Bren’s Make-A-Day Tray



Bren’s Make-A-Day Tray, originally uploaded by BrynnB.

Have had some of these unfinished trays around from a “too good to resist” sale a long time ago. always intended to finish them off, but just ended up using them as “project trays” around the house. A few days back I painted one, then the next day I collaged it with left-over scraps of paper and ephemera from the rolodex project. Then when that was dry I mixed and poured a layer of resin so it would wipe clean after use. It will be a nice coffee tray. WHO WANTS COFFEE?

While I was at it I did a little refurbishing of the large tray I used to use to clear the table. My brother built it a long time ago. It’s been down in my craft room forever awaiting a new coat of paint and some new sealant. Now it’s presentable again.

I was happy to get these projects accomplished and proud that I didn’t buy anything to get them done. Used up bits of paint, sealant, resin and paper to make something useful. Can I get a “good job, Mom”?
