converted silver tray

I was so inspired by this blog and loved how it looked and then I remembered... wait... I found a tray a couple years ago in a box that someone was giving away (junky books etc) Here is the tray as it looked.
and after being inspired to make it a magnetic board, this is how mine turned out!
I made some magnets using old magnets and double stick tape and some pretty papers I stamped awhile back as well as some tiny clothespins a friend gave me (hi friend! I miss you!)



I love how it turned out. I love that it was completely free for me as I had all the necessary materials. I love how it greets us as we come in and out of our home. Maybe you have an old metal plate or platter. This is such a rewarding project!
