So, I've been wanting a cake stand for a while now, but I didn't feel like spending at least $30 or more. Found this great, super easy tutorial HERE. Try it out and let me know how it goes!
I went to the local thrift store and bought some sundae cups and glass plates.. less than $1 each.I used clear caulk (it looks like a white paste then dries clear) I used way too much here... about half this amount is good and not too thick.Wipe any excess caulk off with a wet q-tip.
Then let it dry for a few days (It took mine a good 2 days to dry)
Then once it dries.. you're all done!!
Then... I was at the dollar store last night and saw these... you can really make a cake stand with anything!
- Sand the areas you'll be gluing so it will hold better.
- Use the E-6000 glue found at Walmart. I heard it's the best.
- Let it sit for a couple days just to be extra safe:)

Thank you for sharing. I've never wanted to pay $30 either. This is really a good idea. Thanks!
This is seriously cute! I am going to try this. Does it actually hold up? I sure would hate a big mess! I have wanted one of these for a long time.
