Campy Cupcake Stand

Earlier this year by friends over at Scotchblue asked me to create a 4th of July inspired project, which sort of started the whole campy obsession.

To do this project you will need:

Glass Dish

Candle Stick

ScotchBlue Painters tape

Square Punch

Scrubber Pad

Scissors

Paint

E6000 Glue

 

Start by punching out squares from your ScotchBlue tape. You can use scissors to cut it or a square paper punch to make them more uniform. Cut your squares in ½ to make triangles.

Stick them to the inside of your glass dish (for ultimate wipeability)

Paint over the glass and peel your tape off.

Using a scrubber to rough it up your triangles a little to make it feel a little more rustic because, lets face it perfection is boring! Make sure you do this before your paint has a chance to fully cure,  it will be dry but not fully adhered to the glass (with in the first 3 hours of painting)

I found on old thrifted candleholder that I used for the base. I wanted the project to feel like summer camp so I went with a Pendleton stripe on the raw wood. Paint your widest stripe first, once its dry tape off your second stripe and so on. Make sure that you are using ScotchBlue Delicate for this step (when you are taping of fresh paint you want to take extra precautions to make sure your paint isn’t peeled off!

 

Once your paint is dry use E6000 to glue the dish and candleholder together.

 

Put your favorite festive treat on top and enjoy!
