5 Unique Gifts for People Who Like Entertaining
Entertaining is all about spending time with people you care about. It is about sharing good conversation, creating great memories, and getting to know people beyond superficial niceties and talking about the weather. Those who do it frequently know that entertaining can be enhanced with the right kinds of accessories. Indeed, those who entertain regularly tend to have lots of unique little things around the house that they pull out just for their guests.
If someone you know loves to entertain, here are five unique gifts that are perfect for any kind of giving:
1.Bamboo Pineapple Cutting Board
When entertaining, a cutting board also serves as an excellent serving tray for cheeses, fruits, vegetables, breads, and cold cuts. Ambiente Cucina offers a great cutting board set consisting of two boards shaped like pineapples. These bamboo boards make the perfect cutting surface that withstands more punishment than wood, yet are light at the same time. The pineapple shape is whimsical enough that guests will love them as serving trays – even if your theme is not entirely tropical.
2. Professional Grade Mixology Set
Serving mixed drinks at a party is one thing; serving them from a professional grade mixology set is something entirely different. There are lots of different sets to choose from, including stainless steel sets complete with cocktail shakers, stirrers, corkscrews, and all the most popular bartender tools. The only thing lacking is the practice needed to make the host of the party look like a pro!
Wine aeration is not something a lot of people know about, but they certainly remember it once they taste a wine that has been properly aerated. A filtered wine aerator is one of the best gifts for the new entertainer just beginning to understand how to serve fine wine. Aeration allows the wine to breathe while the filter removes any small particulates that might be in the bottle.
A slate lazy Susan cheese and bread board is one of the more unique gifts for entertainers. Strategically place cheeses, crackers, and other items on the board, then use chalk to label each one. Your guest will always know their choices without having to ask. When one selection is completely gone, no worries. Just replace it with a new selection and relabel the slate with chalk!
We don’t talk much about the bathroom in the arena of home entertaining, but the reality is that guests do need to use the facilities. So why not carry your entertainment theme into the bathroom as well? You can with a selection of wine-scented soaps found on Amazon. Soaps scented with wines and essential oils not only clean and moisturize the skin but they also add a bit of fragrance that your guests will appreciate. They will also remember your home long after the party is over.
