Now that I have my house, can see the walls, the rooms and know what the clay I have the opportunity to mold actually is, I am scooping up deals on items I have long saved in my shopping cart or in my email files. Never one to want to pay full price as I know you aren’t either, but someone who wants quality items, and also knowing that when a big “Sale” weekend arrives, major brands will likely have a site-wide discount, I was happy to see Serena & Lily’s Bedford Tray go on sale.

Shopping Tip: I use Shoptagr and Honey regularly to alert me to sales on items I love and find any promo code that is available.

And I was even happier when I found an additional promo code (see the end of this post) that saved me even more money on top of the 30% sale on dining furniture and decor.

Having had the opportunity to peruse a brick and mortar Serena & Lily this past June while in San Francisco, I will always be a fan of seaside decor — light, subtle neutrals designed to last and provide soothing comfort. Stepping into their shop sealed the deal even further and there were too many items and decor inspiration ideas to count that I wanted to welcome into my sanctuary.

However, I still have an immense amount of decorating planning to do with my home, so knowing which BIG items will make their way into my home will take time; however, I have been looking to include more trays in my home, and have picked up secondhand ones over the years as well as a few seagrass beauties (you can see many of the trays in my #tsllsundaymorning IG posts). Simple, yet functional for not only serving meals, appetizers or drinks, but also for decorating a table top with a beautiful vignette complete with tabletop books, a vase of flowers and unique souvenirs that share a glimpse of the home’s inhabitants. A few years ago I shared a post on how to style a tray, and I continue to have fun deciding how to incorporate trays into my home as the seasons change, life changes and more books and flowers are savored.

And now to the sale! For the Labor Day weekend, Serena & Lily is having a sale on Dining! Save 30% automatically, no promo code necessary. This includes furniture as well as decor details. And here is the additional savings piece: Use promo code E-884HQ2-B to save an additional 15% off at check out along with the already included 30% off.

I have shopped a few items below (simply scroll your mouse over the top of each item and click), as well as linked to the Bedford Tray I purchased (three sizes are available and these trays are sturdy – having seen them in person – and LARGE – the square tray is 28″ wide!). Start shopping and happy sanctuary making! (sale ends at the end of on Tuesday September 3rd)
