Tiers make your buffet not only interesting, but also provide additional space for serving platters. If you have limited room on your table this is a good way to maximize it without overcrowding. Also, tiers are easily decorated to enhance the theme of your party.
Assembling Tiers:
- Purchase a large cardboard tube, which can be found at most packing supply stores. Cut the tube into three different heights, for example 12", 9" & 6".
- If you don't have time to get a tube, you can use common household items such as telephone books, large cans or place a mixing bowl upside down.
- Please note that groupings of three are ideal for decorating.
- To cover the tubes you can use wrapping paper, moss or material remnants. It can be glued, stapled or simply tucked under.
- Place a title, wood piece or a decorative flat surface on top of the tube. It is important to make sure it is stable.
- Then place your platter on top of the tile.
- Scatter other decorative items in and around the base of the tier. These can include leaves, rocks or other items found around the house depending on the theme.
