If your family enjoys decorating the house for every season, you should try tiered tray decorating. These tips will help you get started.

  1. Start with a two or three shelf tiered tray. You can also use a bread bowl. You can find these in many department stores, dollar stores, and home decor stores.
  2. Choose a theme. Decorate for a specific season or holiday, special event, your favorite sport or team, or let the kids choose.
  3. Add your favorite decor pieces. Small ceramic or plastic figures, little wooden signs, and small stuffed animals work well. 
  4. Add beads, garland, flowers, or greenery. A string of beads, garland around the outside of your tray, or artificial flowers or greenery add a touch of color.
  5. Add some accents. Fill small jars with candy, beads, or stones to fill spaces on your tray. 
  6. Create a tablescape. For maximum decor impact, place multiple trays together on a table.

Just like that, you have instant decor for every holiday, season, and occasion!

It doesn't have to cost a lot to decorate. You can find many seasonal and holiday decor items at the dollar stores or dollar bins at retail stores.

Kids really love helping with tiered tray decorating, too. Enlist their help to find the perfect decor pieces.

Your surfaces will look less cluttered with tiered tray decor. You can display many things in a small area.

Tiered tray decorating is perfect for holidays! A tiered tray makes the ideal centerpiece for your serving table, kitchen counter, island, or dinner table. 

Enjoy the fun of decorating your home with tiered trays. You may find a new family hobby!
