DIY— Cake Stands for Yummy Cakes and Cupcakes

You hear the word ‘cake,’ and the term ‘Yum’ is pretty instantaneous as a reply that comes out of your mouth. The whole thing about cakes and confectionaries is pretty dramatically appealing and manages to elate anyone, regardless of age to go a little berserk to have them all.

Well, if you are a fan of yummy cakes and good decorations around, then you might want to give making beautiful cake/cupcake stands a try yourself!

So in this week, we are going to tell you how you can create beautiful cake stands for some yummy and savoring cakes.

Things you will need

- Old microwave plates

- Candle stands

- Pie dishes

- Spray paint

- Glue

1. Take a candle stand and on top of it attach one of the old microwave plate or a pie dish.
   
   
   
2. Make sure that you use good glue so that the objects are fixated properly to each other and don't fall apart.
   
3. Take a spray paint—colour can be of your choice. You can keep it plain black, blue, or white if you want a monochromatic look, or go for multiple colors for a more colourful outlook.
   
4. Spray the first coat of paint upside down. As you leave it to dry, take another stand and repeat the same step of attaching it to a pie dish.
   
   
   
5. You will need altogether three coats of spray paint, neatly done, for a clean finish and shiny appearance.
   
6. Once that’s done, you have your all new cake stand, completely made by you!

Finding new ways to make life a little easier is always time well spent. So we decided that we would find innovative house hacks for you because we understand how important your time is. In the list below you will find easy, cost effective and fun ways to make your house a little more functional and a little less boring by using everyday items that are just lying around the house.

1. Door Knob Hangers

If you’re always looking for a place to hang your towels or clothes in the bathroom, this hack is just for you. Try fixing an old door knob to the wall, it looks great and you’ll never have to pick your clothes up of the floor again.

2. What Chalk is Really For

Don’t you just hate it when someone greases up your freshly painted wall? Well, you can solve your greasy fingerprint problem with chalk. Just chalk up the fingerprints and wipe down with a damp cloth.

3. Wired up Coat Hangers

With the age of technology comes cables and knotted wires, one of the most widely faced issues. Use a coat hanger to easily store your old cables and wires and you’ll never have to sit there for hours unravelling them.

4. When Life Gives You Lemons

Everybody loves to eat home-cooked food, but only a few will stay back to help clean up. Ovens take the longest, but if you cut a few lemons, put them in some water and then place them in a pre-heated oven until the water starts boiling, you’ll be able to wipe away that stubborn grease with ease.

5. The Nail, the Hammer and the Magnet

All DIY lovers, glue a magnet to the end of your hammer so you don’t have to hold dirty nails in your mouth while you work.
