Built to Last
Color: Black
When purchasing little practical and intentional pieces... it's easy to pick something of lesser value. Looking at all other styles and options, you see buttons and Velcro and magnets and they look enticing. But at the end of the day, you want the satisfaction of knowing you made the right choice. Pay a little extra and get what you want. This little tray will be in your possession for years to come. It's clean and sturdy and classy. Maybe a 2-tone color palette would be a nice option for future builds.

Light Weight CarryAll
Color: Brown
Being Retired I'm always home and throughout my day i settle in different spots in my house to do different tasks or activities like exercise. I found myself either carrying a bunch of small things from room to room or having to walk all the way back to my previous, I call "perch," to fetch my phone, reading glasses, stylus, pillbox, tumbler of tea, and yes, pen & paper! Now with this catch all, I just load it up in seconds and I'm good to go!!!
