I made a cake stand awhile back and so I decided to make another one.
This time I thought that it would be fun to have the background of the plate be fabric.
Here is how I made it:
1) I took a clear plate and then cut a circle of fabric, about an inch bigger than the plate
2) I covered the back of the plate with mod podge
3) I then put the fabric, front facing the mod podge, onto the plate
4) Then I put another layer of mod podge all over the fabric
5) Cut the extra fabric off around the edges. Make sure that you really seal down the edges so water can’t get under the fabric
6) I actually put another layer of mod podge around the edge and then with my thumb sealed it all around
7) I then painted a candlestick brown and glued it to the plate (using an epoxy glue).
** The back of the plate isn’t water proof but it’s resistant. It won’t get damaged if it gets a little water on it, but it cannot be soaked in water. The front of the plate is just glass, you can wash that with soap and water. **

I love this idea! I've been thinking I want to jump on the bandwagon of chic plate collections on walls, but was daunted at trying to find cute plates. This changes everything! Fabric, I have in spades. 🙂 Thanks for the tute!
This is such a great idea! I can picture it on my table now! Have a great day:)
How creative – would look so cute as a party themed cake plate.
This is too cute! I love the fabric you used!!

That's cute! I really would like/need a cake stand. . . Thanks for sharing this!
This is great! What do you know about spray paint and food? Are we allowed to place food on something that's been spray painted? I wanted to make a cake stand out of this thingy I got at GW.. But I don't know if that's safe.
What a great idea.
Adorable!
Wow… what a super cute idea! Vicki

That is cute! I've been meaning to do a glass plate with fabric on to hang up. Never thought of a cake stand. Very cool!
What a great idea! I have the stand to make one, but I haven't been able to find a plate that I like. I know I'll find some great fabric so I'm going to run and grab a clear plate at the dollar store…thank you!
Pretty cool idea! Cute fabric too…thanks for linkup to Mad Skills Monday! See you next week!
