I recently had the pleasure of helping a close friend plan a holiday party. She didn’t just want the usual and common decorations that most people put out when hosting a holiday dinner party. Since Moroccan decor is colorful and festive, I suggested to her that she do a ”Night in Marrakech” theme and she was delighted. I told her that her guests would have a great time, the party would be a big hit and her friends would be talking about it the day after.
While in our store, In Every Corner, I recommended colorful Moroccan tea glasses with a serving tray and a silver teapot, several cool looking lanterns to create that exotic ambiance, layers of colorful beaded runners in vibrant tones of reds, oranges, magentas, and to serve the party food, a couple of tagines. A tagine is a Moroccan cooking vessel in the shape of a dome. There are ones that are used only for cooking and then the ones for serving. I recommended she get a couple of serving tagines as they are very colorful and would complement the rest of the theme. She also got a hexagonal table unique to Moroccan design to place adjacent to her dining table to allow guests more room to place things on. I sketched for my friend a layout of how to decorate and where to place all the things she bought. I also gave her a couple of Moroccan recipes to try….I received a call from her the next morning and she was so elated! Everyone asked how she came up with the idea to do something out of the box and compliments were flowing all night. I’ll spare you all the details of what went on at the party, lol. The tagine dishes were a big hit too! 
Anyway, the point I’m making here is we all have it in us to stand out and express our creativeness. Try new things be it a new way to throw a party as described above or reinvent oneself especially in these times. Always stay relevant and insightful.

 Its hard to believe that Thanksgiving is upon us. This is the time of year when we start thinking of taking out our special serving dishes, trays and silverware. At In Every Corner, in addition to offering exquisite home furnishings, we also have in store beautiful ceramic platters and a variety of trays to place your favorite beverages on or to use when serving guests during the holiday season or anytime for that matter.
The month of December we’ll be featuring, “Embracing Joy Around The World”. Stop by and take a peek at some of the vignettes, or “corners” displaying how countries around the globe partake in their holidays and see the vibrant colors throughout the store. I know when I see festive colors everywhere it makes me happy and puts me in a very good mood:-))
This week, I will keep this short and sweet. We wish all of you and your loved ones a blessed Thanksgiving and by all means eat to your hearts content! You have my permission, lol!
As always, hugs to all and see you here next week……….D.
