DIY COFFEE TABLE TRAY

I've been s-l-o-w-l-y working on projects and it seems as though I have a million of them going at once.

I'm happy to say I finally have one complete and off my to craft list, and that is this coffee table tray.

I started with a piece of flat board and some 2 x 1's I found in the garage....hmm I think those are 2 x 1's, I'm no professional wood worker ok.


I cut and sanded my wood pieces down to size so they all fit nicely together to create a tray. I used wood glue and small nails to keep it all together.


Next I painted the tray using two coats of my Behr Black Suede interior paint from Home Depot.

Once the paint was completely dry I enlisted my little assistant to help me sand the tray down to give it the worn, primitive look.


To complete the tray look I added these window pulls I purchased from Home Depot. They were a lot cheaper than  any of the handles in the knobs and handle section and I liked that they looked a little more shabby and worn looking.


At the last minute I remembered I needed to give this baby a coat of my Mini Wax Dark Walnut Stain.

There she is all done!!
