When I spotted this $650.00 designer antler tray I knew it wasn't in my budget. I decided to create one myself
I found a wooden tray at my local Goodwill store for $1.75
re-used some deer antlers I already had (a deerhead was a curbside find
spray painted the tray Krylon glossywhite
covere in faux marble contact paper
Using a two hole pipe strap I attached the antlers to the tray
The finished look of the upscale tray. Created this tray for a total cost of $10.00
The finished look of the high end tray
Suggested materials:
  • Wood tray   (Goodwill)
  • Antlers   (curbside)
  • Spray paint   (Walmart)

    The question above is also my question, and does that one clamp on each side hold well enough to pick up the tray by the handles (antlers)???

    Hi did you split the wood when you put the screws in ? always pre drill this helps

    Being from central Texas (deer country for sure) I normally do not care for this look, especially at $650, but you did a great job. Very nice and like what you did with the animal prints which also not my thing but you have got some talent with decor. Good job.
