100% HANDMADE FROM VIETNAM

I know I'm always saying "this is the perfect hostess gift", but these lacquer trays actually go beyond that. Each piece of metallic flake is hand placed within each of these beautifully crafted trays. Then they are finished with 20 layers of lacquer to give them a shine, luster and look of quality that is pretty much as special as it gets. These trays are manufactured in Vietnam and carefully watched over by a very dear friend of mine, who is a very hard working mom. Her company is called J. Fleet Designs. This is one brave women that can run a family of 3 boys, travel like she does and still deliver a flawless product each and every day. These trays are very hard to keep in the store due to their popularity and how inviting they are to touch and hold. Prices range from $88 for a 17 X 7 rectangular cocktail tray on upwards of $198 for the 21 X 15 serving tray. These pieces are signed and timeless.

NESTING BOWLS

Seriously, when do you get to use the words practical, useful, versatile, beautiful and most awesome hostess gift and apply them all to ONE set of bowls.  These flower shaped nesting bowls from Tag are my most favorite thing in the store right now.  They store away easily when not in use, and then when company comes a calling they march themselves out in full force to handle all your buffet has to offer.

My suggestion is to buy a set for yourself as well as a set for those new neighbors down the street that you haven't met yet.  Despite anyones decor these bowls will fit right in.  I already snagged a set for myself.
