I found The Style Sisters not long ago and was instantly drawn to the cake plates..........or maybe it was just the thought of cake. (which by the way I am so addicted to the fat free sour cream angel food cake!.........with strawberries......)
I love cake plates and believe it or not, I don't have one. I have thought many times that I would just make my own. So that's my new goal for my summer yard sailing........find the perfect plate and dish / vase for a cake plate. Love this idea.The Style Sisters are fun, easy going and ready to help. They love a good DIY project, so now you know why I like them. They are WAY more braver..........is that a word?........they have more guts than me......you know what I'm gettin at.
Like this chair.......she decided that she would just recover it herself. Now that's guts. She shows the finished product on her blog. I think that would give my husband a heart attack if I started taking furniture apart. Not that he would be completely surprised though.
Here's another chair she re-did. It was pinkish. Then she added this little skirt. So cute. See, you don't need those expensive designer chairs.........just find some older ones with great lines and paint......paint and paint!
Love the practical ideas I found on their site. A gift wrapping station......perfect. This reminds me that I need to finish mine.
And this table below. Isn't it beautiful? I have that topiary......I knew I liked them. I need a long dish like that one with the tomatoes in it.
Style Sisters is somewhat new, so you know there are so many great ideas to come. I can't wait.
You won't be disappointed........have fun.
edited to add: I have had a few comments wanting the recipe to the sour cream angel food cake. Yes it's true, I usually bake wonderful desserts from scratch........snicker snicker....... Well I wish I could say I baked it, but we buy it from QFC.

I am the Style sister's Daughter! Thanks so much for highlighting them! They are my inspiration for everything. There is nothing better than growing up with a mom, aunt and grandma who can do EVERYTHING! I am glad other people get to experience their talent too!
