8 Guest Welcome Tray Tips For Christmas

I blogged about creating a truly welcoming guest room in this post; but I thought I’d do a more in-depth post on a Christmas snack station here today. So how do you give your hospitality area a Christmas vibe?

Cups and crockery

One of the easiest ways to give this area some holiday spirit is to add festive mugs or cups as well as other crockery.

Kettle

This isn’t holiday specific, but a small kettle is great to ensure your guests can have a warm drink when they want without feeling the need to disturb the whole house.

Add some chocolate along with other beverages

Along with teas and coffees include some hot chocolate sachets for your visitors. It’s synonymous with Christmas after all. I also include cappuccino sachets, regular instant coffee and a selection box of teas too.

As a norm I have a bottle of water, a small one of sterilised milk, some sugar and sweet and low along with them.

Christmas cookies

If you’ve been doing lots of baking why not present some of your Christmas cookies to your guests?

I include little snacks throughout the year; breakfast bars and savory snacks. Sometimes people can be peckish, or want to indulge themselves on holiday.

Coasters

I mentioned crockery, but coasters can be updated for ones that reflect the season.

A decoration

Like this Christmas bauble.

Christmas chocolates

Adding a chocolate Santa can be a decoration itself.

Candy canes

Pop some in your mugs to make them a little more merry.

Hi, I'm a SAHM who's moved to France with my husband and two daughters. My blog focuses on our family life & decorating our 18th century village house here. I'm scouring brocantes to find furniture to revive as well as little special somethings for our home. I love DIY and craft - sewing, painting, whatever. If any of these things interest you I'd love for you to stay and wander through the site - especially if you want to tell me what you think! God bless, Andrea
