It’s your first Christmas together in your new home and what better way to celebrate it this year by inviting your family over and hosting the Noche Buena? It’s time to put your culinary and hosting skills to work and we are here with Crate and Barrel to give you helpful tips every step of the way.
1.Pick out minimalist Christmas décor that won’t take up too much space but would surely still give you the holiday feels, just like these Cypress Trees and decorative Christmas-scented candles!
2. The first thing you might want to consider as you’re putting your home together is to pick out functional furniture that could provide extended space when you invite people over and stay compact on all the other days.
3. Go on Pinterest to find the perfect holiday theme for the first thing your guests get excited about–the grazing table. Get experimental and mix and match different shapes, colors, and textures of serving boards that would make the simple cheese and cold cuts platter look extra special.
4. Bring out your best dinnerware! When you pick out dinnerware, don’t forget to have fun with it by getting pieces that could be mixed and matched across different themes. You’ll be surprised at all the pretty combinations you can come up with!
5. Having a bar cart nearby where your loved ones can make their own favorite cocktails will surely keep the party going until Christmas Day.
From our family to yours, we wish you happy holidays and blessings to your new home. May it be filled with love, happiness, and warmth!
