on the bottom of the tray.

Drill Holes for Handles
5 Measure your handles to see how far apart the holes need to be. I recommend using a piece of painter's tape as a template
and marking where the holes should go, then placing that on the sides of the tray and drilling through it.

Paint or Stain
6 Paint or stain your tray according to your preference. I used a special walnut stain for this one.
