I think of accessories in the home as the jewelry...
The items you put on last - to accessorize and compliment your outfit.
They aren't actually useful really...
they don't organize, or have a specific function.
But they are important in a non-essential way - adding interest, color, personality and beauty to a room.
One accessory in particular; however, has proven it can be both 'useful' and 'jewelry'.
Trays are a useful item for carting things to and from the table, but that isn't the tray's only talent.

They can add charm
or make a personality statement.
They can be casual or elegant...
The right tray and what you put on it can greatly impact the design of your room.
They can add texture, color or shine.

Or they can simply provide a resting place for more random items
that would normally get lost in household clutter

Think outside the box a little when you are shopping -
is there someplace in your home where you could use a tray?
