Tis the season for hosting parties, but ours tips apply no matter the time of year. The over arching tip is ~ keep it simple, stay relaxed and enjoy! If you do those 3 things your guests will have a wonderful time no matter what.

We have plenty of other specific tips from what to serve, the decor & a fun game.

Have a easy to prepare signature cocktail or mocktail on a tray at the door for guest to pick up as they enter.

If it is mingling party create a huge WOW centerpiece. Have a look at the January tutorial in Kelly's book for inspiration. She uses chain in a way you probably never thought of... Click HERE.

As we said, hosting is more about attitude than anything else. With the right mind frame you can serve it up on paper plates and believe us no one will blink. Try these paperplates for the holidays HERE.

Not enough champagne flutes on hand, get a set or two of these one piece plastic flutes HERE. Because every party is better with bubbles!

Speaking of La Marca is the Bespoke Proseco of choice. See it HERE. We hear they even sell it at Costco.

Our sheet music pockets are terrific to hold utensils for a buffet style party. Slip in gold plastic fork, knife & spoon. See our Sheet Music Pockets HERE and plastic gold flatware HERE.
