17 May Acrylic Tray with Chevron Fabric
The happy little zig-zag print known as Chevron has been popping up everywhere for awhile, and YES I am still not over it. Whether on a rug or a bikini top I can’t get enough…

What usually happens when I have a mini-obsession is that those in my gift-giving line of fire that month get to experience it, too. I thought a fun gift might be an Acrylic Tray with Chevron Fabric on the bottom. Since there was no way I could choose just one color from all the fun combos at Premier Prints, Inc I decided that each tray would arrive with fabric options to give them the chance to slip in the one they liked best (or swap out occasionally!)
It was really stumbling on these trays that got me thinking of this gift in general. They are nice and long and heavy. From Container Store in two sizes. I traced out with a pencil where to cut down the fabric and then gently used good pair of scissors as to not fray the edges.
And the finished product! Everything just looks cuter sitting inside of it. Even my bills would probably look sweet waiting in here….And, yes, I did make one for myself. For testing purposes of course. Enjoy!
