Tray not to get too excited about this post! Okay, enough lame puns (for now). We’ve been seeing gorgeous serving trays everywhere for the longest time, so it’s only fair it gets its own post, right?

I came across this website called Designs by Three of a Kind, and they offer a lot of cute stuff for your home, including these personalized lucite trays.

Doesn’t this take you right back to the beach?

You can choose the background pattern and color, as well as the monogram style and initials. Fab, isn’t it?
*
The lucite tray isn’t just for serving refreshments, it works (and looks) great as a desk organizer too, like on this chic desk featured in Rue Magazine. I love the fact that the owner of this desk actually put a gold tray into the acrylic tray.
*
You could always buy a regular tray and customize it yourself to save some bucks. This one is available at CB2.

I just LOVE this studded acrylic tray!! It is made by Nicole Cohen and was previously available in her Etsy store.

white tray, blue tray
These two gorgeous trays are available at Plantation. LOVE the handles!
*
The unwritten rule is: if Lonny Magazine says it goes, it definitely goes! A chic zebra tray keeps family photos and pencils in perfect order in this cute work space.
*
These FAUX zebra trays are pretty cute too, right? I really like the handles on these. Available at Executive Gifts.
*
Z gallerie has a lot of cute trays, like this black lacquer one in a faux crock finish. Click here to read a tutorial on Apartment Therapy by Eddie Ross on how to create your own high end crock tray!

Another tray by Z gallerie. This might just be a bit too much for me, but it comes in other colors too.
*
A cute mirrored tray, also Z gallerie.

Now this one is just gorgeous. It’s available at Plantation, of course (they carry gorgeous items only!)

Love the lucite with the monogram, how fun would that be to serve drinks on the patio. Love the idea of it on a desk also. I am going to have to check this out!! Kathysue

I love trays, especially a lucite one atop an ottoman, like the one pictured above. There’s just something about it that does it for me!

I love this idea and always forget about it as the simplest little design idea to add colour or accessories to a space….I want one for my bed, I love the idea of having a vase on my bed(insert crazy eyes). Have a great day.

I like how trays make items look organized or collected. That sure is a pretty gold round one by Plantation. Have to check that out. Thanks! Really nice post.

I adore that gold one from plantation too! I am now going to be looking for one like it but in a price range I can manage! :)
