I have had this boring brown wood tray forever. I knew one day I would finally get around to giving it a makeover .
The first thing I did was to go on Pinterest and find a few images I wanted to use. Then I decided on the sizes and resized the images using Picasa.
Here is the tray with one coat of pink chalky paint. After the paint was dry I gave the sides a second coat of paint leaving the bottom with just one coat as I was going to cover the whole area with the images anyhow.
And then using good old Mod Podge I glued my images to the tray. And let it dry.
Next I mixed a peachy pink paint and using a small brush blended the edges of the images.
When the Mod Podge was dry I gave all the images another coat of Mod Podge and left brush marks in a criss cross random pattern. Since it is impossible for me to get a smooth finish I decided a random pattern look better.
And here is the finished. I will probably give the whole tray a coat of sealer and it will be ready to use.
Happy Crafting!
