As we prepare to host family and friends to a holiday dinner, we often think about the regular items like food, drinks and decorations. We may break out our good china or fancy paper plates for a memorable holiday meal. There are other items that could add that special touch to your entertainment or even allow you to relax and enjoy the day with your loved ones. We share a few of those items here:
- Extra Serving Utensils: The guest who brings a dish means well, but may forget to bring a serving utensil. No problem as you reach for the special apparatus that’s been waiting for an opportunity to be useful. Having extra serving utensils on standby reduces the stress of trying to find one at the last minute. Stainless steel is recommended, as plastic tends to break with frequent use.
- Eco-Friendly Palm Leaf Trays: Care for the planet and entertain in style with this durable, eco-friendly, freezer safe, organic, and sustainable food tray.
- To-Go Containers: You could always use paper plates covered with foil, but your guests would appreciate the thoughtfulness of takeout containers. This is especially true when it’s time to pack those leftover collard or turnip greens dripping with juice. Guests can reuse and recycle the containers, reducing waste.
- Compostable Oval Plates: If disposable plates are your thing, then you may want to try using oval plates. They contain more food than your regular 10-inch dinner plates with adequate room for a turkey leg.
- Outdoor Pillows: When the weather is nice, you and your guests could enjoy spending time in the beautiful outdoors. Outdoor pillows create a warm and inviting space that’s ideal for entertainment. You want to get the right pillows that are weather and water resistant. Watch demo video
