DIY: Birdie Serving Tray
If you like the birdie serving tray in the picture then you are in luck as it can be made at home too. Just follow these instructions:
Here’s what you’ll need:
-Hot Iron Transfers (we used Aunt Martha’s “Birds for Varied Uses” but we also love all the iron on transfers available at Sublime Stitching:
-Iron Wooden Tray (we used the “Skala” tray from Ikea, $12.99)
-Woodburning Tool ($13)
-Damp rag
1. Carefully cut out the pattern you want to transfer and place it on your tray in the desired position.
2. Using a hot, dry iron, transfer the pattern onto the tray (this should only take a few seconds) making sure not to move the pattern paper as you iron over it.
3. If your woodburning tool has interchangeable tips, switch to the thinnest point for more detail.
4. Plug in your woodburning tool and while it’s warming up, prepare a damp cloth to wipe off the tip while you’re burning in your design.
5. Remove the pattern paper and trace the design with the tool just like you would with a pen or pencil. And please be careful. That thing gets hot!!
