I have been on the hunt for a tray to set on the coffee table. It was always a challenge since the table is oval and not what you'd call oversized.
I like how things seem more interesting collected together on a tray.
When I found it - it was loaded with a bunch of stuff, had a few tiny scratches on it but I
knew it was what I wanted. They gave us a discount on it because of the
little scratches.
Once it was home we used a little kit we have for furniture repair and
you'd never know there had been anything there.
I liked the little edge design it had on it.
I used pieces that I had around the room already and it was as though they'd been waiting to be put there.
The lidded marble jar has been up on the mantel for a while and I really never imagined it working on the table but I like it because it offers a different texture to the setting.
The candle holder is a favorite of mine because that gold interior makes it look like a glowing fire.
The glass cylinder bowl was on my chest that's behind the sofa and had this pot-pourri mix in it that has all the colors of my room.
The magnifying glass was looking for a home since it had been displaced a while back.
I moved my candle bowl arrangement to the chest up behind the sofa. It used to be on the coffee table.
I'm happy....I finally found my tray!
