DIY: Tj Max inspired cake stand

This DIY is inspired by a cake stand from Tj Max. I saw it on instagram and had to have it! Naturally, I searched three different Tj Max's trying to find it. Three stores down and no luck!! So, when all else fails….DIY! 

What you need:

I found this cake stand at hobby lobby, it was 50% off glassware on that particular day. (you can look out for their glassware discounts by receiving store emails and looking at their weekly newsletters) 

Gold metallic paint- martha stewart at Michael's ( I believe it was $2.99, I downloaded the Michael's app on my phone, and saved 40%)

*There is absolutely nothing to this DIY but painting, it took me four coats to make the gold really stand out*
