Why This Ornament Tray Earns Its Place on the Table
The Ornament artwork frames a bauble hanging from a ribbon with a domed highlight, patterned across its surface and finished with a metallic cap, worked in rich red and gold with a deep green ground and white highlight. The overall character is festive and bold rather than theatrical. Single-ornament motifs suit people who want the season on the wall without a full scene. It suits a home where the counter objects have been chosen on purpose. Designed for Christmas trees and seasonal displays, it holds up as decor rather than as something you finish and put in a drawer. Reference CP10. Single-ornament motifs suit people who want the season on the wall without a full scene The domed highlight is worked in bright drills against the darker body, which is what makes the bauble look spherical rather than circular.
single-ornament motifs suit people who want the season on the wall without a full scene. Hung in Christmas trees and seasonal displays, it reads as part of the room rather than an addition to it.
Everything DOTZSO supplies here is aimed at a tray sturdy enough for regular service. What is in the box: the printed wooden tray, DOTZSO resin drills, a sorting tray, a comfort-grip applicator pen, a wax caddy and a pictorial instruction sheet.
A tray stays out on the counter if it can take a hot mug. That is what the sealed surface and solid body are for.
Coverage runs across the whole tray face, so nothing is left printed-only.

How to Make It
- Lay the printed tray face flat and let it settle before starting.
- Find the legend strip and match the first symbol to its drill colour.
- Press the pen tip into the wax caddy, then touch it to a drill – the drill lifts and stays on the tip.
- Set the drill onto the matching printed symbol and press lightly. Work one colour block at a time rather than across the whole tray.
- Continue until the face is covered, then press the finished surface flat with a book for an hour to seat every drill.
- Seal the surface fully before the tray goes into service, or the drills will lift under a plate.
Complete it over a few sessions, then let the tray settle into everyday use.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this wooden tray kit self-contained, or does it need extra supplies?
Yes. The Ornament wooden tray kit ships complete with the wooden tray and cut-in handles; you drill the printed face and then the tray goes into service, plus the DOTZSO resin drills, tray, applicator pen, wax caddy and pictorial instructions. Nothing else needs sourcing. Reference CP10.
Will the drills stay put on the Ornament design with daily handling?
Once the drills are seated and the surface is sealed, the Ornament design holds under normal use. The surface is sealed, so it handles mugs and plates in normal use. Very hot pans straight from the hob are another matter — use a trivet, and the sealing step is the single biggest factor in how long the finish lasts. Give the seal a full cure and the Ornament finish will hold.
How do I keep the Ornament wooden tray kit looking its best?
Wipe with a damp cloth and dry immediately. Do not submerge it or put it through a dishwasher — the adhesive layer under the drills is not built for a soak. For the Ornament palette, rich red and gold tones show dust less than pale grounds, so a light pass is usually enough. Dust with a dry cloth rather than a wet one where possible.
Is the entire Ornament surface drilled?
The face is drilled across the whole surface, so the finished tray has complete coverage without bare wood showing. The Ornament artwork is drawn so that a bauble hanging from a ribbon with a domed highlight reads clearly at any distance. The Ornament face has no deliberately exposed areas.
What is the estimated build time for the Ornament design?
Plan for a few sessions rather than one. Working a single colour block at a time is faster than moving across the tray at random. The Ornament design is festive and bold, which tends to make it easier to work in short sessions. The Ornament pattern is easy to work in short bursts.
Is the Ornament wooden tray kit available in a smaller format?
The range covers 7.8 × 11.8 in, 9.8 × 13.8 in and 12.2 × 16.1 in, so there is a format for a bedside table or a full dinner service. This listing is the 7.8×11.8 in format. Reference CP10.
