Silver Tray Update

The day my post went up on the quick decorating with the two oval shaped silver trays I found {here} ~ I found the third one I needed!  So, as a quick post, here is an update with the third tray in place.  Here is the wall with nothing {which my husband was more than happy with}.

Here it is with the two trays.

Finally, with the third tray in place. I think this is a good way to see how much better odd numbered things work in décor, too.

This tray didn’t clean up as shiny, but I love the detailing around the edge and that it is monogrammed.

I really thought I would have a hard time finding this shape, but it didn’t take me long at all to get all three.  I found all three of these trays at thrift stores.  Tureens on the other hand ~ I’m still waiting to find that last one I need for on top of my kitchen cabinets!

Looks great, and you did need a third.

So happy you found one so quickly, even though I was hoping you were gonna come here and we'd go thrifting together to find one around here, haha.

That was quick! Your trays look great, and I agree, odd numbers look best. If I'm looking for one more of anything, it seems nearly impossible to accomplish. :)

I love silver trays. The more tarnished the better. Your's look great in this spot. I especially love the monogram. And I'm still waiting for my first thrift store tureen. :) Maybe one of these days.

They see to be hung a little too high on the wall. Maybe you could measure and space them better? Just a thought...

Marsha @ Tattered Chick said...

In this case three is NOT a crowd :) Love the initialed one . . . I prefer tarnished silver :)

Those look great! You need more! More is better! Did you hang them with those DiscHanger things? I just bought some online bc they don't sell them anywhere here.

What is it with these silly men? They just don't get it. :) Your trays look perfect!

Kathy, I love this tray! Monograms are one of my favorite things! The three together are fabulous! What great finds!

I agree, 3 is so much better. I love hanging plates but I have never tried trays. They look beautiful.
