To help master these duties, we've put together some must have tips on how to turn your cooking area into an effortless favorite gathering place for family & friends.
Baking Center
‘Tis the season where calories don’t count! We all know that no holiday party is complete without any fresh baked treat. Having a designated bake station promotes efficient baking. Fun fact: Our drawers promote 100% visibility and accessibility.
Spacious Countertop
Having a spacious countertop is pivotal in creating a functional kitchen. Not only is it a blank canvas for you to work on, but it can elevate your kitchen aesthetic while optimizing your space for seating. A great option for lasting, and aesthetically pleasing countertops is quartz!
Convenient Storage
Clutter can be the silent killer for perfect parties. Creating functional storage options will allow you to conveniently tuck away your kitchen tools, and can also be used to display them when not in use! A large drawer is a great example of functional storage that is still beautiful!
Functional Kitchen Accessories
Although often overlooked, functional kitchen accessories can be a game changer. These aesthetic and functional kitchen add on’s or swap out’s can take your hosting experience from 0 to 100 in no time! Explore some options, here.
