The holidays are a time for family and friends to come together. To maximize your time spent with loved ones, keep things simple! If you are hosting, use these five quick tips to ensure you and your guests have a meaningful and memorable season.

1. Keep things simple. Set the table with stain-resistant or easy care linens. This will allow for less mess, and quicker clean up, especially if you are hosting several meals in a short time.

2. Let guests help themselves. When you have visitors from out of town, keep snacks easily available. Put a bowl of fresh apples on your table, or add a candy dish to your counter for those with a sweet tooth.

3. Cater to the kids. If you are expecting little ones to join in the festivities, have some durable tableware handy that won’t require constant supervision. Try glamorous silhouettes and jewel tones to make drinkware feel all grown up.

4. Add a soft scent. Keep closets and drawers in the guest room fresh for visitors with a light, natural scent.  From inviting rose to woodsy cedar, sachets will ensure a low-maintenance source of fragrance that will last all season.

5. Stay toasty. Make sure your guests feel a warm welcome by having throws  ready in every room.
