Whether a special occasion is coming or you need something decorative to store things on in your home - these 3 tier stands are easy and inexpensive to make, and look fantastic!
To Start you'll need 3 dishes of your choice. They can be 3 of the same size plate, bowl, or different sizes - you get to mix and match. You'll also need something to go between your dishes like a candle holder, vase, jar, etc.
I'm using a large plate, small plate, and a bowl I found at a thrift store and 2 taper candle holders I had on hand.
The fun part is deciding which way you want the dishes and candle holders to go. You'll want your item on the bottom. Here I tried the large plate on the bottom, bowl in the middle, and small plate on top. I also varied the way the candle holders would be in between the dishes - you'll notice one is right side up and one is upside down.
Here is another option the the small plate in the middle and the bowl on top and both candle holders are upright.
Next you'll need to decide how you'd like to adhere them together. You'll need to decide if you want something permanent or temporary.
If you want temporary you'll want to use either Museum Wax which is what museums and homes in California use to hold their items in place in the event of an earthquake. Another temporary solution is using hot glue. These will make your dishes secure enough for an event and then you can pull them apart to put the dishes away.
If you want permanent you can use an adhesive like E6000 or a Super Glue Fix All adhesive.
I'll use hot glue, but the application of the adhesives would be the same. I place the glue on the bottom of the candle holder and placed it in the center on the bottom dish.
I then put a layer of glue on the top of that same candle holder.
I placed the small dish on top of the candle holder.
Using the second candle holder upside down, I placed glue on the top of the candle holder and placed that in the center of the small plate.
I put glue on the base of the candle holder.
I set the bowl on the top. Let cool/dry completely.
Here is another dish set I made and this one I used E6000 for the glue as I wanted this one to be permanent. Use them in the kitchen for serving, in your bedroom for jewelry, or in the bathroom for wash clothes, supplies, and soap. One idea with so many uses!
