DIY Pedestal

I was at my MIL's this weekend and noticed that I gave her these DIY pedestals that I made for my baby shower. This is such an inexpensive idea for centerpieces for candles, a cake or dessert pedestal, or whatever you can think of.

I was about to purchase about 20 cake pedestals (about $6 a piece) to use throughout the shower but the light bulb came on and I created these. I bought a clear glass plate ($1.00) and a taper candle holder ($.50) and adhered it with E-6000 glue for a perfect bond, although a hot glue gun will work perfectly. Not including the cost of the glue, I was able to get my pedestals for about $1.80. Not bad, huh?!
