Farmhouse Tiered Stand


Tiered stands are going to be a popular  fall decorating staple,  but have you checked out the price tag on them?   Maybe I don't know the right place to buy one,    but I couldn't find any for less than $50.  

What's a girl on a decorating budget to do?   Make her own of course!


I had 3 nested spring form pans in the cupboard and thought they would be perfect to make my tiered stand.    I only used two of them today,  but I may make a taller one later using all three.

   I took photo's as I assembled my tiered stand and ......


I also took photo's as I decorated it!  

 I didn't glue any of my pieces together as I plan to still use my spring form pans to cook in when I disassemble my stand.    If  I wanted it to be a permanent tiered stand,   I would use e6000 to glue everything together.


Here is another stand that I used a different pillar and accessories in.....


I didn't put any breakables in my spring form pan.    I don't want anything to  be broken if my tiered stand should  get knocked over by accident.


I separated my "bouquet" of yellow flowers and scattered them around the vignette.


I didn't like the look of the pumpkins and flowers just laying in the bottom of the pans.  so I used crocheted pieces to fill the bottom up and then just place the flowers and pumpkins on top.


Has anyone made a tiered stand from items that you have on hand?

 I would love to see it!

  16. Check out your Good Will. I found mine there for about 3 bucks. If they don't have one, they always have old silver and candle sticks, and you can glue that without worry! Your idea for the spring form pans is amazing, and it looks amazing too!

  17. What a fun idea you found instead of putting out the big bucks! All my tiered servers have been purchased from thrift stores and none over $10.00. I like the use of the lace and doilies. The Happy Wonderer

  18. Penny, I just think this is so smart! Can you still take it apart to make cheesecake? That's the important question. Just kidding...kind of.

    Thank you for sharing with us today. We love having you!
