The dollar section in Target is always fun to look at and they always have fun serving trays. I found a raw wood serving tray and I was so excited to upcycle it for my home!
Make sure to check out your Target Dollar Spot for seasonal deals and decor. I definitely try to hit up this section every season. You can check out my YouTube channel for other Target tips and tricks as well.
This is the raw wood serving tray and it has a mirror in the center which I was super excited about!

I painted on Folk Art Home Decor Wood Tint in the color Walnut with my Plaid paint brush.
After painting each section until it was fully covered, I let it sit for 30 seconds or more, and I wiped excess off with a old rag cloth.
I let it dry completely and I love how it brought out the texture of in the wood. I am so in love with this stain and the best part is that it’s water based!
I left it as is, and you could put a top coat on if you like to protect it.

Fantastic Target score! I would have grabbed the tray too, so much you can do with them. Stain, paint mod podge . . . Like having these for just as you have styled, snacks and reading material. Also like when doing projects, keeps items together and easy to move if not finished. Makes a wonderful gift idea too, maybe with a stencil or phrase on it. So many possibilities!
I agree Naomie so much fun and so many possibilities. Thanks for sharing how you use your trays and love the gift idea – ooh how much fun would that be to create and personalize.
That came out adorable!
Thank you so much Tamar 🙂

Thank you so much Jodie, I was thrilled too.
Chas, looks beautiful – and doable! I could use a handy-sized little tray or two like that. #SeniSal
Thank you so much Jean, they are quite handy, I think that’s why I have a varied collection of them in my house.
I love that little section of Target! Okay, full disclosure I love all of Target but that section is just so fun 😉

Thank you for sharing Marty and I totally agree. There is always something new in that area that seems to catch my eye and attention. Thanks for stopping by.
I am pinning this one. I want one of these trays I would use it all year!
Happy crafting,
Kippi
Thanks Kippi for the Pin and you’re so right, they’re great all year around. I kind of am a tray junky as I have quite a few of them around the house because they’re so handy.

Turned out great and Target saw me coming when they created that section. I cannot walk by it without looking ( and usually buying)! Featuring when my party opens tonight. Hope you’re continuing to do well 🙂
Thank you so much Carol for the feature. I honestly believe we must be related as we think a lot alike and like the same things 🙂 Thanks for the well wishes – I’m doing doing good thank you. Slow and steady recovery.
