i've been seeing these DIY tiered trays all over blogland lately. i didn't realize how easy they were until i tried it myself!
supplies:
plates or bowels of your choice (i used a dinner plate, a salad plate and a bowl from target. i loved the patterns and would have loved a whole set but money doesn't grow on trees!)
candle sticks (bought at dollar tree. $1 a piece, can't beat that!)
E6000 (on hand)
heavy weighted pieces to help the glue set (i used my super heavy wooden candle holders)
glue one candle stick to the bowl.
glue the other to the small salad plate.
make sure you wipe up your excess glue.
weight both of those down with your heavy objects for at least an hour or two. they glue says 24 hours but i'm not that patient and only waited the length of a movie. i haven't had any problems with mine from not waiting.
glue the other side of the candle stick to your large plate.
after you wait a while then glue the other end of the candle stick with your bowl to the smaller plate and weight down, i let it sit this way over night. (no pic of this, somehow i forgot to snap one. sorry!)
and viola! you're done and it's super cute looking. i now have it on the dinning room table holding some little munchies!
