ONE DOLLAR GOODWILL FIND UPCYCLED


I found this ceramic trivet for $1.00 at Goodwill.  I really didn't like the mustard color, so a quick project began.


The underside picture shows that this medallion could also be hung as wall décor.




A quick coat of grey spray primer preps the surface.


















A coat of grey chalk paint covers the primer.




A quick, sloppy coat of dry brushing white chalk paint over the grey paint.
Distress it a bit with sandpaper.  Seal with spray matte spray.


A bit of the mustard glaze shows through but it is ok on this piece.


Besides using as a trivet, this piece could be used as wall décor or after purchasing a piece of glass to cover it would be an interesting staging prop for a vase of flowers.
