Decorative DIY Cookie Stand
It’s Thrift Store Décor Makeover Day. This has come to be my favorite tour theme. I enjoy shopping the thrift stores and creating something fun from my finds. This month I made a….
Decorative DIY Cookie Stand
I found the candle holder at the junk shop.
And I painted it with my new fav paint color….Heirloom White.
Then distressed all that lovely detail.
The vintage green plate is from a set I purchased at the thrift store a couple of years ago. The set wasn’t a full set….just odds and ends. I display the dishes in my china cabinet and use them at Christmas time for appetizers and such.
I used E6000 to glue the plate to the candle holder.
I had to make these cookies just for the photo shoot. Then I had to eat them. I managed to only eat 6 the day I made them……hey….they were small. Good thing the granddaughters came over next day and finished them off.
The cookie stand turned out so darn cute I use it everyday as décor. The small plate on top is a piece I picked up at the Nashville Flea Market. The colors are beautiful and go perfectly with the green plate. I think it’s cute to hide in the cabinet. What do ya'll think about it? Let me know. I read all of your comments.
Now it’s time to take the tour.

Have a great day,

I tried to do this with a small glass candle holder from the Dollar Tree, but when I glued it onto the plate it was crooked/unlevel. Ever come across this?
Kathy Owen
No, maybe the glass candle holder was uneven.

I like this, but I would like it better if the plate matched the candle holder, but that is just me!!!
