I Am Lovin' this Tray from IKEA!


I am in love with this simple, metal tray from IKEA.


It is not new.  
It has been in their regular stock for some time.
However, I find myself reaching 
for another one each time 
I make trip to IKEA.
Which is not that often, 
since a road trip is necessary.
It is called ROMANTISK 
and retails for $10.00


I find them handy in places all over my house.
They are great to corral books and magazines
in the bedroom.


Have a dark bookcase?
They make great backdrops
to lighten up a dark area.


How about in the living room,
atop a stool to give a little extra height  
to an end table?


By the way,
isn't my lamp gorgeous?
It was hand woven by my 
friend Katherine, 
who is an outstanding basket weaver.


This week I found another use for my
favorite tray.
I have wanted a chalkboard in my kitchen
and created the perfect one!


Bet you could find all sorts of handy places for one too!

Linking this week with:
Motivate Me Monday at Keeping It Simple
Brag About It Tuesday at BeBetsy andVMG206
Centerpiece Wednesday at The Style Sisters

Well thanks a lot girlfriend! Now I'm in love with it too and there are no Ikeas in my state! It looks fabulous in the places you have them and I love your little vignettes! Especially those sheep... another thing to add to my list... my decorating list never seems to get any smaller, lol!

I think that your tray is lovely, but I'm in love with your sheep. They are adorable :)

I love it. Do you know I have never been to an Ikea store? The closest one is about four hours away from here. I really should make the trip. I love the tray and WHAT a good price! xo Diana

I believe that lamp is one of the most beautiful I've ever seen. Simply stunning and the quality is superb. How nice to have a friend who is so generous with her talent! What a heirloom!

The tray is so cute and I like it more after what you did to it.
