TIP: You could use an old belt if you have one you don't mind cutting up!

The holes should be about one-half inch away from the edges.

Step 5
Attach the leather handles by screwing small wood screws through the leather into the pilot holes you drilled previously.

Step 6
To make the "feet" for your tray, take a length of wooden dowel and mark four 2 inch long sections.

Step 7
Use a small handsaw or hacksaw to cut the dowel pieces. (You can use a mitre box to keep the blade straight while cutting.)
