Goodwill Tray ~


 I recently picked up this tray at Goodwill for $2.99 - yes, $2.99. I wasn't exactly sure what I was going to do with it. 

 I thought maybe the on the counter in our master bath, maybe filled with odds and ends in my craft room - or here in the kitchen. 

Here is what I had before:

I was thinking this was pretty good. I liked the container and I loved that it all had a "place" (I know I am a little crazy like that). But this looks so much better -

That little Herbs of Provence is actually my salt jar. We don't use a ton of salt when cooking, but when grilling and sauteing veggies we tend to turn to sea salt for a little extra favor.

I love the details on the tray - my hubby thinks it looks a bit like Grandma's house, but I likey!

Oh, how I love this little dish.

So for $2.99, I am thrilled with my new tray for kitchen -

  4. Well if that is the case just think about how many people love to go to Grandma's house because it feels so comfy and special.
    It looks great.
