"I love wreaths in all the windows! It’s really fun to have festive Christmas plates, glasses and mugs that you can use every day. It makes all the meals feel special!

Serve a festive cocktail that you can batch out to make hosting easy. We love our Pomegranate Cosmo or Hot Toddy! To make the Cosmo in advance, just multiply each ingredient by the number of cocktails you want to make, and add an ounce of water for each cocktail. Then chill really well and pull out just before guests arrive. For the Toddies, have them simmering on the stovetop while you trim the tree and decorate for the holidays.
