Altered Wood Tray

Here is another project making use of items I found in my art room! This is an old bric-a-brac tray I bought for fifty cents at Goodwill many, many moons ago. I dusted it off and used Aleene’s Collage Pauge Instant Decoupage Glossy, old stamps, handmade paper and Crafty Chica rose paper to line the insides. I then used Crafty Chica paints on the outside and the edges, covered the paper with a layer of ATG, and then sealed it all in high gloss varnish!

Now I have a happy tray for my workspace there I can store my favorite writing utensils and such. I really dig this idea because office desk supplies are so bland and expensive at the store. This way you can go to the thrift store where they have stacks of these wood trays, and decorate them in your own style!

Peace, love, and glitter!
