Different types of trays
Imagine a beautiful metal tray without a rim that you use as decoration on the coffee table. In the evening, a lovely scented candle burns and the tray glows with a dancing flame. Simply bring even more atmosphere into your home.
Guests over the floor? An elegant wooden tray with handles helps you move all the drinks in one go. And if you want to serve appetisers, you can quickly bring them to the table with the tray. Add a candle or flower and it immediately looks beautiful.
How do you style a tray?
When you're not using your tray, you can easily store it in the cupboard. Although that is quite a shame when it is a beautiful design. Place the tray on the table, the kitchen counter or even an ottoman. Add a candle or a small vase with flowers. Or choose your decoration according to the space. For example, you can add a salt and pepper shaker in the kitchen. Or your favourite book in the living room.
Cleaning and maintaining your tray
How to maintain and clean a tray depends on the material it is made of. Marble and glass trays are best cleaned with a damp cloth and some mild detergent. Some plastic trays can withstand anything and can even be washed in the dishwasher.
What is also important for the longevity of your tray is not to overload it. Always try to spread out the items on your tray as much as possible and take into account the material the tray is made of. Wooden and metal trays can often hold much heavier items than thin plastic trays.
