Tiered trays fit for a queen! Using mix-and-match plates, saucers and tea cups you can make fabulous trays for next to nothing!
You will need:
- Three decorative plates in different sizes (perfect excuse to run to the thrift store)
- Two tea cups
- Pencil
- Gorilla glue
- Rubber gloves (as per gorilla glue instructions)
Start by playing around with your plates and cups to see which combinations you like. For extra sturdy towers, stack your plates largest at the bottom to smallest at the top (see above.) Find the center of your plate and following the gorilla glue instructions, glue a tea cup between your two largest plates. Gorilla glue recommends clamping the items your gluing. This is tough to do with china. Use heavy books instead. In about two hours you'll have a beautiful tiered tray! I used mine for jewelry. Enjoy and have fun!
Wait! Useful tip: Always carry your tray from it's base!
