So what do we need to make a Lazy Susan?
Non-toxic clear spray shellac — To serve as a food-safe sealant for the finished board.
This step is optional — Knob of your choice.
1) If you’re opting for a knob, mark and drill a hole big enough for knob hardware. This way you will know where to paint your stripes.
2) Using the painter’s tape, make the 3-4 stripes at different widths across the wood round. Then, paint your first few stripes and let them dry completely.
3) Remove the painter’s tape and place the new tape on the edges of what you’ve already painted to create clean lines for the remaining colorful stripes. Let the last of the paint colors dry completely before moving forward.
4) Give the entire surface a generous coat of the non-toxic shellac spray sealant to create a food-safe surface that’s easy to wipe down when it’s time to clean up. Before moving on to installing the lazy Susan hardware, let the sealant cure for 24 hours.
5) After your sealant has dried completely, turn the painted wood round over and place the lazy Susan directly in the middle. Using a drill and the small wood screws, screw down the swivel plate with four wood screws. Make sure to not drill in too far to where the screws will poke through the other side!
6) Insert your knob hardware for a completed look.
