Rustic Serving Tray

I made a new serving tray for my family. I am proud to say that I cut down the tree, milled the wood, used the planer to level out the wood, and chiseled out the remainder wood, to make this serving tray. 

It was my first attempt and I am quite pleased.  We served a chip/dip combo on it for Mother's Day and it was quite the hit of the party. I just love having made handmade items that my family can use. 

It is amazing that it started as a tree on our property, and it is a kitchen item that will continue to bring us joy. I wish the photos were better, but you can get the general idea.
