Picnic Serving Tray Build

Overview
Build a beautiful reclaimed-wood picnic serving tray — perfect for summer hosting, outdoor dining, or a thoughtful handmade gift.

What’s This All About:
This June, we’re creating something functional, stylish, and ready for summer: a reclaimed wood picnic serving tray complete with reclaimed handles for easy carrying. Whether you’re planning backyard dinners, park picnics, or patio brunches, this piece is designed to elevate how you gather and serve.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to measure, cut, and assemble your tray using salvaged wood, giving each piece its own unique character. With guidance from Beech Tree Studio’s expert instruction, you’ll transform reclaimed materials into a durable, one-of-a-kind serving tray that’s as practical as it is beautiful.

Perfect for beginners and seasoned DIYers alike, this class is all about slowing down, working with your hands, and creating something you’ll actually use all summer long. Come solo, bring a friend, or make it a fun shared experience — and leave with a finished piece ready for your next gathering.

What You’ll Learn:

• Basic woodworking and upcycling techniques
• Safe use of shared tools and materials
• How to plan, measure, cut, and assemble your serving tray
