Since I was in a furniture store, I figured it would have a high price tag. Plus, the size is generous, 15" x 25". I was, oh, so wrong! For less than $30, including tax, this beauty came home with me. Since I thought lightening might strike twice, I priced another one of their trays--cough, cough--about $70, which is what I expected.
"Light"
To "trick" it out for Easter, I decided to try both a light and dark version of accessories.
"Dark"
Which to you like better? Dark or light? It's a tough decision, but someone's gotta make it! I'm thinking dark, but give me a couple days, or a couple minutes, and I might change to light.
Do you remember my eggs--Spring on one side, flowers and butterflies on the other--from Ross two years ago? I didn't even pull them out last year. Why?--they're so cute!
Speaking of cute. While I was paying, around the corner where I couldn't see, the sales associate was bagging the tray up. It really sounded like she was wrestling with some plastic. Um, that tray was packed in a LARGE bag. How large was it? This is 5'10" Artsy Chick nestled in it!
I'm so glad you stopped by today--how is your spring/Easter decorating going?
I leaning towards the dark, but I like the light also. Not much help was I?:o)
ReplyDeleteMy Spring/Easter decorating is going nowhere and will probably stay that way until my projects are finished!! Which may not be until summer at the speed I am moving.
Have a wonderful day.
Very pretty! We've got a lot of spring left (I hope), so you should get a chance to use both your light and dark decorations!
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, that's the biggest bag I've ever seen ;-)
Wow ~ I don't know, I like it both ways, Kim! Great find. Maybe you could do each look every other day. : ) Love those eggs!
ReplyDeleteFun find! It looks old-really old. Love the chick in the bag! Wonder how much you could get for THAT?;>) xo Diana
ReplyDeleteI love the tray what a great find Kim. I the light anf the dark. I would find some way to use them both ways.
ReplyDeleteWell, I agree they are both nice, but I really like the light toned items the best. It's spring . . .lighten up. Maybe, it's because the dark colors make me feel warm and cozy and that's a great feeling for winter. The lighter tones make me feel more light and energetic and that is spring to me. Just my humble option. Oh, by the way I love the tray, it would be perfect in my living room as well. Have a great day. If you have a spare minute come on over for a visit, my welcome mat is always out. Your fan and follower, Connie
ReplyDeleteKim,
ReplyDeleteI like the light version and what a deal you got on that tray!
Couldn't help but smile when I saw your 5'10 daughter in the bag! She must be really thin and limber. I am the same height and I know I couldn't do that. LOL
Thanks for your sweet comments on my photos and header. IT means a lot.

I like the dark!
ReplyDeleteHi Kim!
ReplyDeleteI lean more to the light, lets just Spring it up all the way!
Killer deal on the tray, it looks awesome!
Hugs,
Patti
Hey! What a great find. I love those colors! I like them both too. I think I like the dark colors but I like the arrangement of your light accessories. LOVE the pic of Artsy Chick!
