For some reason the Salvation Army store in my town always has a huge pile of silver platters that no-ones seems to want. I see these platters, stacked up in a pile, tarnished and un-loved and feel sad, since they were obviously purchased for some special occasion or holiday, or given as a beautiful and thoughtful gift. I have never bought any in the past because, hey..who really using things like that?! In my house the platters come out maybe a couple times a year and I have no use for extras (except for the round ones that I use as lids to make crock stacks, but that is another post) That was until.......
Ta daa...... grab a couple of those lonely tarnished platters, paint the inside of the tray with our perpetual favorite: chalkboard paint, and you have an awesome addition to your wall, your kitchen or for your craft show booth, because when you combine pretty with useful and add a little patina, great things happen!
