Crafting Project / Remodeled Tray

I had Memorial Day Monday off, so I took this time to finish a crafting project that has been laying around my room for months... oops.

I had been looking for a tray to use on my bed while I am blogging, reading or having a lazy day in bed. My mom brought home one for me one day and knowing my love of antiques she picked out a beautiful wooden one with a rose design on the bottom. I was not a fan of the design but I told her no worries I would remodel it. And that's exactly what I did...

I apologize but I did not take a picture of what the tray before I painted it. I thought I had one on my instagram (itskelly7) but I do not :(

Anyways... these are the supplies I used along with craft paper.
Wood glue
Sponge brush
.75" round hole punch
Clear sealer
Multi-colored craft paper

I first painted the tray white with Gesso because I did not want the bottom of the tray to be glossy, I don't need my things sliding around *wink*

I then picked out my craft paper... and of course there was glitter in there *wink* And then used the .75" round punch to punch the paper. Next I aligned the dots on the tray how I wanted them.

Any craft paper will do but I chose blues and gold sparkles. I am pleased with my choices.

Next I used the sponge brush and the wood glue to coat each dot in a thin layer and stuck them to the tray.

After I let the dots dry I sealed them with the clear sealer... The finish project I think came out beautiful and I am pleased with my new remodeled tray.

Just look at that detail. And the glitter *wink*

*My Thoughts*
I enjoy crafting and remodeling projects. This is one of many to come. Once school ends I hope to do a craft project once a week and share with you what I have created.
I hope this gives you encouragement to do your own project... and feel free to share them with me. I would love to see what other people create.
