Plate

Serving food: If you want to dish up snacks and appetisers to your guests or serve full-blown main courses to a restaurant full of high-end clients, wooden plates will make the meal that much more special. Using wooden plates at a dinner party or even just for a Sunday roast at home can make it feel like a memorable experience.

Table centerpieces: Use wooden plates as the foundation or frame for table centerpieces. You can do a great deal with table centrepieces, there's even a whole guide we wrote specifically catering to how to scape your table and create centrepieces according to each season.

Plant trays/ saucers: Having wooden plates for plant saucers or trays underneath your plant pots might not immediately come to mind when you first get your wood plates. But, this can really make a plant look 'complete' when there's a lovely wooden plate underneath, almost mimicking the forest or jungle floor where your plant likely would live in the wild.

Jewelry storage: If you don't have a massive collection of jewelry to store (maybe you just like to remove your jewelry and watch at night time), a wooden plate makes a great storage tray for your beloved pieces, keeping them safe in one place.

Dessert serving: Pro tip - for serving up more colourful desserts and sweet treats, a darker wood like black walnut will contrast the vibrancy of the desserts without taking away from the beauty of them. Whereas something like acacia wood (depending on the specific piece of wood used for the plate) May be too 'busy' visually with the stripes and colour differences to truly do the colourful dessert justice.
