$6 DIY glass two tier cupcake/cake stand

I'm going to show you how to make an impressive looking cupcake/ cake stand for under $10. Similar stands in stores would cost at least $20 or more. I got everything needed at the dollar store for $6 plus tax. This stand could hold a batch of cupcakes on the top and bottom or a cake on the top with cupcakes on the bottom.
This is SUCH a simple craft that ANYONE can do this! It's super easy and fun and the results are well worth the 15 minutes it takes to put this together! No one will know you made this yourself for $6!

Step 1 Gather your materials!

I purchased two glass plates, a glass pinch bowl, a tall glass ice cream dish, super glue gel and some paper doilies for $1 each at the Dollar Tree.

We made these for our wedding at the start of august, only with a smaller plate up top. I had a competition with my wife to see who could find the kitschest plates and they also make great favour to give people when leaving. (We got married the other end of the country as there was a spare school hall and so were travelling light :p)

That's awesome! I LOVE wedding decor that can be turned into wedding favors! I mean, what the heck are you going to do with all that stuff afterwards!? Throw it out? Giving it away is such a cooler option! Even at the dollar store, I saw some very kitchy robin's egg blue plates and some white square plates with rounded edges with little lines down the side of them. Such a cheap easy fix!
