One of our closest friends has recently moved out and we headed to her place for the first time over the weekend. She's a great friend and I wanted to get her a little something to celebrate the exciting move. I've mentioned it before, but CB2 (Crate and Barrel's cheaper younger sister store) is such a great resource for affordable, designer housewares. It's my go-to for hostess/housewarming gifts and you can be sure it didn't disappoint this time 'round.
With the warm weather and summer entertaining around the corner, I wanted to pick something that she can use to host friends. The glasses don't photograph too great, but they're fun and festive with brightly colored, handpainted stripes. The pitcher is minimalistic and simple- highlighting whatever fun cocktail she chooses to serve. And the stir spoon will come in handy for stylishly mixing all the fancy beverages- making you look like a bona-fide bartender!
The gift was a big hit (we received an enthusiastic thank you email soon after leaving) and I'm sure it earned us an invite back for some cocktails when the warmer weather rolls in ;)
