HOW TO MAKE A THRIFTY ST. PATRICK’S TIERED TRAY
They can be a bit pricey, but I use my wood tiered tray every month. So as soon as I cleared away my Valentine’s Day tray decor I staged the same tray with a St. Patrick’s theme.
Oh, and I spent less than $7.00 for the entire St. Patrick’s theme.
Those tiered tray bundles on Etsy can get pricey.
ST. PATRICK’S DAY TIERED TRAY
What I love about a tiered tray is it is very low maintenance. It is a stage it and forget about it-accessory.
Trays can be fussy and fancy or plain and simple. Some tiered trays look like a townhome on the Upper West Side.
My tiered trays are more like a Winnebago. Lots of potential, cute, and no statement pieces on site. But they are so fun!
ST. PATRICK’S DAY
Unfortunately, for St. Patrick, his big day is between Valentine’s Day and Easter. The good thing is the color green can stay in cruise control from St. Patrick’s Day until Starbucks releases the Pumpkin Spice latte.
ST. PATRICK’S DAY TIERED TRAY
To keep the costs down to decorate a two-tiered tray I like to shop my house for green accessories that are small enough to fit into either the top or lower level.
A tiered tray is like a townhome where you have to navigate your furniture to either the main level or the upper level.
When decorating your tray choose ssories have fun! Shop your house for green accessories (the smaller the better).
I found these two cute signs at Hobby Lobby and Homegoods.
IDEAS TO DECORATE WITH GREEN
I bought one can of Rustoleum spray paint and painted a glass jar and woodblocks from a DIY project.
This is a repurposed candle jar and lid. I saved it for this project, but decided to spray paint it for this tray.
Love the contrast with the white tray.
With wood trim pieces I printed a few shamrocks and traced them onto the wood trim pieces with this Sharpie set for all my craft projects.
Pom-poms are best used in moderation.
The wood blocks, from previous projects, are a great and inexpensive way to decorate. I may add a second shade of green paint to add more contrast.
I used leftover wired ribbon and simply tied it around a wood block. It adds a bit of softness to thetable.
Thanks for stopping by today! I love how quickly a tiered tray comes together. It’s simple and adds a pop of color and holiday to the kitchen table.
