These adorable stands can be used for a variety of purposes like candles, plants, and decorative items! So easy to make and will add dimension and height for more visual and organized arrangements!
Difficulty level:Beginner
Time to complete: 45 minutes
Things you’ll need:
- Unfinished Wood Plaques (I choose 4, 5, 6 inch circles)
- 1″ Unfinished Wood Balls
- FolkArt Home Decor White Adirondack Chalk Paint
- DecoArt Americana Weathered Wood Crackle Medium
- Paint Brush
- Glue Gun
Let’s gather your supplies and let’s get crafting!
First step – Applying the Medium
This step you will want to grab all the pieces you wish to have that ‘crackle’ look. I just added it to the top and bottom of the plaques. Cover all surfaces and let them dry completely.
Second Step – Add your color of choice
Here i chose to make them a chalk white color. This allowed them to be more matte color than have to much shine. Paint a nice even coat of the paint over the plaques. Set those aside once all covered to dry — Watch the magic happen 🪄
Third Step – Paint the Feet
Here you will grab your 1 inch wooden balls. Paint these all over and let them dry.
Forth Step – Add Protection
After all wood pieces were dry, i then added a nice even coat of Mod Podge. This will then help protect from chipping and surface wear and tear.
Fifth Step – Add your feet
Grab your glue gun and glue on the painted wooden balls for the feet. This will create a not height for your riser.
Once the riser is completely dry, it’s ready to be used to display your items with farmhouse charm.
