A beautiful food display complements the rest of the wedding décor. Make sure your vegetable food bar looks as good as it tastes with this fresh and modern display stand.
I took a selection of individual vegetables and showcased them in a unique way using a few inexpensive supplies and the simple DIY steps below.
This stylish color blocked stand makes a practical and vibrant display for your vegetable bar.

You will need 24 DIY Unfinished Wood Box Frames to make this vegetable display stand.
First, paint all of the box frames white.
Next, take 6 of the DIY Unfinished Wood Box Frames and paint the inside of the frames blush.
Next, use painters tape to create a diagonal line across the inside of 6 more of the frames. Leave one side white and paint the other side of the diagonal blush.
Before gluing, place the boxes together to determine which boxes will be at the front of the display stand. On these boxes use painters tape to create a diagonal on the front side of the boxes on the top and far side.
Paint one half of the diagonal blush.
For the 2 bottom / central boxes paint the entire front side of the box blush.
Once dry, lay out the bottom layer of boxes.
6 in the middle are upside down. The 2 that have a fully painted front side are at the front.
6 on the left follow the design above, as do those on the right.
Once they are lined up, use Elmer's® Wood Glue to secure them in place.
Finally, place the remaining 6 boxes painted side up on top of the middle 6 boxes. Follow the design above and glue in place.
Once the boxes are secure fill them with a selection of individual serve vegetables and garnishes.
Use Premium Clear Plastic Tumblers for small pickles (cornichon), pearl onions and seeds.
Use Mini Square Appetizer Bowls for vegetable shooters, you can provide a range of different vegetables with their own dips in individual cups to avoid double dipping and allow more time for mingling.
Mini Pedestal Clear Cups are the perfect size for garnishes like sunflower or pomegranate seeds.
I also filled 2 boxes with wheat grass. There are so many options with this versatile display and fun-sized serving dishes.
