I am gradually making a few changes to update our family room/ kitchen/meals area. Anna, from Ethos Design has given us some great ideas for modernizing our room. As you may recall, we are introducing some seafoam/turquoise and white into the room to freshen it up. We have ordered a few items, including fabrics for new table runners and cushions. One project I could get started on straight away was a Wooden Tray Make-over.
I had an old pine wooden tray, purchased for a previous home that had a country cottage kitchen.
I lightly sanded it, and then used a can of white gloss spray paint to brighten it up. It brings a brighter colour to our Tasmanian Oak coffee table and also provides the perfect space to corral a few accessories. The spray paint cost $2.95 so it was a budget friendly recycling project.
Hope to have some more room updates over the coming weeks.

Looks cool…
Oh I LOVE your tray- it looks really good! I might just borrow your idea- I have a blue tray I never use anymore….
I love this! What a great project!
This is a great way to liven up an old item, and coordinate with you new theme. I love the crisp whiteness of the tray. I love maps and travel themes so the map is a perfect addition. Fun to update your decor with simple projects like this, isn’t it.
Love it Lisa! It’s perfect for your space and I love the little bottle you have too. I’m looking forward to seeing your new pillows! 🙂
I have a collection of wooden trays that I was saving. This will be the perfect project for them. Thanks for the ideas.
