Trays and their Ingenious Uses

Yes trays. I really am devoting a blog to trays. I love them. They are a fantastic way of organising and keeping items tidy in the home plus they come in some seriously cool shapes, colours and sizes.
Other than their obvious use as a dinner table alternative, I use mine to store our spirits on which create a nice mini bar area. Jewellery, makeup, stationery supplies, keys and other items you need to drop near the front door. Here are my favourites.
