A house filled with laughter, chatter and kids playing is a happy house. I enjoy entertaining and I always feel like there just aren’t enough days in the year to get together with our friends and family. When I have people over my hostess gene goes into overdrive and I am always bustling about preparing food and setting a place for my guests. I like my home to be clean, my kitchen to be filled with tantalizing scents and the playroom to be filled with happy kids playing together. Of course this is all in an ideal world. Nothing always goes according to plan. One thing I can count on though is having beautiful serving pieces to present my food in. One site I love for gorgeous tableware is Novica.
Not only does Novica offer beautiful handmade creations from artisans all over the world, but they also offer artisan loans to artists in countries all over the globe so that they can make their dream a reality. Whether you are looking for womens shawls from Peru, mens silver cufflinks from Indonesia or womens accessories from Mexico, they have it! They pack it beautifully and ship it to you. I just ordered a beautiful blown glass pitcher by Javier and Efren from Mexico. I already own their gorgeous matching glasses so I really had my eye on the pitcher to complete my set.
It was just as gorgeous in person as it is on the website and it matched my glasses perfectly!
It is the perfect addition to my set of serving pieces. When I have people over this pitcher and glasses set always elicits compliments from my guests.
Head over to Novica.com to check out all of the artisan creations that they have to offer. Novica has offered one lucky reader a $50 Gift Card to their site! Enter my Rafflecopter giveaway below for your chance to win!
