Using Trays To Organise and Decorate

 There is a little area of our home that needs some love.  It is a low buffet unit in our living room and I just can’t figure out how to decorate it.  Last week at West Elm I spied some gorgeous trays.  I love the way using a tray can group random items together to make it look like a gorgeous vignette! Trays are also a great way to keep items organised! Using a tray helps control the clutter as it provides a confined space for it to live. 

Now for the ‘pin’spiration…….


 

 

Think outside the tray. These are test tubes! This looks like an amazing thrift store find, decorated with a simple, single bloom each!

 
A vintage tray, filled with glasses of assorted shapes but similar size, topped with such amazing flowers.  What a gorgeous centrepiece this would make to any able setting.

That blue lattice urn is just striking! This little vignette would be great in a bathroom or guest room.

 

 

This is a great example of how varying vases are all “brought together” by using a tray, plate, frame.

 

My favourite colour! Such a random scatter of tiny jars but it looks perfect!

 LOVE LOVE LOVE!

I saw a display similar to this at pottery barn and it would be perfect for my wooden buffet.

Tidy up any space and keep it organised with a tray to confine the clutter! 

Now I think a trip to a few thrift stores must be planned for later this week to find a tray and some cute recycled glass vases! Anyone else got a tray display they can show me? Which one is your favourite?
