Be-Trayed

 Ugly tray, right?

Right.. on the back there's even a note to some unfortunate daughter-in-law from her new in-laws, welcoming her into the family.. Apparently this tray did not hold a place in her heart like it does mine, and she Be-trayed this lovely piece of artwork and her new family.

I knew that we could make this into something much more appealing. So I spray painted it gold, then hot-glued this modern thick black and white striped fabric. I love the way it turned out, and it is the perfect place to hold my new adorable owls!
