This tray was out of necessity. Having purchased new black stainless steel appliances, I was in need of a new tray. I like to de-clutter by putting things into a tray, also making it easier to tidy up when necessary.
This tray was purchased at a local thrift store so it has been re-purposed. I get so anxious to get things done that I forget to take before pictures when in the process of redoing them. First, I sanded then I put a couple of layers of BIN Zinsser on it. When all was dry two coats of Rustoleum Charcoal paint was applied, topped with a layer of Rustoleum White Linen paint by dry brushing. Adding one of my favorite stencils is always something that adds some character and interest to a piece. To add durability Minwax 3X Polyurethane was applied.
There you have it. Something new from something old.
