Bird plate stand

I got two brass bird candle holders and I had two white porcelain saucers (without cup ridge) and epoxied them together for a friendly way to hold my scones the next time I have tea! The brass is a gold color (don't use that color) so I used Rub'N Buff (silver) on the brass and it gave the little stand a more antique silver look.

That is such a cute holder. I like that you made it silver nice touch.
I like birds, so if it has a bird on it I am attracted to it.

Ciao

Glenda!
That is why I picked these up (there were two) and for only 50 cents each at a thrift store!!!
Thanks, great to see you here!

Thanks for coming by Beverly!
I love scones with my Tazo Earl Gray tea, but if I can 'dress' it up a bit, that is even more special!
Thanks for your wonderful comments!
You have a happy rest of the week too!

What an ingenious idea! I love it when things come together like that. I really like the silver too.

Kel,
Hi! Ya isn't it great! They do not happen too often, but love it when they do! And even better when someone else notices!
