INSTRUCTIONS
NOTES:
Read the instructions completely before beginning the project.
Let dry completely between painting steps.
- Sand the surface of the wooden round with fine grit sandpaper and wipe clean with a soft cloth.
- Use a 2" flat brush to paint the wooden round with Vintage. Let dry. When dry, sand lightly. (Helpful Hint: Always sand in the direction of the woodgrain.) Remove sanding dust.
- Position the Posh Pineapple stencil on the wooden round and secure with painter's tape.
- Use a stencil brush or cosmetic sponge to apply Everlasting over the stencil. Remove the stencil.
- Position, trace, and transfer the pattern. Use a round brush and Everlasting to paint the lettering. Let dry.
- When dry, drag sandpaper very lightly across the surface randomly and around the edges to give an aged appearance.
- Use a soft cloth to remove any dust.
- Use a 2" flat brush to apply Soft-Touch Varnish.
- Position and attach the handles with a screwdriver.
- Optional: Cut circles out of a sheet of self-adhesive felt. Position and apply the felt adhesive pads on the back side of the tray.
