Decorative trays are one of the easiest ways to style an ottoman while keeping it practical. In living rooms where ottomans are often used as coffee tables, footrests, or extra seating, a well-chosen tray helps organize everyday items and adds a refined touch to the space. The right tray brings balance, keeps surfaces neat, and increases the overall look of the room.
Below are five decorative and elegant tray styles that work beautifully on ottomans:

How to Style a Tray on an Ottoman
Styling a tray correctly makes a big difference in how the ottoman looks and functions. A well-arranged tray should feel intentional, not crowded.
Simple styling tips:
- Use odd numbers of decorative items for balance
- Mix different heights for visual interest
- Leave some space to avoid a heavy look
- Choose items that match the tray material for a cleaner appearance
- Keep frequently used items easy to reach
- Add one soft element, like a furry accent or coaster, for warmth
- Avoid overcrowding the tray with too many small objects
These small details help keep the ottoman looking stylish and easy to use, while also making it practical for daily routines such as serving drinks, placing décor, or simply keeping essentials within reach.
Decorative trays help turn ottomans into functional and stylish focal points. In case you choose a round, rectangular, square, compact, or oval marble tray, the right piece adds beauty and organization to your living space.
