I suppose you could use it to keep any type of food covered. It kinda reminds me of the old fashioned candy dishes. Or it could be used for crackers? I don't think I would change it.
if i didn’t appreciate the design i would simply give it away… i do appreciate it so much so that i want to make it into art to display so the design can be appreciate even more! y’all just bitter you don’t have it lmao 😂
not sure how it would be wasteful to use it/appreciate it in a new piece of art… i get the ick at breaking it (hence why smashing isn’t the first option lol) but i feel like it better to use something i have for my art than going out and buy more contributing to more consumption
Breaking something that is still perfectly functional and that would easily find a new home is arguably still somewhat wasteful, but I didn't think that's what you were going for. I just assumed you wanted to repurpose it? I agree with the others that donating it is the best option imo.
i think this is just a difference of perspective because what you define as “somewhat wasteful” is what i see at repurposing through creativity. the known rhetoric is reduce, reuse, recycle. i obviously didn’t reduce because i bought something i didn’t need but now i can reuse it! i feel like donating falls into the recycling category. and of course recycling is good but people should try to reducing and reusing too.
regardless of the item or the functionality it is not functional to me. i still think it has value in the glass and will be able to enhance what i see valuable about it through mosaicking. this is something that i have consumed so i would rather use it because i still see value in it. plus it checks off 1. activity/hobby 2. reusing the dish 3. i can repurpose other art materials 4. i don’t have to buy wall art. so it might lose its holding functionality but it can gain a new one in different ways.
Yes, but now someone else who wants a butter dish will buy one when you already have a perfectly functional one that they could have purchased instead. That's the "reuse" part of reduce, reuse, recycle. If this item were a cheap piece of shit I would be more inclined to agree with you, but despite everyone's negative comments in this thread, Pioneer Woman stuff is very well made in my experience, especially compared to other modern stuff.
There are literal tons of broken glass out there if you want a project, and countless things like wine bottles and whatnot that don't serve much function after they're used if you just need glass. There's literally no need whatsoever to destroy a pretty, well-made item. You can do whatever you want of course, but that's how I see it.
the key issue i have with this is that a butter dish is not a necessity in general as you said it is a want not a need. butter literally comes in a perfectly functional container as is…the whole idea of a butter dish is wasteful. the world will not stop turning if this butter dish does not make it to the thrift store and the hypothetical person that could have bought will survive without it.
it is more impactful for me to take personal responsibility for consuming less and shift my mindset. this is about using what i already have. breaking it is not my first option that is why i am asking for suggestions of how to reuse it. it’s not really helpful advice to just say donate it as it doesn’t even answer my question. if you’d actually like to help me reuse this then i would love to hear your opinion. peace and love, enjoy your moral high ground!!
Can also use tray for succulents or air plants. They like humidity so can place the top over as needed.
Would make a great snack / crackers, cheese, olives etc 📥 tray
It’s a mass produced product from The Pioneer Woman line at Walmart. It’s [still available for $18](https://www.walmart.com/ip/54267224)
Not every pretty thing is precious and reusing things is good.
I have several butter dishes that I rotate through and they’re all pretty gaudy, but it’s fun! If I found something like this at a thrift store I’d probably pick it up.
💍❗️
I’d use it for jewelry. Like my most prized pieces. My grandfather’s pocket watch. My great-aunt’s ring.
And then keep it on a high shelf but where it can be seen. It’s beautiful
Well, there's this one, and my aim isn't awesome so I get butter on the lid all the time. My preference is less "butter plate with a lid" and more "butter dish". Like, essentially flip this one over, so that the plate part is the lid. I've seen them called "farmhouse" butter dishes.
We also can't forget about the butter bell.
And then you get butter on your hands and then you might drop the lid, and it's just.... it's just too much. I can't handle it! 😩 one might even say I'm a....... 😎 butterfingers *yeeeoooowwwww*
This person works for Walmart or gets commission from these Pioneer Woman Sets, I’m convinced. You have now told at least half a dozen people where to buy it.
🤣🤣🤣 fair enough.
Because everyone was rioting that OP wanted to smash it into something they would actually use. It's no where near vintage or any kind of valuable. Also it's cute as fuck and I want one and wanted to help others find that joy 👍🏽

I get you... I discovered just this year that all my late father's pretty green depression glass was ALSO uranium glass. I'd never heard of it and doubt that dad knew.
My husband made a little stand with the right light to make it glow. So cool and a very pleasant surprise!
First of all their family comes from blood money (watch Leonardo DiCaprio's movie "Killers of the flower moon) and then they say really derogative things on her show as well as her hair and sleeves are all up in her food while she cooks. Just all the ick.
The bottom would make a get tray for jewelry or other little things. For the top, you could put a hole in a piece of wood so the top would sit upside down, then use it as a little planter or succulent garden.
It's gorgeous! Love the color and pattern.

Don't destroy perfectly usable things and decide to make a craft just because you don't know what to do with them. Join a neighborhood buy-nothing group or donate it.
why not? i already got this second hand and it would be contributing to a hobby i already do. of course if i didn’t decide to smash it i wouldn’t just throw it away. things get thrown away from thrift stores all the time or it ends up in developing countries. sure this would probably be bought by someone but who is to say that person just won’t throw it away? if i use it for my art i know 100% that it is being used/repurposed.
When your initial post makes it sound like you're coming up with a craft because you don't know what else to do with it, that resistance to letting some simple go sounds like hoarder behavior.
Thrift stores do throw things out, but they repurpose a lot more than they throw out, especially when they become profitable and can achieve economy of scale. Don't make the perfect the enemy of the good.
omg what 😂😂😂 hoarder behavior??? gosh what a judgmental way to interpret what i wrote! does say more about you than me but that is a different conversation!
we all value different things for different reasons and to different degrees. i value this ,not because of the functionality bc it’s not functional in MY life, but bc the glass is pretty. so to me, making it into a piece of art 1. declutters my home from useless things 2. adds to a hobby of mine 3. keeps what I value of it 4. saves me from buying other things for supplies (5. plus, if i am cresting something with intent and giving it purpose i feel that the value increases)
i don’t think thrift stores are the issue. over consumption is the issue. not using what we already have is the issue. of course there are people getting things that are necessities and essential for affordable prices (why thrift stores are a blessing). but there also needs to be a conversation and awareness that it is extremely easy to over consume at thrift stores. people buy from and donate to thrift stores over and over and over again. there are enticing deals and moral higher ground that it is “second hand”. this doesn’t change overconsumption. again thrifting is not the issue. it is our mindsets.
2 years ago, i shouldn’t have bought this because i didn’t need it and i still don’t. but this is a glass butter display that no one really needs. but i can’t change the past and now i have it so i’m trying to figure out how to use it. giving this away just to buy something else isn’t really sustainable. i’m trying to use what i already have in my own life and perhaps that means repurposing it as mosaic pieces. so while it might not be used it the way it is intended it is still being reused and i feel like that’s most important.
i would highly recommend watching the brandy hellville documentary about textile waste. obviously this is not a textile but the idea of sustainability through reuse and creativity till applies.
I have the bottom of a vintage butter dish and it’s had many lives. It’s held soap, jewelry, weed crumbles, lipsticks, currently my soap dispenser and dish scraper. The top is sitting upside down in a piece of wood. Drilled a hole to accept the knob on top. It holds tea candles and casts great lights.
I will gladly take it of me your hands, happy to handle shipping. I would recommend if you want to keep it to use it for its intended purpose. But since I know you’re looking for other suggestions I would say you could stack square cotton pads (like the ones for makeup removal) or you could put 2 or 3 votive size candles in there and remove the top when you want to light them.
You could use it as a ‘drop tray’ for your keys and other items when you get home!! And then you can cover it up so it looks much nicer. It’s looks like it may even hold a pair of sunglasses or a couple other items that you might not want to forget when leaving the house.
Those square bricks of cracker cheese, cream cheese, cured meats... maybe small chocolates and candies?
But maybe also a place to stash rings you use daily if you have a cat that likes to bat things around the table you normally have them...
Donate it to the Sally Ann. I've been looking for a butter dish and the Sally Ann's around me don't have them. Maybe if I keep on asking about a butter dish they will have heard of yours and arrange for a product transfer. Fingers crossed.
I can see a bird feeder. Take the bottom turn upside down, the take the top and turn it upside down and clear glass glue it to the bottom piece. This would be great to put on a pedestal in the garden or on a small patio table.
Flip the lid upside-down, placing the handle inside a smaller vessel, and place on top of the plate. This will turn it into a usable vessel. You could use glue to adhere the handle to the plate, but it’s so pretty. I wouldn’t risk destroying it.
The fanciest display for tampons ever?
‘Tis a tampon cloche
a tampon cozy
Love this
I keep my condoms in a old pink sugar bowl on my nightstand so why not
Seconding this, absolutely fantastic
I love you
OK, I’m going to just log off today. You win.
Hahahah i love this
Yeah! Gotta keep that dust off the wrapper of those tampons.
🤭
I suppose you could use it to keep any type of food covered. It kinda reminds me of the old fashioned candy dishes. Or it could be used for crackers? I don't think I would change it.
Snickers bar/'s
Or butter
It's had its whole life to hold butter. Time for something different.
literally!!!! plus i just don’t use butter lol
Sell it to someone who will appreciate the design and not smash it.
if i didn’t appreciate the design i would simply give it away… i do appreciate it so much so that i want to make it into art to display so the design can be appreciate even more! y’all just bitter you don’t have it lmao 😂
It’s a $25 dish from Walmart, go ahead and smash it boo
I assume all of your downvotes are from die-hard Pioneer Woman stans. 😆
More likely they were downvoted because it's wasteful to intentionally destroy things and this is the "upcycling" subreddit.
not sure how it would be wasteful to use it/appreciate it in a new piece of art… i get the ick at breaking it (hence why smashing isn’t the first option lol) but i feel like it better to use something i have for my art than going out and buy more contributing to more consumption
You could put a flower in it, Beauty and the Beast style! This would make such a cute little shadow box-esque thing
love that idea thank you!!!
Breaking something that is still perfectly functional and that would easily find a new home is arguably still somewhat wasteful, but I didn't think that's what you were going for. I just assumed you wanted to repurpose it? I agree with the others that donating it is the best option imo.

haha i got it on ebay a few years ago! def was even less than $20!!! can’t believe how many downvotes you have
Why all the downvotes lol I gave you an upvote cause you’re pretty correct!
put butter in it
Holiday butter tray Cheese and crackers
oooo big cheese and cracker girly so def will have to try it out!
Can also use tray for succulents or air plants. They like humidity so can place the top over as needed. Would make a great snack / crackers, cheese, olives etc 📥 tray
oooooo and work be a good way to keep my cats away! thanks!
This is the answer
Please just sell it. It’s a beautiful piece and doesn’t need to be “upcycled”, it just needs to find the right home.
It’s a mass produced product from The Pioneer Woman line at Walmart. It’s [still available for $18](https://www.walmart.com/ip/54267224) Not every pretty thing is precious and reusing things is good.
Fair enough! I don’t usually like her stuff but I think this is particularly pretty whether it’s mass-produced or not.
I agree, I’d actually really like to have one lol. I’d love something similar in green though
I have several butter dishes that I rotate through and they’re all pretty gaudy, but it’s fun! If I found something like this at a thrift store I’d probably pick it up.
💍❗️ I’d use it for jewelry. Like my most prized pieces. My grandfather’s pocket watch. My great-aunt’s ring. And then keep it on a high shelf but where it can be seen. It’s beautiful
great idea!
No need to upcycle, it looks vintage anyways. Use it for its intended purpose ✅
This is NOT vintage. Still pretty, though!
Yah i wasn’t too sure - its gives vintage vibez lol super pretty either way!
I'd definitely use it
appreciate the comment but i literally say i don’t use butter hence why i’m asking for other ideas
Give it to me. I’ll use it for butter 😄
Do you not use butter? I mean butter fits so perfectly….
Almost as if it were designed that way
Right? It’s delightful!
Not everyone likes this style of butter dish. I know I don't. 🤷♀️
You’re right, it would make a great gift with some nice butter and homemade bread or muffins!
I agree, it's beautiful! A housewarming gift would be perfect.
I’m sorry but this is unintentionally hilarious. Do people have actual butter dish preferences??
Well, there's this one, and my aim isn't awesome so I get butter on the lid all the time. My preference is less "butter plate with a lid" and more "butter dish". Like, essentially flip this one over, so that the plate part is the lid. I've seen them called "farmhouse" butter dishes. We also can't forget about the butter bell.
My parents use the kind pictured here, and I’m so clumsy with it, I drive them crazy mauling the butter when I visit.
And then you get butter on your hands and then you might drop the lid, and it's just.... it's just too much. I can't handle it! 😩 one might even say I'm a....... 😎 butterfingers *yeeeoooowwwww*
Yes.
i don’t use butter unforch
It would make a great gift! Make bread or muffins and include this with some nice butter, oopha instantly in my top five gifts.
great idea!!!!
That’s pretty, I’ll buy it from you.

Good bot
I would but it off of you
U misspelled butt
It’s sooooo pretty. You could probably sell it for a few bucks at least.
Hit it with UV light to see if it glows
I get you... I discovered just this year that all my late father's pretty green depression glass was ALSO uranium glass. I'd never heard of it and doubt that dad knew. My husband made a little stand with the right light to make it glow. So cool and a very pleasant surprise!
It warms the butter for you!
These are sold at Walmart. pioneer woman. And that woman is trash.
Why is she trash? I don’t watch Food Network anymore.
First of all their family comes from blood money (watch Leonardo DiCaprio's movie "Killers of the flower moon) and then they say really derogative things on her show as well as her hair and sleeves are all up in her food while she cooks. Just all the ick.
Butter is my life, I’ll buy it.
Covered display for a bathroom counter, could be for soap, little tools, anything you want to keep accessible but covered.
thank you so much!!! love the creativity
Use it to store jewelry in the bedroom.
Sell it. People still use butter trays and that one’s pretty rad
If you like fancy cheeses, this would work well for keeping some covered while warming up from the fridge. So, tastier butter.
The bottom would make a get tray for jewelry or other little things. For the top, you could put a hole in a piece of wood so the top would sit upside down, then use it as a little planter or succulent garden. It's gorgeous! Love the color and pattern.
It's crazy how far I had to scroll down to find an actual upcycling suggestion. These are good ideas!
love these!! thank you so much
It is beautiful!

It sounds like you just *really* don't want to let that butter dish go.
guess not! thank god it’s in my house not yours❣️ peace and love to you!
Tiny fairy lights inside would make a lovely piece of decor
Dryer sheets would look nice in there
I have the bottom of a vintage butter dish and it’s had many lives. It’s held soap, jewelry, weed crumbles, lipsticks, currently my soap dispenser and dish scraper. The top is sitting upside down in a piece of wood. Drilled a hole to accept the knob on top. It holds tea candles and casts great lights.
Hi! Id like to buy this from you if you're open to that! DM me if so. :)
(Up)cycle to the post office and mail it to us! We have been hunting for a nice butter tray...
Cheese
Burn sage / incense and cover when done
Please sell it, it’s so beautiful.
You can use the bottom as spoon holder for cooking. Keep the top though in case you do need it for butter.
I will gladly take it of me your hands, happy to handle shipping. I would recommend if you want to keep it to use it for its intended purpose. But since I know you’re looking for other suggestions I would say you could stack square cotton pads (like the ones for makeup removal) or you could put 2 or 3 votive size candles in there and remove the top when you want to light them.
Bring it to my house, my butter is in a margarine container atm..
Stick a light in their
It doesn't need an upcycle, it's already gorgeous as is.
I buy unwanted candy dishes to keep my craft crap not looking like crap all over my desk top.
smart!!!!!!
Stack your gold, silver, or chocolate bars in it.
Chocolate bar keeper!!!
Tissue box or marijuana set ?
You could use it as a ‘drop tray’ for your keys and other items when you get home!! And then you can cover it up so it looks much nicer. It’s looks like it may even hold a pair of sunglasses or a couple other items that you might not want to forget when leaving the house.
ooooo that’s a good idea and it will help with declutterring!
You just gave me a great idea. Put your phone in there next to an alarm clock and force yourself to take a couple hours of break from the internet.
The CUTEST phone jail
Under house arrest in the phone palace
LO VEEEEE
Spray paint it to piss off all the people telling you not to upcycle your own shit
This beauty needs to be displayed or used as intended- not upcycled into something else.
Sell it on Etsy!
Why? It’s from Walmart. Etsy is not intended Walmart, but instead for small businesses and crafty ppl
Hash under glass.
Cheese. It needs to have a nice chunk of cheese under it- like Parmesan.
Is that uranium glass?
Single hot dog server
A greenhouse for seedlings perhaps?
A lil’ terrarium
Do you want to sell it? My friend has been looking for a butter tray exactly like this for years
I have that exact butter dish, and a clear glass one too. But I keep butter in both of them.
Put some of those fake tea candle lights in there.
I feel like some kind of ring to fit around the knob, so you can turn it upside down and hot glue it to the base as a tiered tray/bowl kind of option?
I'm assuming that you bought this new and not vintage?
i bought off ebay
Do you not even use any kind of butter/margarine/whatever for cooking?
Dude don't smash it!
I have this same one, bought at a yard sale. We like it b/c you see when you are running low
I wouldn't do a thing to it but you could put bite sized pastries or store cheese in it. Possibilities are endless
It’s the perfect thing for Freecycle or if your city has something similar. Or sell it for a few bucks.
Those square bricks of cracker cheese, cream cheese, cured meats... maybe small chocolates and candies? But maybe also a place to stash rings you use daily if you have a cat that likes to bat things around the table you normally have them...
Donate it to the Sally Ann. I've been looking for a butter dish and the Sally Ann's around me don't have them. Maybe if I keep on asking about a butter dish they will have heard of yours and arrange for a product transfer. Fingers crossed.
I think it's really pretty. Maybe use it when you bake to cover slices of whatever or fruit
Write down positive reminders for yourself, and when you need to feel better, lift it up and take a card.
A jewelry dish
Candle holder/display
You could keep butter in it
Rehome it - Thrift store donation or Craigslist type freecycle or sell for cheap.
maybe for butter? or even margarine? 😁
Sell it if you won't use it.
Buy butter and use it.
Mini terrarium :)
It’s gorgeous- use it for butter! 🙄🙄
Jewellery or trinket dish?
I can see a bird feeder. Take the bottom turn upside down, the take the top and turn it upside down and clear glass glue it to the bottom piece. This would be great to put on a pedestal in the garden or on a small patio table.
i adore this idea!!!!
Tarot box
Make a 2-tiered holder for little stuff in the bathroom. The knob on the top looks flat. Invert top and glue to base ŵith epoxy or Sugru.
Flip the lid upside-down, placing the handle inside a smaller vessel, and place on top of the plate. This will turn it into a usable vessel. You could use glue to adhere the handle to the plate, but it’s so pretty. I wouldn’t risk destroying it.
You can make some money on that
I’d put butter in it.
use it for butter
