If you’re planning on making a cheesecake for shavuot, do you have a cake stand to display it? When you’re in a pinch, it’s easy to make your own cake stand with an inexpensive plate and bowl from the dollar store. (Actually, the plate and bowl were each $1.49 from the 99 Cents Only Store, but there’s inflation for you.)
Even if you’re not planning on making a cheesecake, or any dessert for that matter, a cake stand is a handy thing to have around the house. It’s great for organizing makeup and toiletries in the bathroom, or a place to hold keys, wallet or mail on a dresser or entry table.
What you’ll need:
Ceramic plate
Small ceramic bowl
E6000 permanent adhesive
