DIY RECYCLED PEDESTAL TRAY
made from an old chipped cake dome and
an old oil pan
This cake stand with dome had seen its glory days- and now lay abandoned in my basement with a huge chip in it & this metal oil pan had also seen better days- my mom had actually already painted this for me to turn into a serving tray - Then she came up with this fab idea- turn it in to an awesome pedestal tray!
I used my go to adhesive -E 6000- I used liberally along the edge on the glass cake stand and let it dry (upside down) overnight- be careful to follow the E6000 directions or it may not hold properly!
and voila the finished pedestal!
I love the glass/metal combination- and it fits in with the cottage
style that I have going on my front porch
This year I decided to go with an all white theme for fall on my front porch, and this tray was a perfect accent!
I just used a single strand of white berries and wrapped them in a circle
- dropped in the mini pumpkin gourds I picked up at my local grocery store- 2 for a dollar!
such a lovely fall scene I am trying to conjure up some peace this
fall season....
fall season....
and what to do with the leftover cake dome? it was still in good shape with no chips or cracks- so I paired it with this cute vintage metal tray that I already had(you can see my selection of vintage metal trays for sale at my etsy shop www.MimisSuitcase.etsy.com)
I think I just might have to bake something to go under it today!
