Horseshoe Handled Tray
Most people just use typical handles for trays such as ones that you find at a hardware store. Instead, this tray uses horseshoes as handles. I have seen some different things done with horseshoes such as feet for candle stands or other types of trays, but I used those ideas and came up with my own design for this tray. This is how I created it.
Supplies
This project only uses a handful of tools and materials. Here is what I used to create this:
Tools:
Drill
Mouse Sander
Sandpaper (high and low grits)
Paintbrush
Level
Materials:
Horseshoes
Screws
Polycrylic finish
Wood (I used a soft wood)
Step 1:
Sand down wood with rough grit until smooth enough and sand corners making them curved.
Step 2:
Sand down wood with smooth sandpaper.
Step 3:
Apply polycrylic, 2 coats on bottom, about 4 coats on top.
Step 4:
Attach horseshoes and make sure its level. (I bought my horseshoes off Amazon)
After this, this simple project is fully complete!
