Upcycled chalkboard

I've been working on my craft show inventory - I do several large shows in South Florida and they're coming up quickly (like just a month away!).

I've been looking for something "new" to do - and I am hoping these will be a hit!  I'm using some of thrift store goodies, these are vintage silver trays (some of them may be silver plate, some are probably just silver colored).  I've added a chalkboard surface to the middle of the trays (some are round, some are oval, a few are rectangular) and then punched the ends for a hanging ribbon (I love my crop-o-dile!).
