Thrift Store Round Tray Makeover

Sharing is caring!

I want to share with you this thrift store round tray makeover I just finished for less than $10.00.

Trays are one of my favorite pieces of home decor. You can put them almost anywhere, and they elevate the home decor items you group together in them.

I had my eye on a white round tray I found online, but it was $128.00! No matter how cute it is, I would never spend that much on a simple tray.

However, I was at the thrift store the other day and I found a similar one in shape and size so I set out to DIY it into the white tray I’d had my eye on!

Here I will show you how I completed this farmhouse thrift store round tray makeover using only a few supplies and spending less than $10.00! That’s right; a designer tray knock-off for only $10!

Inspiration

Here was the tray I found online for $128 that I wanted to recreate. I just love how simple and pretty it is.

Before

Here is the tray I found from Goodwill. It was only $1.99! It was in decent shape but needed a little cleaning and a fresh coat of paint.

Gather Supplies

In order to complete this thrift store round tray makeover, I only used a few supplies.

Spray Paint Round Tray

After I gave the tray a good cleaning, it was time to spray paint it.

I used this chalky white spray paint, and gave it two coats. One tip I will give is to make sure to follow the dry times between coats for best results.

Wrap Handles

I found this really cool natural hemp cord to use. I like it better than jute twine for this project because it was stiffer, and it doesn’t fray as easily.

Hemp cord To wrap around handles of tray

The first thing I did was tape a piece off to the side so that I could wrap it tightly before gluing it down.

Wrapping the handles of the tray was pretty easy, just had to make sure I had it nice and tight! I made the job harder on myself but cutting a piece that was too big! Oh well, better than too short I guess.

Once it was all wrapped, I simply used the hot glue to secure it in place.

And that was it! This was an extremely simple DIY project.

I’m all about decorating on a budget, so I was excited to find this tray for so cheap. It looks very similar to the designer version for a fraction of the cost.
