Create a super cute wood tray to store your magazines and other items. This is a great gift as well as decorating piece. It's a simple, inexpensive project… That's our favorite kind!
Make your cuts! For the 1x3 furring strip, you will have 5 pieces each cut at 18". For the 1x4 furring strip, you will have 2 pieces cut at 12.25" and 2 at 19.5". Run a line of glue down the bottom end of your 12.25" piece and attach it to your 18" pieces. We used our Airstrike Nailer with 1 1/4" nails to hold everything in place.
Now attach your 19.5" pieces on each side. Use a line of glue on each one, and attach them using the Airstrike Nailer.
Paint it! We painted ours with a cream color spray paint, and then used the Corner Cat to sand our edges down to give it a fun vintage look.
Add your hardware! Use your drill to attach metal corner pieces and handles and you are set!
We made this in no time, for very little money and it's super cute! Thanks so much for stopping by! For more how-to projects from Shanty2Chic, visit shanty-2-chic.com.
