Contest by Cambria Cove

A couple of months ago, we introduced our readers to an amazing new purveyor of all different kinds of home goods, Cambria Cove.

We loved them so much from our very first catalogue that it didn’t seem possible that it could get any better. And then they started introducing their Summer entertaining products…sigh! Picnics, barbeques, and rooftop parties are amazing on their own, but if you had some of these amazing wares to use to serve your guests you’d be a rock star hostess guaranteed.

So imagine our excitement, when Cambria Cove offered to sponsor an unbelievable contest for a $100 gift certificate! Go to the CC website and check out their new Summer Entertaining Products. Pick out a few things that you would definitely like to add to your collection and tell us what you’d use it for. You have until the end of the day on June 30th to enter and then we’ll pick a winner at random. Good luck!

  6. My fiance, the gourmet of our household, loves to have "tasting parties". For example, we did an orange tasting one time where he had our guests sample 5 different varieties of oranges! He's done a bacon tasting for his guy friends. And recently he's been talking about doing a salt tasting. The Artisan Salt Company Set of 5 Salts w/ Tasting Dish would be perfect for his next dinner party idea!

  7. I'm getting married this summer and, instead of a large wedding cake, I am going to have a large cupcake cake (baking tin the shape of a cupcake but the size of a medium cake) and then lots of regular sized cupcakes. I would love to have the Mosser Glass Milk Glass Serving Pedestal - Small, Medium and Large, to hold the cupcakes for our event.

    ReplyDelete
  8. WOW! This was so easy! I would totally go after the Roase Ann Hall confetti Glasses. My neighbors and I have frequent gatherings and these would be PERFECT for margaritas, sangria or whateever the cocktail of the weekend is! It also goes so well with all of my primary colored linens !

    ReplyDelete
  9. Ooh I love the Rose Ann Hall sunflower pitcher and goblets. I'd use them for lemonade for my mommy friends at playdates, and for my white sangria after the babies go to bed!

    ReplyDelete
  10. The confetti glass pitcher would be adorable serving juice to houseguests or used as a vase to hold up dozens of sweet peas!

    ReplyDelete
  12. I LOVE the Maxwell and Williams Waffle Cone Sundae Glasses in white. I would buy the Knipschildt's Artisan Dessert Sauces to go with it and have an icecream party!

    ReplyDelete
  13. There is nothing better than freshly made ice cream on a hot summers night so I would pick the
    Deni Electric Ice Cream Maker. Hmm with my own creation of ginger orange ice cream.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I love the Rose Ann Hall Designs Confetti Glass Pitcher and matching Tumblers! They would be perfect for sweet tea! The waffle cone ice cream holders are also adorable and perfect for summer.

  15. The Timeless Timber Recovered Wood Cheese/cutting Board caught my eye,
    I'm a carpenter's daughter, that's the first reason why...

    But it's handsome, so handy and
    environmentally right,
    With cheese, grapes and apples I'd serve such delight!

  21. This summer entertaining collection has really brightened up my rainy day!
    I would love to have the Timeless Timber Recovered Wood Cheese/Cutting board. I'd definitely cover it with a variety of cheeses at my next get-together. It's such a beautiful piece, and I love that it's made from reclaimed wood.
    I'd also like to have the Rose Ann Hall Designs confetti glasses. They'd add some pizazz to evening cocktails or cheer up my daily refreshment--ice water with mint or lemon balm.

  72. My fiance and I just moved into our new apartment in DC from MN and after unpacking all of our boxes we realized we forgot to bring one of the kitchen boxes! We had no cups, plates, or any other serving items. Now that we are all settled we finally have plates, bowls and such but we are still using the mix matched (and ugly!) hand me down glasses from my co-workers.

    I would love to donate those old cups and WIN the gift card to buy the Rose Ann Hall Designs Sunflower Etched Goblets and Pitcher.

    It would be the perfect first wedding gift!!!

  81. I really love the recovered wood cheeseboard, which could be used in so many ways for casual but elegant summer entertaining--cheese, fresh fruit, desserts. Combine the cheese booard with one of the glass pedestals or the fiesta strip runner, and you have a casual summert party!
