Serving breakfast in bed, having a quiet nosh in front of the telly, or setting up a candlelight dinner for two? Decorative trays make it easy to create a place setting and bring it to the intended person. Even if you are just planning an evening in for yourself, a pretty tray creates a mood of elegance and charm for your personal enjoyment. You don’t have to wait for guests to bring out that special set of china. You deserve the opportunity to enjoy your pretty things without the work of entertainment, as well as the fun of sharing them with others.
Leaf Shaped Decorative Tray
What we like: Detail makes it look expensive
What we don’t like: Metal will rust over time
Not so great for: Nibbles or other food items
Perfect for: A botanical themed room
Crafted from iron for long-lasting durability, this unique tray is in the shape of a leaf. Featuring intricate stem detail and other realistic accents, we think it would be an amazing addition to a botanical themed room. Leaf prints and other botanic themes are huge at the moment, and this tray is a subtle way to hop on the trend without having to change much.
Plus, the antique bronze finish gives it stunning vintage appeal. Although you can use this tray to hold wine glasses during a party, it would also look great in your bedroom. Utilize its width to store necklaces or other jewelry and prevent any tangling.
Rustic Decorative Tray
What we like: Handy two-tier design
What we don’t like: Not food safe
Not so great for: Using as a fruit bowl
Perfect for: To use as an entertaining tray
This decorative tray would be an ideal addition to any farmhouse-style home. Made completely from solid wood, the weather-worn finish gives it heaps of rustic charm. It would be an excellent option to use as a nibbles tray when entertaining due to its two-tier design - just make sure to place your nibbles in bowls first, as it is not food safe.
Available in three color choices of brown, black, or white, we love the versatility of this tray. Its distressed finish will blend in with most existing décor schemes. Easy to transport from room to room due to the turning handle, the dainty feet will prevent any surface scratching.
Hexagonal Decorative Trays
What we like: Two trays included
What we don’t like: Mirrored surface will get dirty more quickly
Not so great for: If you don’t like high-maintenance items
Perfect for: A bedroom or bathroom
If you have a vanity that doesn’t seem to stay organized, this set of two decorative trays is the perfect solution for you. Both featuring a hexagonal design, one large and one small, these trays have a gleaming metal outline and a mirrored glass surface. However, the mirrored surface will get dirty easily, meaning we don’t recommend them if you hate high-maintenance items.
We think they would be a great option for storing your perfume bottles. Alternatively, add some understated luxury to your guest bathroom by placing hand soaps or towels on your trays. You can choose from four color options of silver, black, gold, or gold/black.
Glam Decorative Tray
Willa Arlo™ Interiors
What we like: Metal handles add a glam finish
What we don’t like: Manufactured wood finish may chip over time
Not so great for: Larger or wider items
Perfect for: An entryway key tray
Combining old-school glamour with contemporary glitz, this tray has ten color options to choose from. Plus, you can pick from a gold or silver finish. The high gloss finish will gleam in both natural and manufactured light. Additionally, the classic rectangular shape is a mixture of style and functionality.
We recommend placing it in your entryway – you can keep your keys there ready to go and create a modern luxe vibe. Sturdy enough to support glasses, you can also use it as a cocktail tray. The useful pads on the bottom will protect your furniture surfaces, whether that’s an upholstered ottoman or a wooden console table.
Retro Decorative Tray
House of Hampton®
What we like: Vintage-inspired design
What we don’t like: Pricey for a decorative tray
Not so great for: Ultra-modern or contemporary spaces
Perfect for: A retro-style bedroom
The unique design of this tray has more than a little retro appeal. The standout geometric pattern and gold-rimmed handles have a timeless glamour to them, whereas the bow detail adds a charming accent touch. As this tray has a round shape, we think it would be the ideal finishing touch to a retro-style bedroom.
You can display trinkets or lipsticks on its glossy surface. Or, throw it back to the 1920s and embrace your inner Gatsby by using it to serve drinks. Measuring eighteen inches all the way around, it will hold a good amount. However, as this tray is crafted from glass and metal, it will rust over time.
