Does anyone have any good deas for the Hospitality set? Especially those little Boats?

Also....if anyone does anything unique with the hospitality stand that would be great too!
 
I have the large rectangle on our bathroom sink (we have a double sink with some space between). It holds things like hairspray and cologne. In front of it I have the long skinny boat with things like pony tail bands, dental floss, etc... and two of the small boats are on the large rectangle with things like earrings and rings. Works great and takes much less space than the square tray I used to have there!

I use the hospitality stand in front of my kitchen sink with a medium bowl and 2 small bowls and have various things in it depending on the season and my mood/need. I also have a hospitality stand that I'm using everytime I have guests this time of year with the white large rectangle in it on top of a patriotic napkin placed sideways so there's a corner sticking out on each side. On top of the rectangle is the cranberry bowl from the entertaining set (red, white & blue - HA). I'm using it for dip and vegetables when people are over. (I've been having the Ice Cream Sandwich Torte in the Chillzanne Rectangular Server lately so I had to do something different for the veges!) ;)

Any time my mom has parties at her house, she uses the little rect. boats for crackers. The smaller, more expensive shaped crackers fit in there perfectly and look great!
 
Take the hospitality stand and the large boat and place 3 candles on it for a display on your table. Looks awesome with the entertaining set pieces.
 
Hi there! I love the Hospitality set and have found so many great uses for those little boats. One idea I have is to use them as individual serving dishes for dips, sauces, or condiments. They also work well for serving small appetizers or snacks like nuts or candies. As for the hospitality stand, I have seen some consultants use it as a mini charcuterie board by arranging meats, cheeses, and crackers on the tiers. Another idea is to use it as a dessert display for mini cupcakes or cookies. I hope these ideas help and I can't wait to see what other unique uses people have for the Hospitality set! Happy cooking!
