Before I begin...if you sent me a photo of your tray and you don't see it here it please resend it to me. I did my best to put these all in a folder on my computer as soon as I received them but I could have easily lost some in my unorganized, out-of-control email inbox!You may remember my cottage-style tray that I made last month. So many of you said you were going to try this project too so I thought it would be fun to share everyone's projects here on my blog! The first one at the very top there is from "M" at Tales from an OC Cottage. Did you notice the little seashell feet? So adorable!
Mary from Mary's Meanderings made the one above. Love the cherubs, lace and teacup theme...very Victorian chic!
Sandy made this beautiful tray above. I love the aqua color under the vintage hankie and that frame she used is gorgeous!
Here is Donna's beautiful Paris-themed tray! How fun and what a great idea this would be to remember a wonderful vacation.
The tray above is from KayLee from Divine Vintage. I love the colors!!! Those embroidered hankies are gorgeous!
This is from Violetlady at Home. She used a beautiful piece of vintage lace for hers. What a great way to display this piece!
This tray above is from Tinker. She said she chose fabric so she could easily change the look by just changing the fabric. Great idea!
This tray was made by my former mother-in-law's sister, Cathy. The beautiful hankie she used belonged to their mother. Cathy also made this beautiful tray below...
It's made from old photographs of her and her husband Al! The photos in the middle are from the Senior Ball. Cathy and Al will be celebrating their 50th anniversary in October. They sure don't look old enough to be married 50 years!!!
This beautiful tray is from Betty. She used a place mat from the Martha Stewart collection at Kmart for inside her tray. I love the contrast of the dark frame with the white lace! It reminds me of something you would see in an upscale hotel!

Thank you all so much for allowing me to share your trays with everyone! That was so much fun. I'll have to come up with another project and try this again sometime.
I'm off work today and Lauren and I will be hitting the stores for back-to-school shopping! Have a great weekend! Don't forget, today is the last day to enter my giveaway!
The trays are so pretty. What great ideas everyone had. Your blog is always so inspiring.

ReplyDeleteDear Miss Cindy,
ReplyDeleteSooooo many creative people on God's green earth, eh? Thanks for sharing so many wonderful options of one method. Isn't it amazing how many different ones came from the same idea? Each one is probably unique to the individual who made it for their very own reasons. I loved it. Thanks...

ReplyDeleteThese trays are darling! I am going to have to try this for our guest room -- I keep a little tray in there with bottled water and glasses on it for guests -- one of these little lacey or vintage-fabric trays would be perfect!
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas -- you have talented readers!
