Upcycled Pickle Jar and Cake Stand updo!

Upcycled/Repurposed ugly things!

2 huge pickle jars cleaned with goo gone.

psss...goo gone will also take off that "best by" date thing!

I had this werid knob like thing for a while...

and I glued it on a lid with E6000

I also had this giant goldy butterfly heart...

so I glued it on a lid...

Let them dry.

I painted it gray...then took it to the workshop and

spray painted it metallic gun metal!

Perfecto!

Doesn't even smell like pickles!

Painted it sparkly teal!

and presto!

I love how ornate these lids are now! So fun!

Now...what to fill them with???

Next was this plastic cloche cheese dome thing...

I glue a candlestick to the bottom.

Still very blah!

And then painted it my "go to" color of AQUA!

Much better!

Moral of the story:

Glue, paint and accessories! :)

Linking up to THESE parties this week!
