I just love, love these adorable cake stands that you can make out of a pretty plate, a nearly discarded dish, and an old vase.  Brilliant idea from Design*Sponge.

This is what you’ll need:

- old plates (any size)
- old candlesticks or vases (look for anything that is wider at the bottom, with a sturdy base and a flat top)
- epoxy (from a hardware store)
- masking tape
- popsicle stick or q-tips without their fluff (something to apply the epoxy with)
- paper plate or scrap cardboard (something to mix the epoxy on that you can throw out)
- rags and cleaning solution
