Creating a DIY tiled drink tray is not only a practical project but also an opportunity to add a touch of personal style to both your indoor and outdoor spaces. First, gather your materials: a wooden tray, tiles of your choice (think vibrant ceramics or classic mosaics), tile adhesive, grout, and a sealant. Begin by cleaning your tray thoroughly and ensuring it’s dry.

Next, arrange your tiles in a pleasing pattern, leaving small gaps between them for the grout. Once satisfied with your design, apply the tile adhesive to the tray and press the tiles into place, allowing them to set as per the manufacturer’s instructions. After the adhesive has dried, fill the gaps with grout, smoothing it down for a polished look. Wipe away any excess with a damp cloth before it sets.

Finally, seal the tray to protect it from moisture and enhance its longevity, making it suitable for serving drinks during sunny garden parties or cosy evenings indoors. This simple yet stylish project not only elevates your entertaining game but also adds a unique handmade touch to your home.
