So, I’m playing around with my gallery wall, yet again. This time I wanted to add some natural wood and lo and behold, I found a vintage cafeteria tray
.
I was going to do a reverse stencil, but once I got the vinyl on, I really liked the look as it was. I cut the peacock out of vinyl, tracing the image using SCAL.
I used the back side as the front was a little messy, with a cigarette burn and cup ring stains. I decided to leave the stamp that says “Made in Sweden”. I can’t help but wonder if this was originally an Ikea tray? It is made out of wood, not plastic.
Anyway, I added it to my gallery wall and I like how it looks.
I actually laid on the floor to take this shot (the things I do for my blogging friends lol), hence the blurry. It looks really small next to the anchor piece, but it’s not that small at all, definitely bigger than the trays they use now. The tray was $2 at GW.
Sharing at these parties:
This looks fab, Mel!! The natural wood really pops and picks up the other wood tone of the antler piece. The whole wall just works well together. You've got the knack for it!
ReplyDeleteyeah, what she said :) plus bringing in the wood really warms it up.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing tray. I love the peacock. Where did you get that stencil? I love peacocks.
