Welcome to this months' "Do It Over Designers" Blog Hop! The "Do It Over Designers" is a group of creative bloggers who love to recycle/upcycle/ DIY, hosted by Anne @The Apple Street Cottage. It happens the 4th Saturday of every other month and it's all about taking something old and/or unused and 'doing it over' into something new. Normally we don't have a theme, but every now and then Anne wants us to 'do over' a certain item. This month's theme is Metal! Thanks Anne for hosting this wonderful blog hop!

The best part about this DIY staggered tier treats stand is that it's made of metal! Two types! Stainless steel plates and brass candlestick holders! Perfect for this month's 'Do It Over Designers' Bog Hop Metal theme! I picked up both items and more at my neighbors' moving giveaways! That sounds a bit strange but just before the pandemic hit, my next door neighbors were moving from Maryland to Texas in a U-Haul and had a 'take what you want' from items in their garage. Which meant that the plates and candlestick holders and a few other items I got were free! You certainly can beat that!
Here's What I Used To Make the Stand:

This is really a quick and easy to make staggered tier treats stand! I'm using five stainless steel plates that are 13, 10, 9, 8, and 7 inches wide.
and four brass candlestick holders with various heights of 3, 5, 6, and 7.5 inches.
Beginning with the largest plate . . . I visualized the candlestick holders placed on the plate below, as pictured:
That looked pretty good, so I began adding RapidFuse adhesive - a quick grab glue that sets in 30 seconds - to the base of the first candlestick holder.
Placing the first candlestick holder down on the left side of the plate and . . .
gluing the second plate on top of the candlestick holder.
Then placing the second candlestick holder on the right side. Which I didn't like, so I . . .moved it closer to the front of the bottom plate and glued those pieces down.
Next came the fourth candlestick holder and plate glued down near the back center.
And finally, the fifth candlestick and plate glued down near the back right side.
Easy-Peasy!
I'm really loving the staggered look of this tier treats stand!
It's an adorable way to elevate your treats presentation with a charming four tier staggered metal stand!
And adorn with gold color doilies, too!
Delightfully elegant in complimentary metals - stainless steel plates supported with assorted brass metal candlestick holders! A stand that's both decorative and functional! How cool is that!
