Build Your Holiday Buffet: Five Tips For The Perfect Spread.

Sleigh the Holiday Buffet.

‘Tis the season for merry mingling. So why not skip the sit-down dinner and go for a casual, holiday buffet? Here are five tips to get it right.

#1: Group dishes on one end of the table, placing smaller options in front so everything is visible.

#2: Give your setup some height with a tall arrangement of branches. (We love magnolia this time of year.)

#3: Add texture — and a touch of fancy — with vintage silver serving pieces and brass candlesticks.

#4: Make sure everything has a vessel. Glasses work great on trays, flatware in a vintage cup, and linens in a basket. 

#5: Designate your bestie as first-up at the buffet, so everyone feels comfortable digging in.
