FOUND THIS SEAGRASS TRAY AT GOODWILL

My Water Hyacinth knockoff tray is harder to pronounce than to knockoff.

But it was so fun when I found a Pottery Barn knockoff of this popular seagrass tray.

It’s because of this fun decor hack I had my eye out for this type of chunky tray.

I found it at Goodwill when a girlfriend and I made a quick trip to search for vintage cookbooks.

No luck on the cookbooks but when I found this seagrass tray I was excited.

Goodwill, like garage sales, can be hit or miss. My friend’s eyes may have glazed over with my enthusiasm for a knockoff serving tray.

Pottery Barn’s tray retails for just under $100.00

Except I paid $3.00. That is less than a tall skinny black coffee at Starbucks.

POTTERY BARN WATER HYACINTH SERVING TRAY KNOCKOFF

Looking back, I think that’s why I knew it was the closest thing to the Pottery Barn serving tray because I had my eye on the one offered online from one of my favorite stores.

The hardest part for me at a Goodwill store is the smell

When I got the serving tray home, gave it a good shake over the kitchen sink to release any dust or debris.

I disinfected it with Lysol spray and a good rinse with my new favorite cleaner.

I added a slate cheese tray for the bottom of the tray because I planned to store my olive oil and balsamic vinegar collections from here and here.

My bottles can wobble, but I don’t want them to fall down.

I love the handles most of all! What do you think of my $3.00 tray?

Here is another Pottery Barn knockoff for Halloween!

  1. I love that you added the cheese tray to make it a more sturdy tray. Looks great.

  3. I love second hand baskets; new, they are SOOO expensive. I give mine a QUICK scrub in lukewarm soapy water and my veggie brush. In winter, they go over the hot air register, in summer, the sunshine! Often a quick clear spray of matte or shiny makes them new again! I have a lot of my collection hanging from forged looking nails off my bedroom beams (cathedral ceiling) as well as holding things everywhere!
