Yesterday I shared some snippets of kitchen. In one of the pictures was a tray/platter that I picked up from IKEA for 70 cents
I knew that it I was going to paint it so I didn’t care about the design. I pulled out my last little bit of Annie Sloan chalk paint and got to work
Remember that you don’t have to prime with chalk paint
Because my chalk paint had gotten super thick after sitting up for the past few months, I had to add water to it. Because of the added water, I had to apply two coats of paint (Chalk Paint is so thick that you usually can get away with one coat of it) .
Finished! Now I have something I can corral things that end up on my counters
This project was super easy. I could have used latex paint on it as well with a thin layer of primer first. Now, I need to go find some baskets for my cabinets without the doors!
What small project have you gotten around to lately?!

Much better :) Chalk paint does wonders, you should share this tip at the Cinch party! Have a great day.
Simple and fabulous! I'm going to copy you! Janell
What a great idea and so easy! I also love your color choice.
Painting the tray made such a difference. I love the soft color.
I love your results, such a pretty colour!
