Project #1

I finally got one of my (many) projects done. I've been wanting to do this for quite some time. Plus, I've really been wanting a cake platter. So I made my own, all for under $5. The only downside...there is no cover.

I used a candle holder as my base and an oversized plate.

I used white semi gloss spray paint - kinda wish I woulda got super glossy. I gave it a few good coats and even sanded a couple areas where the paint had left drip marks.

I then super glued (Gorilla Glue to be exact) the base to the plate.

And voila. My new cake platter. I will have always use paper doilies due to using spray paint, but that's a small price to pay for how cheap it was. Plus, I recycled other parts to make it, which makes me feel good.
