cake stand fruit bowl!













Some years ago I bought this lovely Grindley cake stand from a local antique store and for years it has sat in a cupboard coming out once or twice a year. While walking down to the local farmers market this morning I had a thought, why not use it as a fruit bowl? I think it looks lovely don't you?

  5. Makes a lovely fruit bowl or if your'e having a tea party it can revert back to cake stand.

    Shame to have it hidden in the cupboard.

    I love blue and white pottery. x x x x

  6. Looks lovely Jude, I also use a plate stand in the same way. It has three tiers and I can change the plates depending on the mood. I have 3 odd Blue and white plates on at the moment. Bananas on the top and apples and mandarins below. Cathyx

  7. I just love cake stands, but why have them hiding in a cupboard? I have four so maybe now I can change them every now and then. :)
