Chic Party Tray and Ice Bucket

I am pretty excited with how this set turned out. It started with your typical plastic 'woodgrained' ice bucket from Goodwill or Savers. Add in a very dated tray, it was a not so cute 80's wood tray with a 'Welcome Guests' theme. Sorry, no picture on that one, but I'm sure you can imagine it. I took some damask tissue paper that I found at Wal-Mart and Mod Podged it right on the bucket. I painted the tray black and cut tissue paper to fit the center and Mod Podged it on to the tray. A couple of layers later and I had this great little chic party tray and matching ice bucket.
Wow, what an improvement on this tray!
I am ready for a party!
