Last year while planning Lil Bug's 1st birthday party, I ran into a problem with my "want" and what I could actually find in the stores at a price I was willing to pay for a party. Those that know me, know, I love a bargain and if its not something I will use over and over and often...I refuse to pay full price. I wanted a red tiered serving platter. I couldn't find one. Then I saw that you could DIY one and they were all over blog land. It was perfect timing! I made my own.And then I made another....
Fast forward to present...I really needed to organize my jewelry. I have cubby holes in my closet and one of them houses all my jewelry. It was a mess. I wasn't quite sure what I wanted to do until I saw a picture of a tiered jewelry holder and decided I must make one.

| Photo via Better Homes and Gardens I collected my supplies....3 plates, 2 candlesticks, and glue.  You will want to turn the candlestick upside down so that the top plate gets the most surface area. I glued my candlesticks (upside down) to 2 of the plates. See how there is more surface area on the bottom ring? Allow to dry for a good hour or so before moving on to next step.  Glue one on top of the other and again, allow to dry for a good hour or so.  Then glue the last plate to the top.  I used glass glue but found that super glue (dollar store) works better...its thicker and you can get more on the tiny rim of the candlestick.  |
