DIY Gold & White Polkadot Tray

By Vixenmade @vixenMade
I've always loved a spray painting DIY.  I also really love gold and white.
So here's a fun DIY project that includes both.. Yay!
I created this pretty new tray for my living space for $1!

Since I already had some gold spray paint from past projects, and I also had some wide painters tape and a circle paper punch, all this took was a $1 dollar plastic tray from the local dollar store.

To get my circle stickers, I ran the tape along some paper (cardstock works good, too).

Then punched out my circles with my paper punch.

And since I don't have fingernails... I used a dab of water to peel off the paper from the tape.  The little bit of water I used doesn't alter the effectiveness of painters tape.  Yay again!  But if you can peel them suckers off without water.. all the better.  Just be sure to peel carefully.  No need to rush these things.

An alternative I've seen people do is sticking your tape to wax paper, then punching.  But the wax paper wouldn't peel off of the tape for me.

Once you've placed your circles where you want them, you can get ready for paint.

I used this brand of paint.  And it used about 2 good coats.
