Lat weekend I bought a rustic tray from an antique mall. It caught my eye a week or so before and I didn’t buy it. I kept thinking about it and decided to go back and see if it was still there. It was and now it’s mine.
I knew it would look perfect with a collection of bottles inside it. I already had one old bottle that is clear with a neat metal cap. Then I found some colored ones online at West Elm which is a bit modern, but I thought the bottles looked vintage. Here is a link.
I placed them all in my tray with a few other elements and put it on my newly redone side table.
I bought the gray and olive bottles to go with my clear one. The gray one is on the left. I love it.
The handles are uneven in size. I think it give it creates character.
I love the cracks, nail heads showing and the weathered wood. All the old crevices held a ton of dirt in them. I used our air compressor to spray it all out. It worked like a charm.
I have a touch of fall in my tray for now and I will change it for Christmas.
I am glad the tray was still there. I know it is something I will enjoy for a long time.
