DIY Chalkboard Tray

I hope you had a blessed Thanksgiving weekend.  We had a houseful of people, but it was a great time of catching up and spending time together!

Today I'm sharing another fun DIY that would be a perfect gift for a host/ hostess or anyone who loves to entertain or cook.  This project is a rustic wood slab chalkboard tray with handles that stands on some cute little legs.   It's extremely versatile and can be used from the kitchen to the bedroom. 

I use trays all over my house to corral items and create vignettes.  They are good for keeping remotes, books, candles, stacking plates, holding plants or displaying drinks or appetizers for a meal.

Chalk

Instructions:

1. Tape off the part of the tray that you want to paint and paint on your chalkboard paint.

2. Glue feet on the wood slab tray and let dry.

3. Mark holes and using a drill, drill holes for the handles. 

4. Attach handles with screws.

We recently hosted our family for Thanksgiving and instead of cooking the night before, we ordered pizzas and made a salad and appetizer plate.  I don't know about you, but Wednesday night before Thanksgiving there will be no cooking in this house!  This tray was the perfect thing to display a variety of cheeses and meats for serving!

To life feeling like home!
