The holidays can brim with get-togethers, that you may find yourself hosting! But if you're new to the idea of hosting a holiday party, don't stress; style expert Alicia Richmond stopped by with a great idea for a memorable - and easy - entertaining experience.
She suggested doing a hot chocolate and cookie exchange party. She said to find festive mugs and plates, and set out bowls of hot chocolate accouterments such as crushed Andes mints or marshmallows. She says you can simplify baking by using a cookie mix, and picking up a cookie sheet that comes with the cookie cutters! She recommended providing holiday-themed aprons for partygoers, that they could take home with them. And the best part? You can get all of these things at Macy's department store, so you're not going to be running from store to store!
