FARMHOUSE TRAY

9 Materials

View materials (9)
We have been redoing our almost 100 year old Farmhouse (very slowly) and finally
after 3 years have a dining room table again! Yippee!!! 😂
I totally changed the look of the table set with paint and stain, but it needed
something. That's when I thought of making a tray. Please keep in mind that I am
not crafty...so this is done the easy way. 😉
Gather Materials
One positive thing about being a hoarder, is that I usually have lots of junk
laying around. For my tray base I found an old cabinet door, a couple drawer
pulls from a dresser, 4 wooden knobs for the feet, and a mold that I planned on
using for decorative features.
Drill Holes
I actually started painting before I realized that I needed holes for the
handles and for the feet. 😬.
I measured and drilled holes for each handle and each knob for the feet. I'm
sure a more crafty person could figure out how to adhere the feet without
drilling a hole all the way through but... I knew I was going to cover them so I
didn't worry. Screw in the feet now so you can paint them with the rest of the
tray.
Creating Molds
I didn't want the screws of feet to show on the top of my tray so I created
little molds to go right over with hot glue.
Adding Hot Glue
This is so simple! You just heat up your hot glue gun and fill the mold. Then
let dry completely before removing. You could totally skip this step if you
don't mind seeing the screws on the tray.
Glue Your Mold
After your mold dries made out of hot glue you just hot glue it right over the
screw. What I like about using hot glue to make the molds is that they are
flexible.
Paint
When you are finished, paint the whole tray with your favorite chalk paint. I
used Retique It paint in Snow. Then if you want..seal with Polyacrylic.
Add your handles
Your last step is to screw in and secure your handles. My favorite hardware is
French provincial pulls that I found, because it gave it a fancier look. Almost
any handles will work.
Finished Look!
I love the way it came out! Who would guess it was an old cabinet door? There is
really so many different fun looks you could do just by choosing different
hardware, paint or feet. Sky's the limit!
Last Note
If you are worried about the feet of your tray scratching your table... Add
little felt pads to the very bottom. 😉
This project costs barely anything since I had most items laying around. Cost of
project can vary.

Did you use rubber molds? The glue doesn't melt the mold or get stuck in it?
I would like to try this.

Finding cabinet doors at places like Goodwill or Restore would be a good
place to get them inexpensively, if you don't have any hanging around.
