Table Centerpiece

I'm the kind of person that always has to have something on the table. A picture frame, flowers, or a vase; anything really. I'm in that stage right now where I have no idea what to do as my centerpiece. Now when you look at this picture, you may wonder why I just don't use the flowers. Usually I'm more for a taller look to put some height to the table. 

Now this is my easy, go-to, in between stages of my table centerpieces.

It's simple, cute, and easy. It also makes a nice area for letters and papers because if I don't keep them in a stack they just end up all over the kitchen table. I found this tray at Target for $5.00! Which makes this even more perfect! It's so easy and it seems to be working out just fine as my table centerpiece.
