Special Touches For Holiday Entertaining

If you’re like me, you’re still trying to figure out what decorations to put up. Right now, the only thing I’m sure about is the tree. Here are some great ideas from RedEnvelope and ProFlowers for any holiday entertaining you plan on doing this year and years to come.

HandPrint Stocking (Red Envelope)

Give each member of the family a holiday keepsake they can make uniquely their own. Our padded red canvas stocking comes with white non-toxic acrylic paint, so they can decorate it with handprints, snowflakes or whatever they please. It’s generously sized and topstitched all around to hold lots of goodies. The soft, white cuff can be personalized with up to 10 characters in red thread. 8 1/2″ x 19 1/2″L. Exclusively from RedEnvelope.

Snowflake Votive Holders (Red Envelope)

These silvery holders shine by candlelight and cast a flurry of festive, snowflake-shaped shadows across the table. Crafted of iron, with a polished nickel-plated finish, each comes with a votive candle in a glass cup. Set of two. Exclusively from RedEnvelope.

Vintiri Wine Aerator (Red Envelope)

Wine connoisseurs know that allowing a vintage to “breathe” brings out its rich aromas and subtle flavors while creating a smoother finish. The Vinturi Wine Aerator achieves the ideal mix of wine and oxygen with each pour, for perfectly aerated wine with no decanting and no waiting. Simply hold the aerator over the glass, and pour the wine through it. Separate models for red and white wine ensure optimal aeration for every bottle. Wonderful for picnics, wine tasting and impromptu entertaining, each aerator comes with a machine-washable travel pouch and convenient stand to store in between uses.

Cubist Chips & Dip Set (Red Envelope)

The secret to effortless entertaining is choosing serving pieces that are as functional as they are stylish–pieces like our modern, modular serving set. Place the two smaller dishes in the larger dish atop crushed ice to keep dips and salsas fresh. Or use all three glass dishes and the espresso-finish wood tray separately for chips, pretzels and other nibbles. Exclusively from RedEnvelope.

Fire Starter Kit (Red Envelope)

Keep the home fires burning, and smelling sweet and spicy. Our antique-finished carrier contains red and green cinnamon-scented starter cones, a bundle of fatwood, and small pinecones. Exclusively from RedEnvelope.

Santa’s Workshop (Pro Flowers)

The Proflowers elves have been hard at work! This wonderfully fragrant tree is a true testament that good things do come in little packages. Our miniature Cypress tree arrives fresh and ready-to-decorate. Decorating kit includes 12 mini-ornaments and a set of colorful electric lights to help brighten your holiday.

Boxwood Wreath (Pro Flowers)

Luscious and simply beautiful, our Classic Boxwood Holiday Wreath is hand-made and manicured to perfection. Complete with a merry satin ribbon and metal door hanger.
