I went to my local Goodwill in search of the perfect plate and stand. Really, the possibilities are endless here. Immediately I saw the plate I wanted to use. It was so vibrant and full of color and I just love it. It is sort of a Tuscany-Italiana pattern. After circling the store numerous times, picking things up and putting them back down, that's when I spotted it! A blue and white vase on the top shelf that so perfectly matched the blue in the plate. And when I put them together, it was as if they were made for each other!
And this can be not only a cake platter, but can be used for many things: appetizer tray, candle holder, a doodad that you put on your nightstand to hold jewelry! So much potential! I think I'm going to use mine at my next craft show to put jewelry on! One note, when washing, do not submerge in water, wipe off gently with a dishcloth since the pieces are glued together.
What do you think?
I started with these two pieces: a plate and a vase. Don't they look like they were made for each other?
And ended up with this! A cake platter, appetizer tray, jewelry display, candle holder...etc. Whatever I want it to be!
