A tray brings favorite pieces together and creates a calmer look on a coffee table, console or kitchen counter.
Define a small area
A tray gives loose objects a shared frame. Choose a size that leaves clear space around it on the table or console.
Combine useful and decorative pieces
Start with something you use daily, then add one or two decorative objects. A small bowl catches loose items. Check the material and care instructions for your intended use, and rearrange the tray whenever you need a change.
