If you read my recent post you know I parted with a bunch of stuff at two recent garage sales. I put this metal tray out for the sale but during pricing it was granted a reprieve. At that moment I had an idea for how I could use it, and it was tucked away...safe from eager buyers. I decided it would be great as a magnet board. I could display snapshots, or use it to hold tickets or invitations to upcoming events. I wanted to paint a border on the lip and that required some planning and measuring. I started to paint my first idea....didn't like how it looked....eliminated the idea of letting the white show....remeasured and marked off the new pattern.......and started painting again. This one I liked better so I completed the border in geranium and black The black I used is actually chalkboard paint. And that is what I used to paint the body of the tray as well. I had the little circular magnets and I found some silver buttons that did not have to be glued onto the mag
