DIY Summer Cloche Tray

In this post I will show you how to make your own DIY cloche tray from a pie plate!

I’ve had a glass cloche for years. I’ve never really used it because I couldn’t find a tray that fit the bottom.

It’s a tall, skinny cloche but the bottom flares out. I’ve tried putting it on a plate but it looked funny and planter trays were never the right size. Then I thought of a brilliant idea! I tried out a metal cake pan.

Perfect fit! But I didn’t want it to look like I stuck my cloche on a cake pan so I prettied it up!

I got a cake pan from the dollar store and spray painted it with a oil-rubbed bronze color {from Krylon}. I primed it then added two coats of the ORB. After that I hot-glued some rope around the outer edge to give it a nice nautical summer feel.

Voila! A simple tray for my neglected cloche.

Instagram post 2169929051393555426_277411407 I’m usually dying to set up my Christmas decor the day after Halloween and I did do it this weekend but this year I kinda wanted to wait a bit after to just ‘be’ 🎄 But being a blogger & influencer, I need to do things early so you’re inspired when the time is right for you. 🎄 I do love these printables I created, if I do say so myself 😂 I took photos from my last trip to Paris and made them ‘snowy’. I’ve created them in color and B&W. 🎄Perfect for the winter season ➡️ Check stories for the direct link.

Instagram post 2166956522345413863_277411407 Garages aren’t the prettiest to look at but they do so many jobs. #ad Especially when you take your one car garage and turn it into an epic storage/workshop/ studio space! 💪🏻💪🏻 Our house is small and we needed just a bit more square footage for our tools, paint, shoes, an area to do DIY projects (um..instead of the dining room) and a space to store my light boxes for videos and a place for shooting videos. Not asking for too much, are we 🤔🤣 I’m blown away that we actually achieved all those wants/needs PLUS having lots of room to spare!! 😮 You must check out this tour and how you can get everything you need for a garage makeover from @bedbathandbeyondca. And hey, @addquast we lived to tell about it?! Blowing insulation into each wall cavity almost did us in 😂😂😂➡️ Check stories for the direct link. Also in my bio and under the Garage Makeover highlight under my bio 🔨 .

Instagram post 2162794567678539066_277411407 I have been wanting to change up my dining room a bit( a new table perhaps and wall moulding) but I still get questions of where I purchased this set. I bought it locally but found similar on Wayfair. They seem identical online! My chairs have grey fabric and I now can’t find the exact fabric online but the same chair only different fabric. ➡️ Shop this post for the links. http://liketk.it/2Gd1d Download the LIKEtoKNOW.it shopping app to shop this pic via screenshot #liketkit @liketoknow.it @liketoknow.it.home #LTKhome
