Everything old is new again! The pandemic has really changed the way that we live and during quarantine that meant people getting into making bread from scratch, doing all of the puzzles (We have done at least 20), and for us, it meant falling in love with TV trays tables all over again. When I was growing up we had an old school set of 4 TV tray tables with a stand that we would use from time to time. It was never something that I had in my house as an adult, but now with both Jon and I working from home, we needed an additional spot to get some work done and be able to watch the kids at the same time. So, I did a little digging and found some pretty chic options and decided to test one out! It’s now become our favorite place to work and the boys love it for when they want to have a snack in the family room. So, now we are constantly moving the TV tray table around.
Here she is in all her glory! I took it over the day and brought down my laptop and some pretty flowers to make it homier! It’s the best area to work from once the boys are home from school.
It’s C shaped so it will slide right under the sofa to make a tighter fit once you are doing using it.
I really liked the mix of white and wood. Totally modernizes the look of a TV tray table!
I rounded up some of my favorites if you are on the hunt for the same type of table!
No.1 Metal and Wood C Shape TV Tray Table with wheels: I like the wheels option here which makes it easy to move it around. I would probably not leave it in the same metal tone. I would spraypaint it just like I did with this rolling cart! I constantly get people asking me where oh where they can get the same pink rolling cart and I have to share that I customized it and it came in a black metal finish!
No.2 Acrylic and Gold Folding Table Tray: So chic and stylish! It’s the most expensive one and I was afraid the kids would scratch it up.
No.3 White TV Tray Table: This is the most budget-friendly option coming in at $25!
No. 4 Metal and Wood C Shape TV Tray Table For this option I would totally spray paint the metal base! I would make it a pop of color to fit more with my decor and look a bit more customized!
No. 5 L-Shaped Table: This is the one we have and love! It comes in all white or all wood.
No. 6 Z-Shaped Table: Made by the same company as the one we have just with a different base. It also comes in a white finish, all wood finish, and white and wood finish.
My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
In our new home, the basement was completely unfinished. It was literally one of those dark spaces that you see in horror movies and are terrified of getting locked into. However, with the square footage in this house, I knew I needed to make the basement another workable and liveable floor of the house instead […]
What to look for when it comes to picking out kitchen appliances: Leave room in your budget for appliances. When it comes to kitchen renovations everyone knows that the cabinetry and the labor of demoing and installing cabinetry is going to eat a lot of your budget. However, the second most expensive part of a […]
I don’t think I’m alone in thinking that designing a kitchen is an overwhelming undertaking. I’m an interior designer and even I find it stressful to iron out all of those details. So, when it comes time to design a kitchen I always like to partner with a kitchen designer to make sure I’m remembering […]
