Holiday hosting essentials

To say this year was a whirlwind is an understatement! Between the wedding and now the house project…I’ve been a bit preoccupied. Not to mention, drilling is quite the writer’s block.

But today I wanted to share a few festive hosting items. Even if you can’t get these items in time for Christmas, they’re great to have on hand for next year or maybe you’re working toward building your own hosting collection. Plus - don’t forget about NYE!

Many of the seasonal items I love were gifted to me by my mom, actually. She’s sent me many a festive plate over the years (like the one used for my festive salsa dip!), and I use them over and over throughout the holiday season. If you saw my reel on Instagram, much of those items were found at local shops (making it hard to find links!). Small boutiques are often the best places to shop for seasonal knick-knacks.

I’m sharing some items I found that would work throughout winter, and especially great for New Years with a more wintry/neutral theme. These items also make for great gifts! You may even be able to find some for sale toward the season’s end and save for next year.

Happy hosting!
