It’s a wet and drizzly day and I am warm and toasty with the little fire crackling, my electric blanket turned to full on the vintage bed (our little secret, best not share with Mr M) and not at all discouraged that springtime appears to be off the agenda for now. This week I have a quick and pretty up-cycled tray to share with you. There are endless possibilities for it’s use, not just the obvious and for a mere \u00a32 it was yet another lucky find. Before we take a look at the tray though, I have some other news to share with you…<\/p>\n<p><!--more continue reading--><\/p>\n<p>As many of you know if you’ve read <a href=\"http:\/\/www.whitewoodandlinen.com\/about\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a> before, my little blog was initially set up to record the renovation and build of our bungalow in the countryside. A sort of on-line scrap book of the process, warts and all. It was not long ago our planning permission was approved and we excitedly began thinking and organising for the build. Then in a total change of direction, a wonderful business opportunity presented itself to our daughter, who you have all come to know as Little Miss. As with any new business, there is much to do and for now, Little Miss needs our support and we want to give her just that. So Mr M and I have decided to\u00a0take a step back from our building plans for a short while to fully focus our efforts where they are needed most. And why am I telling you all this? I absolutely love writing my blog and sharing my stories with you. And judging from the wonderful feedback I get, you seem to quite like it too. For now though, I felt it only fair to let you know, my stories will be minus any building work and heavy on craft and painting, home styling and up-cycling. No different really than what you currently get, maybe not though, what you signed up for initially. In the coming months the stories will also feature the many wonderful garden projects we will be undertaking including a small fruit and vegetable patch. And of course beautiful <a href=\"http:\/\/www.whitewoodandlinen.com\/a-very-special-christmas-present\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Belle<\/a> and my adventures with The Spotty One will never be far away. I hope you will stay around and enjoy our new direction and when we do build, I hope you will join in with that too.<\/p>\n<p>And so onto this weeks up-cycled tray, which looked a little sorry for itself when I found it at the back of a shelf in a recent charity shop trip…<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1689\" title=\"old wooden tray from charity shop\" src=\"http:\/\/www.whitewoodandlinen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/wooden-tray-unpainted-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"old wooden tray from charity shop\" width=\"350\" height=\"467\" srcset=\"https:\/\/whitewoodandlinen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/wooden-tray-unpainted-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/whitewoodandlinen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/wooden-tray-unpainted-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I painted it as I did <a href=\"http:\/\/www.whitewoodandlinen.com\/lazy-susan-storage-in-the-craft-studio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a> with the Crafty Susan, minus the chalk paint…<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1690\" title=\"old wooden tray painted in Farrow and Ball's Hardwick White\" src=\"http:\/\/www.whitewoodandlinen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Wooden-tray-painted-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"old wooden tray painted in Farrow and Ball's Hardwick White\" width=\"350\" height=\"467\" srcset=\"https:\/\/whitewoodandlinen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Wooden-tray-painted-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/whitewoodandlinen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Wooden-tray-painted-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Then I stenciled a rose motif into the centre of the tray applying chalk paint with a cotton pad.
