Aldi's 3-Tiered Solution Would Look Beautiful As A Dining Room Centerpiece This Spring

As spring rolls around, you may feel the urge to change the decorative elements in your home into something more appropriate for the season. As such, you might already be considering how to refresh your home for spring by filling your bedroom, living room, or entryway with spring-themed decor such as flowers, wreaths, or faux eggs. However, make sure you don't skip the dining room! This space is often an entertaining hub, so it can be a great place to fill with seasonal decor to fill you and your guests with the joy of spring.

Aldi recently released a new Crofton Tiered Server for $12.99 with details that will fit right into your spring decor. The stand comes in two designs — a light blue floral one and a pink bow option — so you can pick the one that best suits your existing color scheme. In addition, the scalloped edge on the plates gives them a quaint, cottage-like feel, perfect for adding some whimsy to your table. Each stand features a central metal pole that slots into three stacked plates. 

It does require some at-home assembly. Customers who have purchased similar tiered cake stands from Aldi have mentioned that they can be difficult to put together, so it may be easiest to wash the server by hand after each use to avoid having to take it apart and reassemble. Once you have your new whimsical tiered stand put together, it can serve as a stunning centerpiece for your dining table and be styled in various ways. 

This 3-tiered cake stand solution has a sweet design, and some Aldi shoppers want to use it as a gift for Mother's Day. However, if you decide to grab one for yourself, how can you style it in your own home? Well, the stand could be placed at the center of the table and surrounded by pieces in similar styles to create a dining room design that is easy to thrift for. For example, you could thrift mismatched teacups with floral patterns that match the blue tiered stand. Alternatively, you could thrift various ribbons in spring colors like pink, yellow, and green, and tie them around items such as candlesticks to match the pink bow cake stand. Aldi also sells the plates in a separate 4-pack, so you could purchase those to go with the cake stand as a matching set.

If you are worried about the bare-metal pole at the center of the cake stand looking too modern to serve as a whimsical accent for your home, you could wrap it with greenery or a string of faux florals to hide the bare metal and give the whole thing a more whimsical feel. The plate stand will likely be taller than most other pieces on your dining table, so remember to place heavier items on the bottom and lighter ones on the top to avoid tipping. If you don't want to use the stand for food or cake, you could fill it with fresh or dried flowers, candles, or practical items often used at the dining table, like napkins and toothpicks.
