I think it's safe to say that chevron pattern was the pattern of 2011. It's everywhere, home decor, clothes, phone covers, you name it, it comes in chevron. My little taste of chevron comes in the form of a tray that lives on my living room table. Maybe I saw this on pinterest, probably. However, it was super easy, so go do it and smile.
DIY Chevron Tray:
Wooden tray, purchased at Hobby Lobby
Frog Tape
3 paint colors: two for the chevron stripes and one for the outside of the tray
1. Paint outside of the tray desired color, let dry
2. Stencil chevron pattern onto bottom of tray, we printed off a chevron pattern we got online and just cut the stripe shape out and stenciled it that way.
3. Paint every other chevron shape one color, let dry
4. Paint the opposite chevron shapes another color, let dry
5. Use as many coats until you get the look you were going for
6. Coat the top with polyurethane to seal it in and make sure the paint doesn't chip
6. Enjoy your happy tray!
