Kitchen Chic Tray Decorating
Keep things in order with a stylish one on the counter for a designated spot for your staples.
1.
Define Areas
Trays act as stylish borders, creating a defined space within a larger surface. For the coffee table, ottoman, or dresser, use a tray to establish zones for candles, books, or decorative items. This not only brings order but also adds intentional styling to your decor.
2.
Layer
Don't just place items on the tray; layer them for added visual interest. Experiment with stacking books, a small vase with decorative objects, and perhaps a scented candle. Layering adds dimension, turning your tray into a mini illustration that captures attention and sparks intrigue.
3.
Bring Texture
Introduce texture to your tray ensemble. Consider a woven or mirrored tray to add visual interest. Mix materials like wood, glass, or metal for a tactile feast that elevates the overall aesthetic. The contrast in textures creates a harmonious balance pleasing to the eye and touch.
4.
Seasonal Switch-Ups
Trays are a fantastic canvas for seasonal decor transformations. Fill them with fresh flowers, vibrant fruits, or beach-themed treasures during the warmer months. As autumn approaches, swap these out for rustic elements like wood candle holders and warm-toned accessories. This simple switch keeps your space dynamic and in sync with the changing seasons.
5.
The Power of Repetition
Create a sense of cohesion by repeating elements within your tray. This could be a color scheme, a specific material, or a style choice. Repetition ties together seemingly various items, turning them into a curated collection.
6.
The Green Touch
A small potted plant or a vase of fresh flowers can breathe life into your tray styling. Not only does it add a natural element, but it also infuses your space with a sense of vitality and freshness.
7.
Personal Treasures
Use trays to showcase your treasures— mementos, travel souvenirs, or vintage finds. Arrange them thoughtfully within the tray, creating a display that tells a story and reflects your interests. Trays become more than organizers; they become vessels of memories.
Remember to mix and match different textures and heights, get creative, and use trays indoors or on the outdoor patio with fun objects that tell a story. This way, your personality shines through your curated display. Shop Our Woodka Interiors Trays Here
