Dot & Drift Wooden Tray

Classic Shape: BrookeLynn's Home Gathering Tray Collection

This is the tray that makes a room feel pulled together—coffee table, console, or kitchen counter—instantly more intentional. Use it to gather what you reach for every day, and let the surface become a small moment of order and calm.

Made from real wood, finished by hand. Grain, stain depth, and resin sheen will vary—your tray will be similar in spirit, never identical in pattern.

Customizable Handle Styles

Choose the finishing touch that best suits your style and space. Each option is thoughtfully designed to complement the artistry of your tray and add a unique character to your home.

Clean Line

A handle-free, streamlined edge that lets the artistry and natural materials shine. This understated finish is perfect for those who love a crisp, modern look—ideal for showcasing your tray as a centerpiece or decorative accent.

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.

Moonlit Accent

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.

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.
