How to style handcrafted epoxy resin pieces in your home — room by room, piece by piece.

Why Epoxy Resin Belongs in Your Home

Epoxy resin decor sits at the intersection of art and function. Each Trayz N' Beyond piece is handcrafted in Knoxville, TN with premium pigments, mica powders, and glitter — making it a one-of-a-kind accent that no mass-produced item can replicate. Whether you're styling a bar cart, a coffee table, or a bedroom vanity, a resin piece instantly elevates the space.

Start With a Color Story

The most cohesive home decor starts with a color palette. Here are three popular directions and the pieces that fit each:

Palette Vibe Recommended Pieces
Black & Gold Luxe, bold, editorial Black & Gold Flake Coaster Set, Gold & Black Decor
Soft & Feminine Elegant, airy, romantic Pink Leopard Coaster Set, She is Fierce Coaster Set
Nature-Inspired Organic, warm, grounded Pressed Floral Lamp Base, Wildflower Flight Tray

Room-by-Room Styling Guide

Living Room & Coffee Table
Anchor your coffee table with a flight tray as the centerpiece. Layer in a coaster set for function, and add a lamp base for ambient glow. Keep the arrangement asymmetrical — odd numbers of objects always look more intentional.

Bar Cart
This is where epoxy resin shines. Use a flight tray as the base layer, add shot glasses, and flank with a lamp base for mood lighting. A coaster set keeps the surface protected and styled.

Bedroom Vanity or Dresser
Use a flight tray to corral jewelry, perfume, and everyday essentials. A coaster set doubles as a resting spot for your morning coffee or evening drink. A lamp base adds a soft, personal glow.

Entryway or Console Table
A tray near the front door is both practical and polished. Use it to hold keys, mail, and small everyday items. A lamp base adds a welcoming glow without taking up much space.

Dorm Room or Apartment
Small space, big personality. A coaster set and lamp base are affordable, compact, and instantly make a space feel curated rather than temporary.

How to Layer Pieces Together

The best-styled spaces use pieces that complement each other. Here are three easy pairings:

  • Tray + Coaster Set — the foundation of any styled surface. The tray anchors, the coasters add function and texture.
  • Lamp Base + Tray — add ambient lighting to any vignette without overhead fixtures.
  • Full Set — tray + coaster holder + coasters + lamp base + shot glasses for a complete, cohesive bar or coffee table display. Shop the Complete Deluxe Package →

Care & Longevity

  • Wipe clean with a soft damp cloth — avoid abrasive scrubbers
  • Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight to preserve color vibrancy
  • Avoid extreme heat exposure on tray and coaster surfaces
  • Designed for indoor use
