Silverware tray--anyone seen one like this?

This is my old tray, about 20 years old, plastic, no sharp edges--see how there are 7 slots of varying sizes? I want that again, but I can't manage to find it, anyone have a clue? Can't believe I'm having problems finding something I probably picked up at Home Depot 20 years ago... Thanks!

Comments (2)hi there! I've been out of the loop for the most part, but I do come back and try to post now and then :D Mostly I craft in my bedroom and make a lot of things,but I haven't been photographing them all, or getting the "how-to" photos like I should. I LOVE the pen made from the hollow silver handle, and this is how I do mine....you can search for more detailed and better how-to's,lol! I have a small pair of bolt cutters, and I recommend these for all of ya'll...you'd be amazed how often you'll use them! About $5 at Harbor Freight. Cut the knife handle off with the bolt cutters, being careful with the design in the handle, keeping the pretty design on the part you use. You might hit the stainless steel part of the knife blade, if you do, use pliers to pull them out, then you can re-cut the handle with the bolt cutters if you need to, to neaten them up. ( in fact, check first to see if the blade will come out with the pliers before you cut) After I cut them, I used my pliers closed, to slip inside the handle and round it out, keep checking here, to make sure you don't make it too big. I use Bic Stik type disposable ink pens....they're round. I use a coarse emery board to file the edges smooth, you don't want any bits of metal to snag and cut your hand! Polish it if you like...and you're done! When making a small flower vase....I drill a hole near the top on one side, and slip it on a clear suction cup to hang in a window or on a mirror, or glue on a pin for wearing a fresh flower on your lapel! Hope that was info you're looking for! :D kudzu/cherry Here is a link that might be useful: Kudzu's blog...See MoreGlass hutch cab drawer--silverware storage?
Comments (19)Fivefoot--excellent point! Mine will be upper cab depth too, 12". My longest piece of silverware is the table knife at 8.5" long. I should really check with my cab maker to find out how much finished interior space I'll have. He better say at least 9"! BTW, my cab maker never heard of a drawer being wired with an outlet. He gave the most bewildered look when I mentioned it for my bathroom vanity....See MoreMeganmca
