I love being able to bring happy color to my office space in simple and easy ways. Pair happy colors with polka dots and it becomes like a match made in cheerful office heaven! See how I was able to take natural wood trays and transform them into the perfect addition to your work space. Did I mention, these are a great gift idea!
The first step for this project is cutting out your scrapbook paper to fit the size of your wooden tray. Next, add some fun color coordinating polka dots. I used a cotton swab to get that perfect little dot!
While your scrapbook paper is drying, you can start painting the outside edges of the wooden tray. I selected acrylic paint colors that coordinated with the scrapbook paper.
After both the wooden tray and paper are dry, it’s time to adhere the paper inside the tray. I brushed on simple glue to secure it.
Lastly, I wanted to have my notebooks match my wooden trays since I plan to use them in my office. So, using the cotton swab again, I added playful polka dots of paint.
I just love the simple design of these office trays and the cheerful color they bring to my space. I paired my wooden trays with polka dot notebooks and equally colorful star pens!
