Noir Accent

Matte black handles add a bold, modern touch while echoing the deeper hues in the design. Effortlessly functional and striking, these accents make carrying your tray as easy as it is elegant.

Polished handles with a gentle, silvery sheen—these “Moonlit” accents add a luminous, contemporary touch. Designed to catch the light and elevate your tray, they’re both functional and beautifully refined for any setting.

Each handle finish is crafted to enhance both the beauty and versatility of your tray. Select your preferred style before adding to cart.

Wooden Trays: Care & Maintenance

Our trays are crafted from spruce, pine, or fir, with the interior surface finished in resin for durability and beauty. The exterior sides and bottom are stained and coated with lacquer for a natural look and protection. For best results:

Everyday Cleaning (Interior Resin Surface): Wipe with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Remove spills promptly to avoid staining or warping. Mild, diluted soap can be used for sticky spots, followed by a clean, dry cloth. Never soak or rinse under running water.
No Dishwasher: Do not place in the dishwasher or immerse in water. Moisture can damage both the resin and the wood.
Heat Caution: Avoid placing hot pots, pans, or dishes directly on the resin surface. Use trivets or coasters to protect from heat damage.
Resin Surface: The resin interior is durable but can scratch—avoid cutting or using sharp utensils directly on the tray.
Exterior Cleaning (Stained & Lacquered Sides/Bottom): Wipe gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads, which may dull or remove the lacquer finish.
Storage: Store trays flat in a cool, dry place. Avoid stacking heavy items on top to maintain shape and finish.

General Display & Storage Tips

Rotate Displays: Change display locations occasionally to ensure even exposure to light and prevent fading.
Safe Storage: When not in use, store items in original packaging or wrap in a soft cloth to avoid scratches or dust buildup.
Avoid Extremes: Keep all artisan décor away from direct heat, humidity, and sunlight to preserve finishes and prevent warping.
Group with Care: When displaying sets or bundles, ensure items are not stacked in a way that might cause pressure marks or scratches.

Wooden Trays: Artisan Technique Glossary

Wood Selection
Trays are crafted from carefully chosen spruce. Each piece with its own grain and character.

Hand Sanding
Every surface is smoothed by hand, revealing the natural beauty of the wood beneath.

Stain Application
Rich stains in hues like Jacobean or Golden Oak soak into the grain, enhancing warmth and depth.
Resin Coating
A crystal-clear resin is poured over the tray, sealing the wood and creating a glossy, durable finish.

Edge Routing
Edges are shaped with precision tools for comfort and elegance.

Joinery
Corners and seams are joined with care, ensuring strength and longevity.

Grain Highlighting
Techniques are used to accentuate the wood’s natural lines and patterns.

Protective Feet
Small pads are added to the base, keeping surfaces scratch-free.

Batch Finishing
Trays are finished in groups, allowing for quality checks at every stage.

Signature Branding
Each tray bears a branded or signed mark, a subtle reminder of its artisan origin.

Q: Are your wooden trays waterproof?
A: They are resin-coated for protection, but I don’t recommend soaking or leaving standing water on the surface. Quick wipe-ups are perfect.

Q: Can I use a BrookeLynn’s Home tray for food?
A: I recommend using trays for styling, serving wrapped items, or as a decorative catch-all. If you plan to use it around food, use a liner or place items on plates/napkins.

Q: How do I clean a resin-coated wooden tray?
A: Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and dry right away. Avoid abrasive sponges and harsh cleaners, which can dull the finish.

Q: Can I place hot mugs or candles on the tray?
A: Use a coaster or heat-safe base. Resin finishes can soften with high heat, so I recommend protecting the surface from very hot items.

Q: Will the stain color vary?
A: Yes—wood grain is naturally unique, and stain absorbs differently from piece to piece. That variation is part of the handcrafted character.

Q: Can I cut food directly on a resin-coated wooden tray?
A: I don’t recommend it. Cutting can scratch the resin surface. If you’re serving, use a cutting board or plates to keep the finish pristine.

Q: What happens if my tray gets wet underneath (like condensation)?
A: Wipe it dry as soon as possible. Condensation can sit unnoticed and may affect wood over time. A quick dry-down protects both the wood and the finish.

Q: Can I use your tray outdoors on a patio?
A: For short periods, yes—but I don’t recommend leaving it outdoors. Sun, temperature swings, and moisture can stress both wood and resin finishes.

Q: How do I prevent scratches on a resin-coated tray?
A: Avoid dragging heavy or rough items across the surface. Felt pads under décor pieces and gentle handling go a long way.

Q: What should I do if the tray feels slightly tacky?
A: Tacky texture is usually a sign of heat exposure or a surface reacting to a cleaner. Move it to a cooler area, stop using chemical cleaners, and wipe gently with a damp cloth, then dry.
