Wooden Trays with Paper Napkins

Summer holiday started, I have a little more time to explore crafty ideas that I saw at Cultura (a craft shops in Paris).

What you'll need.

Steps: 

1. Sand the wooden tray with a sandpaper to smooth the rough surface & edges. I can't find my sandpaper, hence I did not manage to sand the rough edges & surfaces. 

2. Apply the acrylic paints of choice on the wooden  tray. At least 2 coats of paint is required. Ensure the paint is completely dry before you apply another coat of paint.

3. Cut out the required motif / shape from the paper napkin. Lay on the wooden tray while the paint is still wet. Use a brush to smooth it out. Needs some practice. I'm not quite there yet.. ;) 

4. Finally when the paint is completely dry. Apply a few layers of varnish. 

Voilà!
