Fall Centerpiece Cake Plate Idea #2

So you say “I don’t have a cake plate” Well just get out your dinner plates and a glass goblet and stack them on top of each other!Add some black scrapbook paper to the edges of the plates with a few dots of hot glue (that can be peeled right off later) that have been cut with some decorative scissors…..could it get any simpler!
Add some apples and a candle with a ribbon and some popcorn in a cello bag tied with a ribbon and you are good to go. You will notice that you can see the goblet part of the glass and so I filled it with some fall berries for a little added touch.

Voila!! A cute Centerpiece made from things you already own!


Think of all the possiblities…Orange paper, pink paper, striped paper, floral, Christmas etc… the options are endless…just by using some paper to change the look! You could even add glitter or glue on some embellishments! If you do this please send me your links so I can see your results!

    This is an incredibly cute and versitile idea. But you really had me at Hello with the scalloped newspaper cake plates. What a stroke of brilliance.

    I need to get hopping with a fall wreath.

Happy heavenly Mother’s Day to my mom! How we al Happy heavenly Mother’s Day to my mom! How we all loved her! I miss her funny sense of humor, her fierce love of others, her cooking and desires to always please everyone. Mom had strength beyond my comprehension she was always gardening… moving heavy pots, digging in hard soil and creating an oasis everywhere she lived. Her love of all things French was something to admired. Everyone who ever walked into her home could immediately feel loved and cared for. Mom worked tirelessly in her chocolate company right up until just a few months before she died. Her sacrifices for us were uncountable. I love my mom and all she was and did and especially her faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Here’s to all the moms past present and future and to all the sacrifices, teachings and loving us even when we drive them crazy. 

Loving and missing my mom! ❤️
