Serving Trays

I found this idea on http://www.craftynest.com/2008/12/salvaged-cupboard-door-serving-tray/

What you need:
Old cabinet door
Paint
Two handles
Optional: Vinyl or stencil design
How to do it:
Paint a old cabinet door.
Add design
Add handles.
Easy as pie, you have a serving tray. Me and my sister Mandy (hopefully she will post her tray soon) have had lots of ideas of what to do with the fifty old cabinet doors my dad gave us. As soon as we do some of those projects we will post them.

Valentine Blocks


What you need:
2 by 4 piece of wood
Paper
Ribbon
Glue
Scissors
Two X's and two O's (I used my cricut)
How to do it: Cut the 2x4 into 4 blocks. Two of them should be about 6 inches long and the other two should be about 3 1/2 inches long.
Cut out the paper, glue it on. Glue your letters on. Add embellishments. Place ribbon on the side of the blocks.
