Hey everyone!

I have a quick DIY project for you today using something that’s accessible to everyone-

you probably already have one- or can easily find one at your local goodwill- a TRAY!

Here’s how I transformed mine:

{boring ol‘ tray- no pizazz to this little guy ๐Ÿ™ }

{First: I cut fabric to fit the base- and used Mod Podge (love the smell!) to adhere it on}

{Second: I cut out a felt “R” and glued him to the corner of the tray}


{Third: I took left-over buttons and glued them onto my felt “R”}


{Here’s a closer look!}

{Fourth: I took some ribbon and my hot glue gun and outlined the inside of the tray}

{The lines you see from the Mod Podge will go away when it’s dry}

{Fifth: Put all of your goodies back inside!}


Pretty cool, huh? I love personalizing things!

And while we’re on the subject- I am in LOVE with this new pillow I made for my shop.

It took me a little over 2 hours to make- {I hand stitched} and I love how it turned out!

Songbirds and Pretty Trays,
