A simple sofa tray table can be made by attaching a tray to a piece of timber or a small chopping board with strong glue, allowing it to dry, and slotting it between sofa cushions for a stable surface. A tray with raised edges keeps beverages, snacks, and crafting supplies in place and reduces spills. Affordable trays and cutting boards are available from retailers such as Target, HomeGoods, Amazon, Wayfair, and Woolworths; a $13 tray can be effective. Experimentation with tray size, shape, and material helps accommodate different sofas and uses. Higher-sided wooden trays provide extra surface area and stability.
"Did you know that if you grab a tray and a piece of timber or a small chopping board, turn the tray over [and] take some glue along the long edge of the wood, then press that onto the underside of the tray, allow to dry, and then slot it between your sofa cushions, you will have the cutest and most functional sofa tray, perfect for tea, snacks, and crafts?"
She wrote in her caption that she used a $13 tray from Target and a chopping board from Woolworths in Australia to create her sofa table, but you can just as easily find similar trays and cutting boards from HomeGoods, Amazon, or Wayfair. "I know it's very small and the easiest project ever but I love it so much!" Geneva continued in the caption. "You can also literally use any cute tray that you have!"
It's best to use a tray with raised edges to keep your beverages, snacks, or crafting supplies in place, but feel free to experiment with size, shape, and material. This large wooden tray from Wayfair, for example, would be great for this project because of its higher sides and large surface area.
