Mid-Century Style Bärbar Tray from Ikea

Barbar-tray__0097583_PE238293_S4 For all their ubiquitous furniture, Ikea continuously come up with new home accessories which have a stylish quality that belies their Swedish-superstore origins. One such item is this Bärbar Tray.

Square and white, it's adorned with a colourful bird pattern which has a definite mid-century flavour. It's practical yet quirky and best of all it's a bit of a bargain at just £5.29.

The tray measures 33cm x 33cm. You'll need to visit a store to pick one up but you can check for stock online here.
