Hello, hello there!
Happy Saturday to you all.
This diy cake tier is by no means the first in the land of blogs. It’s just today, that I decided I needed a little snack tier for my boys when they came home from school. Those boys come home ravaged and tend to go for cookies, and stuff I really do not want them eating before Dinner time.
We love pistachio’s! And they are a satisfying treat as well!~
Clementines are another favorite snack!
I already had the pretty plates on hand.
What I did for the stand, is spray paint a crystal dollar tree candle holder. {Jade} Is the color I chose.
It is a pretty contrast between the white and light blue plates.
Jack wasted no time digging into the healthy snacks!
He even asked “Mom did you make this thing”?
Yes, Jack, with my own two hands I did!
Thanks for stopping by today!~

LOL Jack is too cute….What a great idea! We never have anything nice like that at our Dollar Tree….just cleaning supplies and paper products! I love the jade….it is a very nice contrast. Enjoy your Saturday!

I love the color Jade, too! Great idea to make healthy snacks more fun! Enjoy your weekend…and those sweet boys!

I LOVE pistachios, too. I don’t buy them that often because we can sit down and clean out a whole bag.
Kris
Nice Deb! We love pistachios too. Have you had the salt and black pepper ones?

Jack’s right ~ you did good! I LOVE Clementine’s…could eat them all the time. Pistachios are wonderful too ~ I just cannot have that many.

I remember how starved my two were when they got home from school. Like you, I tried the healthier route….most of the time. :))
Your tier is just adorable….

You just never cease to amaze me! I love that I can get such great ideas from you.
Linda @ A La Carte
That is cute with two plates!
Martina
Debbie that turned out so pretty and I love the jade color! We love pistachios here too, the only problem is the bag is gone in a day!! Same with a jar of Planters peanuts!
Rondell
Really neat Deb, I remember too how they all came home hungry as bears!
Bliss
I don’t know….. I love pistachios myself, so might have to put out double because I’m sure to eat most of those.

Debbie
That’s cute, Debbie! I like the fact that it’s two tiered.
And you could still put cookies on it don’tcha know…

Hi Debbie,
I love your cake tier.
Clementines are so yummy. My youngest son loves them. We try to keep pistachios in the house at all times. They do make a great snack.

Debbie, I know it is the back of his head, but that is still a great picture of Jack. I loved that he asked about your plate, it is so cute. I know with my son, when he got home from school he would eat anything I put out, which was healthy snacks, where if I left him on his own it wouldn’t be!

Really great tiered server Debbie…we just made those in our “Crafty Chicks” club!!…although we did not paint the crystal candleholder…I really LOVE the painted technique you did so much better than leaving the crystal as is…It is beautiful!!!

Love, Love, Love this~!! I am so impressed. I have seen these around blogland, but not this cute. It is darling. Now I am craving pistachios!
Lori
I love cake tiers and have made several. Thinking of making Christmas ones for all my friends.
Sara
So simple and yet so rewarding. Your kids get nutritious snacks and you have peace of mind!
Mary
Love this! I love those plates and the painted blue candlestick is genius. You chose the perfect shade to compliment those dishes. Very nice, or as the young ones like to say..sweeet!!!
Kelly
What a nice tiered stand! I like how simple it was to make using things you already had on hand. Aren’t pistachio’s the BEST thing ever???? We’ve been eating those around here and they don’t last long. Wish they weren’t so darn expensive too. Thanks for sharing your project!
Nann......At Nanns Table
Love this idea. I was just looking at those candle holders yesteday at the dollar tree. I’d never thought about painting them. I just love the idea! And I’d eat a handful of those pistachios if I could get my hand through the computer. (smile) LOVE pistachios. Thanks for sharing such a great idea Debbie.
Nann
PS Well I have just another week or two and I will no longer be a newbie. I will truly miss being able to post on your party. It has been wonderful. Many Many thanks.
Lorrie
Love this stacked, what type of glue did you use? I’m never what glue to use for what… Thanks!
debbiedoo's
I only used my glue gun on the top and bottom. Seems to be sustained Ok so far. However, if you want it more permanent I would go with gorilla glue.
Pam @ diy Design Fanatic
Love it!
