St Patrick's Day Tier Tray
 
As I have mentioned in the past, I love to decorate tier trays for the holidays. I know there are others here who do it as well, so I thought it would be fun to share some photos of our trays for St. Patrick's Day. Here is mine:

I collect one/two cup teapots, and this little leprechaun is one of my favorites, so I had to do a close crop to show him off. Honestly, he just makes me smile.

Since I don't have a kitchen island or much counter space for that matter, I put my tier tray on an end table in the living room and add the small letter board beside the tray to "finish off" the arrangement.

I think this one might need some more greenery, but I didn't have any thing that really worked so I am on a search for some that is soft, full and flexible. I want to be able to weave it around things to help soften it all. :)

Now, I want to see what you all have done. If you have a tier tray, share a photo so I can ooh and ahhh and be inspired.

Love this Lorie! I love seeing all these decorated themed trays! I really wanted to do one for Christmas but couldn't find a nice tray as it's not really done here.

Love seeing themed trays as well

So adorable! I really want to make some for my house, but have little space for storage, and three kids who suck up all of my free time :D

Those are fun, Lorie! I really love the cup, it's so cute!

Your tray is so cute! Is that a little scale riser your "pinch" bowl is on? It's great!

This is on an entry way table/behind a couch. There is so little space between the bottom & top tiers that it's been tricky for me to find things to put on the bottom...I love your letter tile rack, something like that would definitely work for me on the bottom tier!

That is so cute!! I love the tray, but yeah, it would be hard to use the bottom shelf. I love the scrabble tiles, so I have a number of them. Been thinking about making my own too. The tiles are pretty inexpensive, so it might be worth it to be able to customize as I wish.

Don't tell anyone, but I have 6 different tier trays, one that is about 5 feet tall, in my house and have given two to my sister. All six are decorated, but the other ones are more general to match the decor and not holiday themed. I don't change them as often.

Do you find it hard to use the garland? For some reason, I just can't seem to find anything more to do with it than lay it somewhere. LOL

Thanks everyone. I think I may be a bit gonzo over decorating these things. LOL

I love your display, Lorie. :) Yours, too, Rebecca. :)

Ours changes year to year. Well, I have it out most of the time with non-holiday items on it. But, when we switch out the decorations for a holiday, it hasn't looked the same each time. I've got St. Patrick's Day, Valentine's Day, and 4th of July specific decorations for it. I think for Easter and Fall, we just pull from other decorations to fill it. For Christmas, I've got way too many other decorations to put out and the tray gets put away. lol I mostly let Nathan place the decorations on it however he wants to. :)
