I just got back from Arizona where I loved seeing all the beautiful cacti and succulents everywhere and especially the gorgeous and creative succulent terrariums my sister-in-law made in various containers. I was in a mission to drive to one of our favorite places, ReStore (a Habitat for Humanity home supply recycling store and donation site) to grab a light pendant to transform in a beautiful terrarium (I’ll write another post and tutorial about that next week). In the lighting area, I found a pile of these light fixture covers and I couldn’t resist grabbing a few to transform them in beautiful domes for my cake stand collection. Don’t these give the most wonderful vintage flair to cake stands?
You’ll need:
- Light fixture covers – only $2 a piece at my local ReStore
- Knobs from Anthropologie, World Market or Hardware store – cost between $3 to $6 each.
- Fender Washer 1/4″ x 1-1/4″ – costs $0.12 at my local home improvement store.
Total cost : +/- $6 each dome
Oh my, what a great idea!!!!! Beautiful!!!!
Absolutely gorgeous, going to make some for Christmas gifts!! Love 💘 them💕

How clever!
This is a fantastic idea. I’m always looking for covers and these are truly beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Absolutely love repurposed items! Thank you! Please please give use more of your ideas. We must keep our creativity and crafting costs down and teach this generation to reuse. Life I not disposable. Use your imagination and use what you have or seek a frugal solution at thrift stores. And brainstorm with people. We love to share and hear fresh ideas.
I LOVE IT YOU DID AN AWESOME JOB!!!
I have been looking for domes for my many cake stands but they are horribly expensive! This is such a wonderful and pretty idea! Thank you so much!
