Repurposed Pizza Pedestal Dish
First I'm repurposing a pizza pedestal...
you know the steel pie plate that sits high on your table when you eat at a pizza restaurant...
I found it at the thrift store.
I painted the top of the dish with a few coats of Fusion Mineral Paint, then added an image from the Graphics Fairy.

You can read about the transfer method here.
When the image dried I painted the top with Triple Thick which is a spray glaze that makes the paint look shiny.
The image comes out great using this method. If you're looking for perfect don't even try it because it almost never comes out perfect.
At Homeroad everything is distressed and well loved, it's the look I'm going for and the look I love.

That pizza should see this tray now!
I hope you enjoyed this project and you'll take a look at my Amazon Shop for craft supplies I recommend.

Hey Mar so sorry to see you go. I will try to have your email removed but it is through a 3rd party.
DeleteOMG, thank you, thank you for this excellently idea. I have a stand like this, thanks to you, all I need to do is turn it into a pizza stand.
ReplyDeleteGo for it! Wish you could send a pic when you finish it!
DeleteSo beautiful! My question is, Would it be safe to put a pizza on this since it's been painted? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHi Bev, I think I would not put hot pizza on this tray. While the paint is food safe, the sealer may not be good for hot food. Thanks for asking!
DeleteLove the creative pizza tray. This weekend I was at a garden festival and saw a repeat vendor. She takes pretty plates and makes tiered trays. When I asked about some beautiful lavender colored glass, she told me they were clear and she used glass paint to make the colors. Can't wait to try it.

Hey Myrna! I bet the lavender glass was pretty! I did a post once using sea glass colored glass paint and it worked very well! See it here... http://www.homeroad.net/2014/03/diy-sea-glass-votives.html
