what is on your tray?

I like the functions and the beauty of trays in a decor. In my home, trays keep my small collections together and defines them. What is on your tray?









Sometimes the same tray serves different collections. Here I used an antiqued framed mirror from Home Goods to serve as a tray.

Here are some inspirational pictures from other sources;

You cannot think trays without Hermes. I never thought I liked an orange tray. Here I am, having a Hermes tray crush... :)
