This past weekend I set out to make a fun graphic element for my home. I have so many tea towels that I buy because I LOVE the pattern, but I don’t necessarily want to use them to wipe down pots and pans.
I got the idea to immortalize my favorite tea towels onto some plain wooden trays – resulting in a fun, graphic accessory for the home!

I love how the fabric grain is still visible, lending a slight amount of texture to the surface! If you saw my post last week regarding 5 ways to use trays, you probably have already caught on, that I LOVE trays.
I love them! They are the perfect for so many things! (as shown above).
I promised myself early on in my blogging that I everything I created, I would make double. So, true to my promise, I am placing the duplicate versions of these beautiful trays on ETSY! Fun for everyone!
Have a BOLD and FUN Wednesday!












I need a tutorial on this! Great idea Erin
I don’t get it. How did you do that!?! They are so cool!
I second the vote on a tutorial. I definitely need to add this project to my crafting arsenal.
Can you share how you did it?
I would love to- I’ll work on it and let you know as soon as the tutorial is live!
Just came across your blog through YHL. These are great trays! Well done
I just came across your blog via Chatelaine magazine. I know Muji from Japan. Where did you shop? Is Muji in North America now? I must look online. I outfitted my apartment and wardrobe when I was in Japan from Muji. I finally just had to let one of my all time favourite cardigans from there go to the recycle fabric bin…
Hi laura! I travel to southeast Asia a lot for work and always get my muji fix in Hong Kong! There are a few stores sprinkled around
The US, and an e-commerce portal, but they only offer a portion of the goods!
