Horseshoe Handled Tray

Most people just use typical handles for trays such as ones that you find at a hardware store. Instead, this tray uses horseshoes as handles. I have seen some different things done with horseshoes such as feet for candle stands or other types of trays, but I used those ideas and came up with my own design for this tray. This is how I created it.
