Styling Your Home with Trays: 5 Chic Ways to Use Decorative Trays in Every Room

Decorative trays are the unsung heroes of home styling. They’re not only practical but effortlessly chic — instantly bringing order, elegance, and a touch of luxury to any space. Whether you love a minimalist look or bold statement decor, a tray is your best friend.

At Lumenstone, our handmade trays aren’t just accents — they’re anchors of beautiful spaces. Let’s dive into 5 stylish ways you can use decorative trays to elevate every corner of your home.


🛋️ 1. Living Room Luxe: The Coffee Table Catch-All

Your coffee table is the centerpiece of your living room — and a well-placed tray can bring it all together beautifully. Use it to:

  • Group candles, coasters, and a small vase for a cozy, curated vibe
  • Display a favorite book stack and a decorative jar for that “Pinterest-worthy” look
  • Contain everyday clutter in a way that still looks intentional

Pro Tip: Choose a tray with gold or textured details to add a hint of glam.


🛏️ 2. Bedroom Bliss: Vanity or Nightstand Organizer

Say goodbye to tangled jewelry and scattered skincare! A tray on your bedside table or vanity helps:

  • Keep perfumes, lip balms, and night creams tidy
  • Display your favorite ring dish or candle
  • Add style without taking up too much space

Style Idea: Pair with a floral candle from our collection for a feminine, serene touch.


🍽️ 3. Dining Room Elegance: Centerpiece Base

Want an easy way to change your dining room look with the seasons? A decorative tray can serve as a rotating centerpiece base. Simply add:

  • A candle bundle with fresh flowers
  • Seasonal fruits or faux botanicals
  • Napkin rings, salt shakers, or spice jars

It adds visual interest while making everything feel connected.


🛁 4. Bathroom Zen: Spa-Inspired Styling

Even the smallest spaces deserve love! Place a tray on your bathroom counter or shelf to create a spa-like feel. Use it to organize:

  • Soaps, hand towels, essential oils
  • A mini diffuser or floral-scented candle
  • Small jars for cotton pads or bath salts

Choose soft hues or marble-inspired textures to keep things serene and elegant.


🧑‍🍳 5. Kitchen Corners: Functional & Beautiful

Yes — even your kitchen can benefit from a decorative tray! Use one to:

  • Hold your oil bottles, salt & pepper, and a mini plant by the stove
  • Keep tea-time essentials like sugar jars, teaspoons, and mugs in one stylish spot
  • Make your countertops look cleaner and more organized

Lumenstone Tip: Match your tray with jars from our collection for a cohesive look.
