DIY Cake Stand

My sweet, adorable nephew turned 1 this past week and my sister made this awesome cake stand to put cupcakes on for his party. It was such a neat idea I had to share!

She went to Goodwill and bought an old brass chandler for $8. She then spray painted the chandler along with some wood plaques and attached them all to the chandler.  Ta da. Done. Looks awesome doesn’t it?
