Memorable Events
Small Details for Making an Event Special
Ideas for making occasions memorable abound. It takes very little
extra to make an ordinary event special. Always follow the
philosophy of KISS (keep it simple stupid), You can entertain with
flair without killing yourself. Make ahead menus reduce stress and allow
the hostess time to enjoy the guests.
Flea market finds furnish wonderful pieces of crystal, china, and
decorative pieces to use when entertaining. A set of green sherbets
scream St. Patrick's Day. Red goblets can be used for Christmas, Valentine
and the Fourth of July. Never pass up a neat inexpensive vintage
specialty item. Regardless of the holiday you can always find cookie cutters and make a
cookie bouquet.
Pick up some bonbons and use for a formal dinner. The ones pictured
are Old Foley, James Kent Company, Staffordshire, England.
A recent flea market find is the candy filled epergne nappy pictured at
right.
