{the basics} The Trick of the Tray

While I might be a lightweight when it comes to actually consuming cocktails, setting a pretty bar is always at the top of my entertaining checklist. Any side table, counter, or dinning table can be turned into a beautiful styled bar in minutes. The trick? All you need a tray. By taking bar items and arranging them on a compact and defined area like a tray it creates and instant focal point for your guests. They are easy to store, mostly inexpensive, and can be styled for any season. I am loving these trays below and might soon be in need of a tray intervention.
