Easy DIY Donut Stand For Your Party

by

This DIY Donut stand is so easy to make. For this DIY Donut stand all you need is some basic tools and a ready-made A-frame board. This A-frame board is from k-mart and cost $5. This stand is so quick and easy to make. The prfect addition to your kids party. You can use these donut stands on grazing tables and dessert tables too.

 

It was so cheap to make. The donut holders are made with dowling.

You can buy Dowling rod from your local hardware store. I actually made my Donut stand a little bigger so that it would hold 2 -3 donuts per peg. Use a drill and drill your holes into the board and place your peg inside. I glued mine in with hot glue.

Girl in Meadow Hand Embroidery Pattern – Etsy Review

This one has such a soft, dreamy feel to it. The Girl in Meadow Hand Embroidery Pattern, Floral Design (PDF) from ModaVationStitchery is a digital download on Etsy, priced at AU$3.29 on sale from AU$8.22, and the shop is showing a 5 out of 5 star rating. Etsy lists it as a craft supply download with 2 PDF files included.

What makes this design appealing is the calm, nature-filled look. The listing describes it as a girl sitting in a meadow surrounded by flowers, with flowing hair, delicate blooms, and grass, and it is clearly aimed at stitchers who enjoy feminine hoop art and floral scenes rather than cartoonish motifs. It feels like the sort of project that would look lovely framed in a hoop for a bedroom, reading corner, or handmade gift.

There are some nice practical details too. The listing says the pattern comes in 6 hoop sizes ranging from 3 inches to 8 inches, and it includes a stitch guide, thread colour suggestions, and an Embroidery Guide for Beginners. That gives it a bit more support than a bare-bones printable, even though the seller is also clear that this is design-only and does not include step-by-step instructions.
