These are fabulous. I am going to my first garage sale of the season this weekend. I’ll be on the lookout for some TV trays.

I always love the patterns of wallpaper and fabric shown in these type of examples. Where do you find them? Are there any good online resources out there.

those are TOO cute!!

I love this idea! Thank you!

What a great idea–I was actually thinking TV trays would be a handy way to display my wares at the farmers market–this would make them extra special, and then no need to drape it with anything. Thanks!

lovely, simple project. am wondering, however, where one buys/acquires cool wallpaper scraps such as the ones used in your project. any tips?

i used to eat on these when i was a kid at gammys(grandma) house. cool

How nice!

These are awesome . Something I would of never thought to cover.

What a cute idea. I am going to be on the lookout for some TV trays to salvage!

I love the orange…very drawn to warm colours right now for some reason. Maybe because summer is on the way!

These are so pretty– and so lively! I love the graphic print.

So great, and congrats on the book!

the whole set up of this room is completely adorable! (:

Great idea!

But is there no end to sticking paper on things? To crocheting things? Somethings are what they are. I respect that thingness.

Perhaps I am simply behind the times.

off topic but…where did that amazing taupe throw pillow come from?

best idea ever LOVE THIS!

Great idea! I would love to know where both pillows are from too!

Does anyone know where the sofa is from?

I love them! Great idea and that print is one of my favorites. Casa Pinka papered her fridge in it and it looks awesome!

What a fabulous idea!!!

TV trays are really hard to find second hand. For some reason not many seem to have survived the past 30 years. I found some at Peppergreen in Berrima for anyone in NSW, Australia.

My parents have those exact same trays! Freaky.

Great idea, I love this look and there are so many endless patterns one could use!

Adorable TV tray vignette photo.

Thanks! This is what I need! I’m sick of using those dodgy “Stable tables” from the eighties (not kidding). I always make sure they’re hidden if I’m expecting visitors.

I’m in love with this! Maybe I need to doctor up my own TV trays, which are completely not exciting. Thanks for the inspiration, guys!

I agree with neaner and Lauren and I’m in the fabric business but have still not found a resource for small amounts of hip wallpaper. I’m dieing to do the inside of my black, glass doored china cabinet and don’t want to purchase a double roll and the cool w-paper cos. won’t even respond to the question. Help !!

Great Idea…Thanks for the Post!!

Given the scarcity of TV trays, try lining a wooden or lucite tray to get a similar effect.

cute tv trays? who knew? fantastic idea.

Fabulous idea! Easy and the results are stunning!

I think they’re cute but I do agree with LPC…. sometimes it’s good to respect an object’s “thingness” !

Best idea ever. I Thing

i’m late to the discussion, but if there’s anybody in the dc area that would like to try this, my FIL just tried to give some old tv tray tables away to salvation army – and they wouldn’t take them! (perhaps this is why nobody can find them?) they’re not in the greatest shape, but would prob clean up real nice like these pretty wallpapered ones! email me at mog1980 *at* aol *dot* com if interested?

If you live in OZ – GoLo has wooden foldaway TV-tray tables at the moment for $16.99. I snagged one the other day and am about to decoupage away (as it isn’t metal I have to go about this a bit differently)

Responding to Lauren and Suzanne, a great place to start looking for small bits of cool wallpaper is in wallpaper sample books. Often paint/wallpaper stores will either give away old books of discontinued wallpaper (they are often happy to be rid of them) or will sell the books for cheap! Just ask with a big smile on your face.

Good luck!

I found the deer pillow at K Studio in case anyone was interested. Here is the link: http://kstudiohome.myshopify.com/collections/pillows/products/woodland-creatures

Home Depot has wallpaper samples for about a buck 50 with no shipping charge. Pretty cute stuff especially if you’re looking for vintage like i was.(:

Where or where is that wallpaper from? I’m dying to know! Please, please, oh pretty please let us know!

Thanks,
Sarah
