Vintage Metal Snack Trays Make Fun Displays Behind Glassware
Vintage metal snack trays are wonderful backdrops when displaying antiques and collectibles. I especially like to add color and interest behind vintage glassware and find the older 1940s and 1950s snack trays to be just the right size and shape for a kitschy look in my shop "Kitsch n Stuff". Notice how the colors of the tray and the glassware compliment each other.

I wonder what happened to all those cheerful metal trays. There were so many once upon a time.
ReplyDeleteThat really is a cool idea! (Rob)
ReplyDeleteI agree that Vintage Trays make Beautiful backdrops to any Vignette. We use ours every day as TV Trays too so they're not only pretty but functional.
