  Step 1

  Find or purchase a wooden tray. Mine had been used for gardening so I cleaned it up first and now it is ready for a coat of paint.

• 

  Step 2

  Using a medium to large paint brush, add 2-3 coats of acrylic paint using the color you want to be the base color.

• 

  Step 3

  I made a stencil out of vinyl using a digital paper cutter, but you can do the same using an exacto knife to cut out your stencil.

• 

  Step 4

  Using transfer paper, apply your stencil to the bottom of your tray. Apply 2-3 coats of your secondary color, let dry, and remove stencil. On mine I ended up liking the look of the stencil on the tray, so I left it on there instead of painting on my secondary color and removing it.

  Step 5

  Once the paint has dried, apply 1-2 coats of Mod Podge to seal your tray.

  Step 6

  Once the Mod Podge is dry (follow instructions on the bottle), enjoy your *new* tray by enjoying some hot tea or serving pastries to your friends!
