How to Make a Red Pallet Christmas Tray

I'm having so much fun making rustic Christmas trays!

I made a white Christmas tray using Old Sign Stencils by Funky Junk Interiors. 

I loved it so much I'm keeping it but that didn't stop me from making a few more. 

An Instagram friend requested a red tray so here it is.

I used red chalky paint for the tray and green for the trees with gold stars. 

When the paint dried I used an electric sander to distress the edges then dark wax over clear wax over the top.

The handles I used for this tray can be purchased below from my affiliate link.
