Hi Everyone,

Yes, you heard it right, NEW spring trays are here and I couldn’t be more in love with them. If you haven’t had a chance to see them up-close yet, I highly suggest you get acquainted. Let’s just say that by having these trays sprinkled around my home, I’m escaping to East Hampton, getting lost in the mesmerizing HawaiiSwirl, and adding the perfect touch of spring to my space with these Butterflies from Bolivia—all at the same time. To give you some inspo on how to style these brand new trays in your space, I’m giving you a little mini tour of how I’m using them at home and the 10 things I have on my tray right now. Let’s get right into it, shall we?

In the Kitchen

The best part about these trays is that they also come in the serving size with carved out handles included, which means they feel right at home in the kitchen. So put out your prettiest liqueur, simple salt and pepper, or your everyday cooking oils and you’re good to go!

In the Office

Let’s be real… There’s a LOT of things in an office that need to be organized, and I love having one of my trays on hand at all times to do the job. It looks chic, adds a pop of personality to my space, and keeps every little thing in its place.

In the Master Bath

I’ve been a longtime fan of Kate Somerville products, so I always have at least one or two sitting on the counter in our master bath. (By the way, if you haven’t seen my skin transformation with her yet, click here to see the amazing before and after!) But whatever products you put on your tray, this Kailua Swirl looks like a dream on a vanity or bathroom counter.

In the Living Room

And of course, no coffee table in my house exists without one of my favorite trays atop it. The East Hampton tray looks like it was made for this very spot in my front room, don’t you think? I topped it off with a classic travel book I’ve had for some time now, and this Jonathan Adler dish adds the perfect eclectic touch.
