BORROW. REUSE. ADD SOMETHING LOVELY.
The supply cupboard.
A useful collection of party and craft essentials, with room for what you already own.
The reusable hosting kit
The things you will reach for again and again.
- Plain plates that work with every theme
- A washable tablecloth and cloth napkins
- Two serving platters and serving utensils
- A water pitcher and reusable cups
Count what you own before buying. Borrow larger serving pieces for one-off gatherings.
Add supplies to my checklistThe making-things drawer
Simple materials with lots of possibilities.
- Cardstock and ordinary printer paper
- Washable markers and colored pencils
- Age-appropriate scissors and glue sticks
- Twine, ribbon and removable tape
Choose a small color palette for each celebration; the same supplies can make tags, cards and signs.
Add supplies to my checklistThe gift-wrapping corner
A calm little spot for thoughtful giving.
- Paper or reusable fabric wraps
- Gift tags and a good pen
- A labeled box for purchased gifts
- Ribbon saved from previous occasions
Record the hiding location in your gift tracker as soon as you put a gift away.
Add supplies to my checklistThe lovely little extras
Small details that work harder than they cost.
- Small jars for single-stem flowers
- Battery-operated table lights
- Clips for photos and place cards
- A basket for games or keepsakes
Shop your home first. A jar, a handwritten note and a single flower can be enough.
