I’ve been looking for a nice serving tray, so I decided to dedicate my weekend to a little project. Summer is almost here and I absolutely love the beach. That’s where my color inspiration for this project came from. This DIY Serving Tray With Glidden® paint would look perfect in a beach house!

I like projects like this because I can make it exactly the way I want! This DIY was super easy, affordable and quick! The serving tray was plain wood, so I decided it would be a lot easier to use Glidden paint because they have their DUO Paint +Primer collection.

To do this project you’ll need:

First, you will put a coat of paint on the wood serving tray. Since you are using DUO paint + primer, you will only need 1-2 coats of paint. I used 2 coats.

Now, you have a gorgeous personalized serving tray for your home or any occasion! Personally, I think this is the perfect decor for an ottoman in the living room!
