Step 1: Plug in your glue gun and arrange the three wooden trays side by side so they are adjoined long ways. Glue the trays together so you have three consecutive trays side by side creating a long tray with three sections. Clamp the trays together and let dry for five minutes.
Step 2: After the glue has hardened, remove the clamps and spray paint the top and the bottom of the long tray with spray paint. I used Rustoleum Canyon Black in Satin for a low sheen. Let dry.
Step 3: Cut four 4″ strips of the Dollar Tree Chopping Mat (long side totaling to about 20.25″ long and 4″ deep and shorter side of tray 4.75″ long and 4″ deep). Now you will need to line up the long strip with the long side of the tray and cut slits where the trays meet so to create a flap to cut off, and cut off any excess length so that the wall of the tray is snug. The short side will just need to be cut 4.75″ long and 4″ tall. Glue the long side of the chopping mats to the tray and repeat with the shorter, each going 2″ deep and having a 2″ perimeter serving as the wall. Glue the corners together as well.
Step 4: Place one Dollar Tree Handi Heat in each section of the tray. Cover Handi Heats with the four Dollar Tree White Marble Rocks.
Step 5: Unscrew the tops of the Handi Heats and place in a memorable place and enjoy!
Each Dollar Tree Handi Heat has a 2.5 hour burn time. Do not let the Handi Heat burn unsupervised.
