17 gorgeous trinket trays |
 |
| Michael Murtaugh/NYT Wirecutter |
A beautiful trinket tray is something of an organizing triple threat: It reduces visual clutter by corralling loose odds and ends, it allows for easy access to the things you use every day, and it looks beautiful on display.
Editor Jennifer Hunter keeps them all over the house, throwing in clutter, like lip balms and receipts, throughout the day. “Eventually, I tackle organizing the stuff inside,” she says, “but at least it’s neat-ish in the meantime.”
Whether you like something patterned and bold or sleek and minimalist, our favorites are sturdy, versatile, and very good-looking.
