Vintage Saturdays: Silver Trays

For anyone who loves going to estate sales, flea markets, and garage sales as much as me, you know how easy it can be to find beautiful old silver trays.  They come in so many sizes, styles and degrees of aging.  Beyond using them for their originally intended purpose, what else can you do with these beauties? 

Casa Sugar creates magnetic inspiration boards.  What a great way to kickstart your ideas for your home renovation or your next craft project.

Goodbye, House.  Hello, Home! used a reticulated tray and some berry garland to create a ridiculously awesome front door wreath.

DishfunctionalDesigns suggests gathering several of them, mounting hooks on the back and then hanging them as part of a large collection on the wall.

Unchanginggrace creates beautiful 

wall vases by mounting a small jar 

onto a metal tray.  Very cool.
