Tapas Plates for Must Have Monday

by Kristen Banker on November 2, 2009 in Must Have Monday

Struggling with a sagging napkin of appetizers as you mingle with your wine?  These plates make it a cinch to have your wine and eat your hors d’oeuvres too! No more precarious balancing acts.

Tapa means ‘cover’ in Spanish, and it is said that the original tapas were slices of bread or meat placed as a cover on top of a drink (wine or sherry) in order to protect it from fruit flies.

Acacia is an eco-friendly, non-endangered species and is not harvested from rain forests.  Known for its unusual property known as ‘chatoyancy’, it appears to change color and luster under different lighting, as if to shimmer. Your guests will marvel when you set these out at your next dinner party.  Bring a set as a hostess gift and your host is sure to ooh and ahh. Set of four plates $19.50 at Unbeatable Sale.

For a funky twist, pick up a pair of these rockin’ Sea Stone Wine Glasses from Uncommongoods. These will really get your guest’s talking! Set of two glasses $58.00 at Uncommongoods.
