another plate that matched. I now have a 3 layer sweet plate, or a sweet 3 layer plate ;) that cost me about $8. I think my bunny is hoping for carrots on that plate. But anyone who knows me, knows the snack will be MUCH sweeter!!

Hi Tanya,
ReplyDeleteOh, this is so pretty! I love the contrast between the glass candle holder and those pretty plates.
Beautiful idea, the Bunny pitcher is just gorgeous...What a terrific savings as well. Well done! This 3 layer plate would be a lovely gift too...
All the Best,
Christine
What a great way of using those odd plates we have - not enough for a whole set, but want them on the table somehow. I'll be using this idea in my own home. What kind of glue did you use?
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty idea. I really like it. Your imagination astounds me. I am not crafty at all. Beautiful Tanya
ReplyDeleteTanya,
ReplyDeleteYou turned 3 very pretty plates into a tower of beauty! Making a treasure out of this and that makes my heart sing!
Your 3 tiered plate looks so lovely with the glass candlestick risers. I prefer the glass so much better than any metal ones!
What are you going to do with it? Fill it with Easter goodies????
Thanks for sharing how to make this beauty!

This is very pretty Tanya. I like those plates. Great idea. Pamela
ReplyDeletewhat a great idea!!!! Even I could do that so I forsee a trip to the dollar store!!!! Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteWow, they look so pretty!!
ReplyDeleteThat looks beautiful--I love those tiered plates!
ReplyDeleteHi Tanya, You have inspired me to try this idea. It will give me an excuse to look for a single plate that I think is lovely but there is only one of them. Thanks for bringing some beautiful creativity into our day.
ReplyDeleteLove the plates and how they turned out as a stacked cake plate. Fabulous! come link up to Centerpiece Wednesday and share you ideas.

Great idea, it turned out so pretty. Love the plates too.
ReplyDeleteI've seen these done a few time. But , I have to say this is one of my favorites! Super cute!
ReplyDeleteThat turned out to be so pretty. It will be wonderful with carrots and celery sticks... or lots of sweet yummies. That bunny is darling!
ReplyDeleteThansk for sharing at my party!

What a great project. I love the three tiers. Those are beautiful plates you found and for such a great price. I found you via French Country Cottage. I am your latest follower. I hope you will stop by.
ReplyDeleteLove this idea. Now you can serve more snacks in the same amount of space:-) Sounds like a plan to me. Thanks so much for stopping by to enter my giveaway.
ReplyDeletethis is so pretty- I've made single plates on candlesticks before, but I've never stacked them- awesome idea!!
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous plates. How lucky to find matching ones at the thrift store!
ReplyDeleteHow very pretty, I like the glass and plate combination. The plates are so pretty that the 3 tiered would have to turn out great. Did you use E2000 for glue? Love that stuff. So very pretty. Thanks for sharing your creative inspiration at Sunday's Best! PS - featuring on my Facebook page.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and so original :)

Very pretty! I made two of these a few years ago and used them at our daughters weddings. I like the green plates you used to make them.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely idea, thanks.
