I never know what I am going to come across when I am out treasure hunting,like this sweet French vanity tray,not always knowing what I will find and what I will do with a piece when I find it.
Are you like that?
Do you go out treasure hunting never knowing what treasures you will find?
Or do you have an agenda of things on a ever going wishlist that seems to get longer?
When I first spotted this I was not sure it was coming home with me,I was looking at this tray and as I picked it up a gentleman told me that he was buying it.
At first I was a bit disappointed but something told me to keep shopping and come back.
So I did,I continued shopping came back and that gentleman had changed his mind because it was still still there on the shelf.
Honestly I am not quite sure what attracted me to this piece,probably the details because I am not big on gold pieces.
I have never seen a tray quite like this one,love the soft muted colors and the details.
The glass is pretty scratched up,even though you cannot see it in a photo.
But I am never about perfection when it comes to vintage pieces.
I love the reflection.
Never using pieces as they are intended this will not be used as a vanity tray.
Most likely it will be used as a tray for a pitcher of flowers.
I love adding a pitcher of flowers to a tray,it makes the bouquet of flowers even more gorgeous!

Thank you so much Joanne,Yes it’s fun finding these pieces.
I’m a sucker for vanity trays as well, but I’ve not found any as pretty as yours! How lucky that you went back and it was still there! Don’t you just love it when that happens?

Thank you Kathleen…yes this was a wonderful find!
It’s very pretty and different from what you normally see, Anne. I think I would have been drawn to it, too.
Thank you Kathy,yes this piece is so unique.
I love when you stumble upon such a good find that you weren’t even looking for, but once you find it you gotta have it! Your tray is very pretty and would look great wherever it is used.
Thanks so much Jennifer!
