Getting Your Small Space Ready for the Holidays

Whether you’re hosting a large holiday dinner, a festive cocktail party or a casual brunch, the key to getting the most out of your space this summer is with a flexible mindset.  Use these tips to get inspired for this year’s summer activities and to plan ahead for the Christmas period:

Rearrange

Rearrange your furniture to limit crowding and ensure there’s enough space to make you and your guests comfortable. A sofa with a sturdy structure and movable backrests is perfect for a number of guests at one time. Have fun decorating your space for the holidays, but make sure there is enough room on counters, shelves, and side tables for your company to place plates of food and drinks. Think of unique solutions to maximize your space by having items serve double-duty on the day of your gathering. Try clearing off a shelf on a bookcase to create a temporary bar or snack station.

Making mealtime easy

Consider using a transforming table that can be extended to full size at mealtime to seat everyone while they eat, but can be tucked away or used for a different purpose when not in use. If you can look past the formalities of a sit-down meal, putting out a number of small plates around the room or having guests grab food buffet-style from the kitchen is a fun and social alternative to crowding around a table.
