I love thrifting at estate and garage sales because I am fascinated with finding ways of repurposing vintage treasures. I discovered that vintage records came in an interesting variety of sizes. I have one that is 16 inches across and several that are from the days when you could record your own sounds onto vinyl at home. When I found a small record with a small hole {usually the smaller, 45 rpm records had large center holes} I decided to use it for a home décor display.Record_tier2

I combined the vintage records with pieces of a tiered tidbit dish. I disassembled the stem and replaced the dishes with two sizes of records. This worked because the smaller record had a small hole. I haven’t found many of these but I always feel lucky when I find them.Record_detail2

 

These would make a great display for cupcakes or candies at a 50s themed party. The best part is that the older records are much thicker than modern ones so they can hold up nicely. Enjoy!
