Trays are not new or trending home elements. However, they are a perfect combination of style and practicality. Gone are the days when a large serving tray was only used for serving refreshments to the guests. Today you can use them to decorate and organise different corners of your home, especially if you love experimenting with ideas. Here are 5 ways you can use a large serving tray:
- Bedside tray: Do you always find your bedside table in a mess? A large tray can help you stay organised. You can keep some nighttime necessities on the tray, like hand lotions, a book, a bottle of water and medicines. However, be sure not to add too many items and cramp up the space. Depending on the bedroom's aesthetic, you can pick the tray's style, colour and design.
- Living room tray: Trays in the living room can be used to keep TV remotes, magazines, coasters, pens and notepads, jars of snacks and candies, scented candles, flower vases, and more on an ottoman or a coffee table. You can also use it as a display surface for showpieces.
- Bathroom tray: A tray in a bathroom? As weird as it may sound, it can help you organise the batch and beauty products. You can place your shower gel, body scrub, shampoo, conditioner, and other essential items on the tray. It helps you keep the countertop neat, dry and clutter-free. You can also lay out fresh towel rolls for your guests.
- Kitchen tray: A large serving tray in the kitchen can store the regular items at arm's length. You can hold the salt and pepper shakers, tissues, oil bottles, tea bags, etc., here. If you do not like organising the spice drawer, keep the bottles on a tray and clean it in a swipe.
- Entryway tray: Use a tray on a footstool with storage at the entryway. As you enter through the door, leave your keys, sunglasses, mail, coins, and umbrella on the tray. This way, you will never have to search for these items around the house and be late for work again. Placing the mail on the tray will keep the kitchen top or coffee table clutter-free; everyone can access them.
