DIY Waterproof Q Tip Tray
When Q-tips challenged us to create a craft using their versatile cotton swabs, we thought it would be such a fun idea to make a waterproof bathroom tray with them! A useful piece you can add to a bathroom shelf to hold products that has some quirky charm to it! It’s pretty easy to make too and you can get creative with designs and colors!

Step 1
Remove all stickers and clean the enamel tray.
-
Step 2
Plan out your design with the Q-tips before you start to glue. We went with a Chevron-type pattern.
-
Step 3
Once you have the design, line up each Q-tip and add super glue to the bottom of each cotton swab.
-
Step 4
Place it back in the enamel tray and let the design dry fully about 30 minutes.
-
Step 5
You’ll likely use all 4 bottles of Mod Podge on this one tray. Start to fill it in with the glue until all of the Q-tips are covered in it. Use about 2 bottles for this.
-
Step 6
Release any bubbles and let it dry, and then add 2 more bottles of glue to give it a nice smooth layer to set products on.
-
Step 7
You can always paint the bottom of the tray a color before you start your design too!
-
Step 8
Once it’s dry, it’s waterproof and you can set products in it!
