With all of the people to see and events to attend over the holiday, the last thing I want to do is add another night to the calendar that forces me to be outside of my comfort zone. This means if I want to see those special people that are close to me, I always try and host a little something in our home. Home is cozy, comfortable and familiar. To me, that is the perfect place to entertain.

I love flowers, but think outside of the box! We picked up a few wreaths and tucked in fresh flowers from the arrangements to create a backdrop while adding color at the same time.

The Cheese Plate

I added 4 different cheeses, grapes, cucumbers, olives, tomatoes, walnuts, salami and a selection of crackers. People. Will. Hover.

Add a little Ambiance

I always wait until I am completely done setting up, then tuck these in to finish it off.

Don't forget about seating
