Are You Buying Dinnerware For Your Bed And Breakfast Business?
Did your dream of owning your own bed and breakfast business finally come true? Perhaps you have a passion for entertaining and you wanted to put that passion to work, making money as you did so. You might be known in your circle of friends as "the hostess with the mostest." If so, you are probably very excited about using your skills and talents to welcome guests into your new bed and breakfast facility. From selecting the tableware you'll be using in your dining area to displaying your collection of cookware, here are some ideas that might help.
Select The Tableware: Think of the mood you want to set in your bed and breakfast dining area. Do you want a cozy, maybe even an old-fashioned feeling? If so, you probably want something like pottery dishes, maybe even old dishes that you can find in an antique store or at a resale shop. Remember that it's ok to mix and match your dishes, as that will give a bit of a shabby chic feeling to your cozy dining area. If you want an elegant mood, think of selecting fancy plates, maybe all white or off-white colors. No matter what kind of plates you select, you'll more than likely need to buy tumblers for water and things like ice tea, lemonade, and fruit punch. Choose shorter glasses for juice and wine glasses for times you'll be serving a special breakfast, maybe to celebrate the anniversary of your guests.
Displaying Your Cookware: Isn't part of the fun of having pretty tableware and cookware getting to show it off? Consider ways you can do that, yet getting to use the pieces when they are needed. For example, think of buying a very large hutch that has both a serving area and shelves as part of the design. Use the shelves to display things like pottery bowls, pitchers, and trays. Another idea is to hang things like copper pots and pans on a ceiling rack where they are in open view. While these pots and pans are probably not the ones you use all the time, they will still serve as decorations and you can always access them if you want to use them. Think of buying a small rolling tray table that can hold things like pottery or crystal pitchers along with some of the glasses or tumblers that will be used during the meal.
