Lemonade/Bake Sale Stand


Here is my cute Lemonade/Bake Sale Stand I convinced my son to build for me.

I pinned it on Pinterest and decided I had to have one! I wanted my stand to be multi-functional.  I love to plan parties and wanted to be able to use it for parties, showers, BBQ's etc... Mine is a little bit bigger because we did not want to waste wood- but if I were to do it again- I would make the smaller version- much easier to move around.  I thought it would be a good project for my son and I to work on.  After a few trips to the hardware store we had it framed.  I then spray painted the cedar fencing pieces, sanded then stained the edges and wherever to make then look worn and used.
I had to have a cute banner to hang across the front and up at the top.  Everything is cuter with a banner.  I make my banners by cutting triangles then sewing them inbetween some bias tape that is folded over.  It is so quick and easy!

I saw these cute candy jars on The Wood Connection's blog here and decided to give them a try!  I love them!  I use them now for all my parties.  I still might add another larger wooden piece to the bottom so they are more stable.


For my sign I wanted to be able to use it for different events so I painted it with chalkboard paint.  That way I can change it up each time.  It is also reversable.
