Repurposed Chrome Shelf Supports - Into Trays!

A couple of my good friends had an accident while moving a glass and chrome shelf unit and things went to pieces. They showed me the chrome square support rings and I grabbed them thinking they might work out one day. While looking around in the garage, it finally hit me. Turn them into breakfast trays!
Each piece starts with custom cut wood to serve as the base for the trays. The artwork was either decoupaged or nailed to the wood and then I used different pieces for the feet of each tray. for feet, some trays have short hairpin legs. One has brass handles and the last has vintage metal roller skate wheels.

Jody Benge on Feb 23, 2014This is really a cute idea, and so simple. There seems to be a use for just about anything that we come across.As I have a passion for collectibles and antiques, the marriage of the chrome with the vintage book pages is great. However, what is nice is that you can actually customize these for men, children, etc. I also see these being used for children to eat off of, when sitting on the floor.
