Decorative Christmas Trays

Thought I would pass on to you something that I have been doing this year for some friends. Frosty and I had gone into Z Gallery and found these beautiful trays which were embellished with rhinestones around the edges. They sold for almost $40.00. I told him, “hum, we could make those and certainly a lot cheaper than that. ” So that is exactly what we did. We went to Hobby Lobby where they have beautiful red, silver, gold trays and black, red, gold and silver chargers which you can use for cake plates. Then I bought some rhinestones there in the craft department and came home and put different disigns around the edges. They are just beautiful and we have made about 20 of them for gifts. Everytime we give them, the recipients are just so excited. They make a beautiful tray for candles, cookies, cupcakes, etc. Thought you might want to try your hand at this. A very inexpensive gift to make, but look so expensive. Only 2 more days to our day we celebrate the Savior coming to live among us. Merry Christmas.
