DIY: Gold & Silver Trays

I saw this idea on the GlitterGuide a few months back, and I am just now getting around to doing it!  I needed to add something special to these plain white trays, so adding some gold and silver to match the color scheme in my apartment was the perfect idea.  Also, I was a little bored Saturday. ;-)
Supplies:
Gold spray paint
Silver spray paint
Masking tape
Trays

Create design on the tray with the masking tape

Spray tray and let dry completely

Repeat for 2nd tray...
I went over the trays with a second coat to ensure the color was even
After a few hours, carefully remove the tape to reveal the design!

Ta-da! Boring to glam in just a few steps!
