Verdict

Happy new year! This is one of those fun accessories that focus on what we'd like to see as a major theme in 2011 for homes: hospitality. Invite neighbors, friends, and family over for drinks and simple plates of food. Focus on conversation and catching up. Share warmth and good times with all.

We like this steamer trunk tricked out to serve your crowd! It's a simple design, we love the transparency of lucite so all your inner bar workings are revealed, and it's an easy-to-clean piece. Use it as a hospitality station during parties, and when it's not in use, it's a coffee or side table. Not into entertaining? Turn it into craft or home office storage. It's a very versatile piece.
