Hello friends.
I have an adorable little cupcake stand that I made out of repurposed items.
It’s simple and takes minutes to make!
Materials needed:
- Domed lid
- Candle holder
- Small plate
- E6000 or similar glue
- Hot Glue
- Transfer optional

This was a lid I found at Goodwill. I used it as the plate.

Domed glass to use as a lid.

A candle holder. Preferably flat on the top.
Let’s put them together
- Start by cleaning your glass pieces really well.
- Apply E6000 and hot glue to the top of the candle holder. Applying hot glue between the E6000 will give it instant adhesion, so your glass candle holder won’t slide.
- Let dry overnight.
If you have a flat top on the candle holder, there is more surface area to hold the plate, and it will stay in place a lot better when drying.

The glues left a milky appearance that you could see through the pieces of glass. To solve the problem, I used a rose transfer and placed it on top of the plate.
The transfer is from IOD, and it is called Painterly Florals. The whole book of transfers looks painted.

It wipes clean with a damp cloth.
You could also use it as a mini display.

Our local Safeway sells them here for $24.99, and this was made for $1.98.

A fast and simple DIY.
Let me know what you think!


That turned out so cute! What a fun thing to create.
Thank you! Love when things work together like that!
