Lots of uses for the glass trays, but my favorites are party platters and discreet drip trays for large indoor planters. They are nice and heavy and have little nub feet. Nothing else needs to be done (unless you want to paint or decoupage the underside of the glass, of course)
No old microwave? Look for the trays at garage sales or Good Will.
i have used the trays for the flowers pots. I also have used it in my cabinets. the trivet that went under the glass makes into a nice lazy Susan. I put things like honey jars , jams, jars with oils, things that might make sticky rings.
I also make kombucha and I put the second ferment jars on the glass to protect my counter.
Great idea.
Brilliant! Thanks for the idea!!
I save them to use when i accidentally break the one in my oven. They don't always fit but I have several and among them , I usually find one for my purpose.
If you are an artist use them as a pallet. It works great. When you are thru painting just clean it with appropriate liquid, IE: water for watercolor or acrylic, turp for oils. If using oil paint and have a lot of paint left cover it with plastic wrap for use next day or if it will be a few days before you need it again, cover tightly and place in freezer.
I use them for cake plates. Also great if taking to a party, if it gets broken, no big deal, or if it gets sent home to the wrong house, no big deal eighter.
Also good under large plants are those ( ugly) older usually bronze or copper colored round wall plaques depicting old English scenes . The pressed out designs hold some water !
I used 1 as a shelf for spices and oils beside my range. Used a decorative metal stand that the bowl had broken. Microwave plate sits perfectly centered with about a inch of overhang. Space underneath for ashtray for smokers. That way they know where it is kept.
