Holiday Entertaining Inspiration from World Market #WorldMarket_BF

Each year, as we edge closer and closer to the holiday season, I begin mapping out on the calendar what kinds of holiday gathering we will host for our family and friends.

I love decorating for the holidays! Not just the regular tree-trimming and stringing of the lights, but all of the decorating - right down to taking out my Christmas china, my Christmas cookie jars and teapots, table clothes and napkins. When I am done decorating, it looks like Christmas exploded all over my home, even my kitchen!

This year, I browsed online at World Market to get ideas for new Christmas place settings and kitchen decor. World Market has so many options, I found everything from holiday gifts and stocking stuffers to holiday decor and supplies for holiday parties! World Market truly is the perfect place to find it all this holiday season!

These are some of my favorite finds from my little online window shopping!

1. Nutcracker Platter, $19.99 2. Wood Nutcracker Napkin Rings, set of 4 $9.99 3. Eskimo Take Out Boxes, set of 6 $17.94 4. Nutcracker Teapots, set of 2 $49.98 5. Melamine Christmas Sweets Plates, set of 4 $7.96 6. Yultide Plates, set of 4 $24.99 7. Glass Nutcracker Tumblers, set of 4 $15.96

I love creating a warm, inviting and cheerful kitchen and dining room when I invite guests over for holiday parties and these pieces would be perfect for getting us all in the Christmas spirit!

To help YOU get into the holiday spirit, I wanted to share some of the incredible promotions going on at World Market right now!

The Life of Pi Sweepstakes's grand prize package includes a dream trip for 2 to India and a $1,000 World Market Gift card! There will also be 3 runner up prize winners that will each receive a $500 World Market gift card, which I think is also exciting! I could redecorate an entire room with a $500 gift card to World Market!!

You can enter the Life of Pi Sweepstakes at World Market Sweepstakes or on World Market's Facebook page now through 12/28.

The Life of Pi Sweepstakes is centered around the Life of Pi movie, of course! Life of Pi is the story of an Indian boy named Pi, a zookeeper’s son, who survives a disaster at sea and is thrown into an epic journey. While adrift in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, he forms an amazing and unexpected connection with a Bengal tiger.

The Life of Pi opens in theaters tomorrow, November 21, 2012!
