Everyone loves a good DIY for wooden pedestal dishes.

When I first saw these I thought it was a great idea and I wanted to make my own.  


I found the wooden bowls and the wooden candle sticks at my local Goodwill.

I used Gorilla wood glue to attach the candle sticks to the bowls.

When the paint was dry I distressed the edges with sandpaper.

I sprayed the pedestal dishes with clear sealer to protect and seal the finish and they are ready to go! 


Couldn't be easier!
