Light the way

concretenprimroses
12 years ago

When I was looking through the garage, yard and cellar for props to bring to the craft fair and hang plate flowers on I found a lost treasure. Years ago I bought this little stand at a rummage sale. It is supposed to hold 4 potted plants in a spiral. Such small pots would always need watering so I never used it.

I couldn't figure out how to use it in my display, but I repainted it with rustoleum anyway. Then I pulled out some glass things that don't sit flat and added faux votives.

Voila! It looks real pretty at night but I couldn't get a good pic. Its too cold at night for evening parties in the garden, so I've only used it on my porch so far.

Concrete shapes to keep it stable. I've got lots of those lying around.

I'm actually thinking of making mini plate flowers out of doll dishes and glueing them to the stem.
