DIY rustic serving tray

Hey there guys!~ Today I am sharing how to make a DIY rustic serving tray. I had no intentions of this project when I walked into the Walmart for a quick few grocery snack items. I always get our household snacks there. You can’t beat their prices. The way my men eat around here, I have to be budget friendly on food. Literally, they would put us in the poor house if I was frivolous.

So as I dashed through the isles, like dancer and prancer and comet and cupid, I happened to wind up in the craft section. Go figure.

I spied this cool rustic wood pallet sign. Back in the fall I made a lazy susan and a pallet sign.  The pallet sign wood was also from Walmart but not as rustic as this one here. I loved this piece. It was less than $10.00.

I always have a roll or two of twine on hand. This was a heavier jute I happened to have and just perfect for what I had in mind.

I cut two pieces approximately 9-10 inches or so in size.

Got out my Stanley staple gun and stapled the jute like a handle on the back of the wood.

Brought out my Owl stencil

Same one I used for my linen pillow cover.

I stenciled the owl and just the gather here portion of the stencil.

 

 I love that I can use this tray in the summer time and bring in and outdoor. It will be a great use for entertaining. These DIY rustic trays would also be a great gift idea. For a friends birthday, Mother’s day, etc.

If you are new here, welcome! I am also very excited to share my new stencil line with you.
