1). A charcuterie board is always a good idea! If you don't want to make it yourself, check out some of your local cheese shops or specialty stores. It's so important to shop small, and the quality of ingredients will likely be excellent. We'll get ours from the Cherry Street Cheese Shop.

2). We desperately need some battery operated lamps for our dining room table. Our dining room is a bit funny, and the lighting is low/problematic. This charming lamp is from a British company called Pooky that's finally available in the states. 

3). I think these glasses would look beautiful on our midcentury dining room table. I love the color and pattern.

4). Have you heard of X-cetra? It's a group of Y2k girls who decided to make an album at what sounds like a sleepover. It's fun, good, and nostalgic. The vinyl album could be a great hostess gift, could also be fun to throw on during after dinner drinks. We recommend a wild card thrown in the mix when hosting.

5). A very chic lighter. The devil is in the details, and this lighter is beautiful enough to leave out even after candles have been lit. 

6). I adore these modular cutting boards made by my friend Andrea and her company Tortuga Forma. She's also a small business! Please go look at her wonderful shop.

7). We have a few of our limited edition Janie Korn taper candles left! 

8). This pencil advent calendar is a hot ticket item. Perfect for the writer, kid, artist in your life.
