My new cake plates!

Through my continual search for inspiration and my addiction to blog hopping, I have seen many different lovely home made cake plates from different blogs. I have loved them and have wanted to make my own for a while. I finally took a trip down to the good old Utah DI and picked up a few things. I get a little excited for the projects I am doing and always forget to take a before picture of everything...so instead you get a before they were painted, while the glue was still drying pic!! :)
Here is the first one, upside down (glue is drying) I loved this plate! It was so springy I could not resist and the bottom is a ceramic candle holder.Although I actually liked the candle holder or what ever it was with the hand painted flowers and bees, it just does not fit anything that I would use it for, but it was perfect for a taller cake stand!And here is my springy cake stand next to my tulips from the backyard!And the taller one, I spray painted black for a cohesive look.And the two together! I love them!!
