I love anything Cath Kidston. She is a London designer who uses lots of fun colors, like red and blue, and pretty roses with polka dots and stripes in her designs. When I saw her cake stand online, I knew I wanted one like it. It reminded me of the cake stands I had seen in bloggy land using candlesticks.
I had the idea in my mental Rolodex until I found the right plates. These rosy ones were found in a store while shopping in Fredericksburg. They are melamine and were under $10 for the three of them.
Using candlesticks I already owned and simple silicon glue from Hobby Lobby, I glued and stacked the plates letting them set for 24 hours.
Isn't it cute! Under $10 makes me even happier!
This will come in handy for the shabby chic baby shower I am working on for next month. It is a brunch shower, so these little plates will hold quiches, sausage balls, and doughnut holes perfectly!
Thank you Cath Kidston for the inspiration!
