Who couldn’t use an attractive serving tray from time to time? For this project, you’ll choose from among a variety of scavenged wood pieces, then, using basic carpentry tools and skills, you’ll assemble a shallow box form. The travertine tile insets can be left plain, or if you prefer, Carole can show you how to transfer an image (like her letter ‘S’ in the sample) from a photocopy. Add matched—or unmatched—upcycled handles and you’ve got a functional piece for your home! (Also looks great as table decor or wall art . . . just add embellishment!)
Happy to take late registrations & walk-ins!
