5 Williams Sonoma Serveware Essentials I’m Treating Myself to This Holiday Season
Let’s be real: the holidays are all about gathering around the table with family and friends, and what better way to elevate those special moments than with a few timeless pieces of serveware? Every year, I love adding a new piece to my collection, and this year, I’ve got my eye on some gorgeous finds from Williams Sonoma. Not only do they make the table look fabulous, but they’re also totally functional for all the holiday hosting (or just impressing your guests when they come over for dinner).
Here’s what I’m treating myself to this season:
1. The Classic Gravy Boat
I don’t know about you, but in my house, gravy is practically its own food group during the holidays. I mean, everything tastes better with gravy, right? That’s why this beautiful, classic gravy boat is a must-have for me this year. It’s simple, elegant, and gives my sauce the attention it deserves. Plus, no more using random bowls or, worse, the pan itself. Your gravy deserves better!
2. Stainless-Steel Carving Set
Okay, full disclosure: I’ve spent more time than I’d like to admit watching carving tutorials before a big meal. But this year, I’m stepping up my game with a high-quality carving set. There’s something so satisfying about slicing up a turkey or roast with ease—and looking like a pro while doing it. Plus, this set is a total game-changer when it comes to presentation. If you’ve ever tried carving with a dull knife, you know the struggle. This set is all about precision, and I am here for it!
3. Woven Bread Basket
You know when you buy bread from the bakery or, let’s be honest, the grocery store, and it just looks… basic? Enter the woven bread basket. This charming piece makes even the simplest store-bought rolls look like they came straight from grandma’s kitchen. Plus, it adds that warm, cozy vibe to the table. I love how it blends function with style—definitely one of those small touches that makes a big difference.
4. Ceramic Serving Platter
Whether you’re serving up a turkey, a roast, or even a stunning cheese board, a large ceramic platter is essential for a holiday spread. This year, I’m opting for a simple, elegant design that lets the food shine while giving the whole table a polished, cohesive look. It’s one of those pieces that you can use year after year, and it instantly elevates whatever you’re serving. I love the idea of passing it down as a family piece one day, too!
5. Potato Ricer
I used to think mashed potatoes were simple—you just mash them, right? Wrong. Ever since I discovered the magic of a potato ricer, there’s no going back. This tool gives you the smoothest, fluffiest mashed potatoes, and let’s face it, mashed potatoes are basically the unsung hero of any holiday meal. This year, I’m treating myself to an upgrade with Williams Sonoma’s potato ricer, because if I’m going to eat half my weight in potatoes, they might as well be perfect!
Why I Invest in Serveware
Each year, I like to invest in one or two high-quality pieces that I know will last. Serveware doesn’t just have to be functional—it can also be a reflection of your personal style and make your hosting game that much stronger. I’m all about pieces that are not only beautiful but also versatile enough to use year-round. And let’s be honest, having serveware that you’re proud of just makes hosting a little more fun.
If you’re looking to elevate your holiday table this season, these pieces from Williams Sonoma are definitely worth checking out. I’ve already added them to my cart, and I can’t wait to see how they pull everything together for my holiday dinners this year!
