The holiday season is upon us, and it's time to open your doors and fill your home with friends and family. Whether you are planning a dinner party or a weekend filled with out-of-town guests, the key to holiday hosting lies in thoughtful details that make your home feel warm and inviting.
To help you prepare, we have curated a few of our favorite collections to help you refresh your home from top to bottom:
Cheers to Holiday Hosting
Refresh your bar with pieces that feel celebratory. Start the evening or holiday festivities with a glass of our Sparking Sangria Mixer flavored with strawberry, tangerine, and peach. Its shimmering glitter, made from natural mineral mica, adds a festive sparkle to every pour. Serve as a vibrant mocktail or mix it with wine, rum or vodka for a cocktail that feels as joyful as the season itself.
Our Orange Cherry Sugar Cubes are a fun addition to a holiday cocktail. You can create an instant old-fashioned with whiskey, or they are delicious in tea or mulled wine.
Elevate your entertaining with our Graham Bar Set. Each piece is beautifully designed to bring a sense of luxury to every cocktail you create. The set includes a stand and five tools, including a double-sided jigger, cocktail strainer, bar spoon, bottle opener, and muddler.
No bar is complete without a fun set of Santa Coasters to use during the holidays. Reusable and absorbent, these coasters will last all season long and bring a smile while soaking up the drips from your festive cocktails.
Deck the Halls
Thoughtful decorations add a sense of comfort and nostalgia, transforming everyday spaces into places that feel festive and full of joy. Here are a few of our favorite decorations that will bring elegance, warmth, and seasonal charm into your home during the holidays:
Our Acrylic Nativity Set brings a modern touch to a traditional holiday decoration, offering a beautiful way to honor the season. Unlike more ornate styles, this set blends seamlessly with any decor from classic to contemporary, making it a timeless piece you will enjoy displaying year after year. We offer this set in 2 different sizes.

Our Vintage Gold Bells bring a charming, nostalgic touch to your holiday decor, evoking the warmth and tradition of seasons past. Whether hung on your tree or styled on a wreath, these bells create a welcoming, old-world feel that instantly enriches your holiday home.
Our Gold Reindeer Tray adds a touch of luxury and seasonal charm to your holiday home. With its majestic reindeer design and gold metallic finish, this tray is as beautiful as it is functional. Use it to serve festive cocktails, display candles, or create a stunning centerpiece on your coffee table or bar.
A large Devon Willow Sleigh adds a storybook charm to your holiday decor. Its generous size 26.5" x 15.5" x 13.5" and natural woven texture make it a standout piece that is perfect for displaying greenery, wrapped gifts, ornaments, or cozy blankets. Whether placed by the tree, styled by the fireplace, or placed on a table, it brings a winter-inspired touch to your home that can be enjoyed well past the holiday season.
Holiday Ready Bathrooms
Your guest bathroom is one of the most often overlooked and most appreciated spaces to refresh before hosting. Stock it with plush hand towels, beautifully scented soaps, and a softly glowing candle. Following are a few of our favorites:
Our Paume Exfoliating Hand Soap is a small luxury that makes a meaningful difference in your guests' experience. Made with biodegradable microbeads and a signature blend of 5 essential oils, it gently exfoliates your skin while leaving you with a woodsy, citrus, and herbaceous scent.
An Acrylic Tray with Guest Towels brings a clean, modern elegance to your guest or powder bathroom, instantly elevating your holiday hosting. The clear, minimalist design of the tray keeps the look polished while allowing your beautifully folded guest towels to stand out. This pairing adds a touch of boutique-hotel luxury to your home.
Our Amelie Pomegranate Pine Candle brings an inviting seasonal touch to the bathroom, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere for guests. This simple addition instantly refreshes the room, making it feel thoughtfully prepared and holiday-ready.
Holiday Comfort
Give your guests a space that feels like a boutique stay. Start with crisp, fresh bedding and layer in cozy throws and accent pillows for warmth. A bedside carafe, a book for light reading, and a small tray for personal belongings bring both function and charm. Little luxuries like these help your guests feel taken care of and make you look like a seasoned host.
Our Normandy Rectangle Serving Tray is a simple yet thoughtful addition to the guest room. It is perfect for arranging bedside essentials while offering guests a dedicated space for their belongings.
The Spear Carafe Set offers both beauty and thoughtful convenience. Its hand-blown and hand-engraved design elevates the bedside table while the matching glass provides your guests with easy access to fresh water. Simple, elegant, and timeless, it's a small gesture that makes your guests feel taken care of.
Ina Garten's Memoir is perfect bedside table reading material for your guests. Filled with heartfelt stories, inspiration, and Ina’s signature charm, it invites readers to unwind and enjoy a moment of calm while they are away from home.
Our Village House Vase on the bedside table brings a warm, welcoming touch to the guest room. Filled with stems of greenery or seasonal blooms, it instantly brightens the space and makes your guests feel treasured.
Gather and Play
When you are hosting people in your home, it's always fun to have games available for play. Between meals and festivities, offer guests a chance to unwind with beautifully crafted board games, puzzles, or a round of mah jongg.
Our La Redonda Deck of Cards invites your guests to relax, connect, and share a little friendly competition. Beautifully designed and easy to keep on hand, the card deck is perfect for game nights, cocktail hours, or cozy nights around the coffee table.
