I love dressing up my decorative trays. I have a handful of different sorts around the house. My husband would call these unnecessary cluttering objects but I beg to differ. In fact, they keep things sooo organized and pretty. My faves right now are the acrylic trays which I find here and there at stores such as HomeGoods. I love digging for gems. And for good deals. I call this respecting your money.
As of late, I’m mildly obsessed with all things pink, blush, and such. Can you think of more feminine and soft hues? Here are the little things on my acrylic tray that’s making me oh so happy!
Organizing your tray around a theme will make everything more cohesive. Your theme can be jewels, makeup, office supplies, or based on a color scheme which is what mine is right now.
I bought this book solely for the gorgeous illustrations. Again, the hubs would categorize this as clutter. Again, I beg to differ. Packaging is everything. It makes or breaks a brand. The cover of a book is the same. Using books as home decorative objects is a must. He’s a smart man but I think I’m definitely right on this one.
Go and organize your favorite items on a decorative tray. It’ll make you smile.
Happy Thursday!
Your photography ❤

Such pretty colours. I too am a sucker for blush colours! Also, love the book – not only is it decorative, it has 200 cocktail recipes in it. So double win really!

I wish I had a space for a decorative tray. I probably do have space, I just need to find it. So cute!

Definitely with you on using trays and books as decorative art! Great idea to keep everything cohesive though – mine always get a bit crazy with the crazy amount of jewelry and makeup products I leave out and about throughout the week, ha! That being said, “The Preppy Handbook” will always remain on display. Both because I love it’s tartan plaid cover, and because the book is an absolutely hilarious read!
