Today I’m excited to share my Fourth of July Tiered Tray with you. Fourth of July is one of my very favorite holidays. I have so many happy family memories tied to this fun summer holiday, and I just love decorating for it. Last weekend, we decided that a visit to an antique mall about an hour from home. You guys, I haven’t checked out a new antique store since we took our weekend trip to the Amana Colonies in […]

This weekend, I turned my Winter Tiered Tray into a Valentine’s Day Tiered Tray. I got my tiered tray about a year ago, and decorated it for the first time for St. Patty’s Day. This is now the end of my year-long cycle of decorating it for every season and holiday. 😂 My Valentine’s Day Tiered Tray came together very quickly, because I reused some of the same elements from my Winter Tiered Tray. You can see the mini books […]

Winter is in full force now, so why not embrace it and decorate! This winter tiered tray & entryway table are great ways to add a little “winter warmth” to your home decor. Winter Woods Theme Most of my Christmas decor is down, but I decided to stick with a bit of winter woods vibe for now, since Iowa is currently blanketed under several inches of snow. Getting all the spring and Valentines things out just yet doesn’t seem fitting. […]

My favorite tiered tray is back again, this time decked out as a tiered tray for Christmas. Most of my holiday decor this year falls into what I’m calling “Rustic Woodland”. I’ve decorated with mostly neutral colors with pops of red, and embellished with elements reminscent of a woodland forest–lots of greenery, red berries, and cardinals mixed in. I wanted my tiered tray to have that same vibe. How to Make A Tiered Tray for Christmas The bright red cardinals […]

This Early Fall Apple Themed Tiered Tray is a great way to transition between summer decor and traditional fall decor. If you’re not quite ready to go “full-on pumpkin” yet, this is fill the gap. It’s feeling like fall in Iowa this week, friends. I’m not talking about lovely crisp autum days with sunshine and gently falling leaves and all. No. I’m talking about literally overnight going from 90s and sunny, to 40s/50s, dark, windy, and rainy for going on […]

This Farmhouse Inspired Tiered Tray is a fun way to decorate with real farmhouse style! After July 4th passed, and I took down all my Americana decor, I was left wondering how to decorate my favorite tiered tray next. There isn’t really another holiday coming soon, and we’re stuck right now in the dog days of summer. Inspired by another socially-distanced antique shopping excursion my husband and I went on last weekend, I decided to use some of my new […]

Plus, I have a few bonus thoughts about liberty bouncing around in my head … Liberty… Recently, my husband and I were looking for something to do on one of his days off that would get us out of the house for awhile, but still be responsible, safe and socially distant from other people. I know many people have just gone back to “business as usual”, but […]

After what felt like a return to winter last week, it’s finally starting to feel like spring around here again, thank the Lord. I’m celebrating spring by designing my Spring Garden Tiered Tray today. When I put away the few Easter decorations on my tiered tray, I decided to restyle it with a spring garden theme. Right now, nature, sun and fresh air are one of the few luxuries we can still enjoy, and I’m hanging on to them for […]

Because of the current coronavirus situation, we won’t be having our traditional big family Easter dinner. As a result, I really didn’t do much in the way of decorating for Easter this year, other than my entryway table Easter vignette, and this Easter tiered tray in the middle of my kitchen island. I ordered this tray last month, and had fun styling it for the first time for St. Patrick’s Day. When I got ready to redo my tray for […]

A Tiered Tray for St. Patrick’s Day is such a fun way to bring the luck of the Irish into your home. 🍀 I see tiered trays everywhere, in a variety of different styles. I think it’s because they are so fun to accessorize, and can easily be changed up from one season or holiday to the next. I have a large island in my kitchen, so I like to have some kind of centerpiece in the middle of it […]
