Have you reached your dream of owning your own Bed and Breakfast accommodations? Perhaps you have always enjoyed entertaining, decorating, cooking and being with people. If that's the case, being a hostess to those who stay at your facility will more than likely be very rewarding. Of course, those who stay at your  Bed and Breakfast will enjoy staying at an attractive place. However, part of the fun for them will be eating good foods in a pretty setting. From selecting glasses and plates to choosing furnishings for your dining room, here are some ideas that might help you to design something your guests will never forget:

Variety Is The Spice Of Life - Consider having different serving pieces for different meals:

• For breakfast dining, think about buying glasses and dishes that go with a theme. For example, choose a country theme with plates that have farm animals as part of the design. Look for antique serving pieces that will complement the plates. Juice glasses in the form of short goblets will add a special touch.
• Many of your guests might be out sightseeing at lunch time. However, you will probably still want to have a light meal for those who stay behind. Consider having plates of different colors that remind you of a Mexican fiesta. Pair them with tall drinking glasses in which you can serve things like lemonade and your signature fruit punch.
• For dinner-time meals, think of going with something a bit more elegant. White dishes and tall goblets will add a feeling of formality.

Add Basic Pieces - A restaurant supply business will be a perfect place to shop for things like cookware and serving pieces:

• Think about selecting at least three warming trays. Even though they are of a professional grade, you can still find attractive styles that will go right on the serving table in your Bed and Breakfast dining room
• Look for unique pieces, too. For example, the same restaurant suppliers that provide your serving tray will also have things like muffin baking dishes that can go from the oven to the dining table. Choose a style that will go with your country dishes.
• Talk with the salespeople that supply your equipment. Because they are experts, they will often have suggestions of equipment you need that you haven't even considered.

As you select tableware and glasses, think of ways you can mix and match them. For example, the Fiesta dishes you used at lunch time might be perfect with the tall elegant goblets for a special Christmas setting.
