Fill it with pasta, popcorn, or salad. But you need this.
2. Slates for cheese and charcuterie
Party instantly elevated.
May the conversation be deep and this dish shallow.
For your centerpiece and scattered florals needs. Snag 3-10 of each style.
Different than the ones you drop your lavender bath bomb in.
Staples to keep those hands dry and save greasy shrimp fingers.
Don’t be a square. At least when displaying your apps.
8. Charcuterie wooden display board
At this point…you can’t not have one at your party.
9. Ribbon for napkin ring (easier than napkin ring)
The DIY that instantly shows your effort. Don’t tell them how easy it was.
So your snacks can move when the party moves to the next room.
11. Water pitcher
May they all remain hydrated.
12. Ice bucket
So chill. Well, at least your drinks will be.
To complement the clear vases. To fill with blossoms of every season.
Fueling the fun one glass at a time.
15. Tiers
Levels, performed by Avicii, brought to you by Partytrick.
16. Tongs
Grab a lot. Like ten. Lighter than serving ware and easier to use.
Investing in staples for entertaining truly does pay off because you will use them over and over again. The amount of time you will save on hosting decisions will have these products more than paying for themselves. Did we express the disclaimer that hosting may be a tad addicting? No stress, you’re in good hands.
