Mini Pedestal Cake Stand

I have been wanting a small cake stand to serve cookies and petit fours to my guests when they come to tea.  I looked everywhere but never saw anything near to what I wanted.

I was about to give up searching when, a few days ago, I was reading one of my favorite blogs (Bee in My Bonnet http://beeinmybonnetco.blogspot.com) and there was my mini cake stand!  Lori had purchased a beautiful dish and a candle stick holder at a thrift store.  After viewing cake stand, I  just had to run right out to my local thrift store to see what I could find.

Here are my beautiful pieces.  The dish was on half-price sale so I got it for 32 cents and the candle stick holder was 60 cents.  So for a total of 95 cents, including tax, I finally got my mini cake stand.  I'm putting it together with a glue named named E-6000.  It's supposed to be very strong.
