How to Choose the Right Glassware for Your Needs

1. The first step to choosing the right glassware for your needs is determining what you want to use it for. Do you need glassware for drinking, serving, baking, storing, or decorating? Or maybe you need glassware that can do all of the above? Depending on your answer, you’ll need different types of glassware, such as pitchers, tumblers, mugs, cake stands, cake domes, mixing bowls, butter dishes, salt and pepper shakers, soap dishes, and more.

2. The next step is to consider the size, shape, and capacity of the glassware. You want to choose glassware that is suitable for the amount and type of food or drink you want to serve or store. For example, if you want to serve a large cake, you will need a large cake stand and a large cake dome.

3. The final step is to choose the color and pattern of the glassware. This is where you can express your personal style, taste, and mood. You can choose glassware that matches your existing kitchenware or mix and match different colors and patterns to create a unique and eclectic look. You can also select glassware that suits the occasion, season, or theme if you’re buying for a specific reason or party.

One of the best brands of glassware that can meet all of your needs and preferences is Mosser Glass. The family-owned company has been making high-quality glassware in Ohio since 1971. They specialize in reproducing classic designs from the past, such as with their Mosser Glass cake domes, mixing bowls, cake stands, and more.

What’s more, their glassware comes in a variety of colors and patterns, such as amber, ruby, jade, thistle, and more, and is functional, making it an excellent investment.

Once you have chosen the proper glassware for your needs, you can start styling it for various occasions. Whether you’re hosting a formal dinner, a casual brunch, a birthday party, or a holiday celebration, you can use your glassware to create a stunning table setting, a charming buffet, or a cozy corner.

Here are some styling tips for using your glassware for various occasions:

For a formal dinner, you can use your Mosser glass cake stand and cake dome to display a decadent dessert, such as a chocolate cake, a cheesecake, or a fruit tart. You can also use your Mosser glass pitchers, tumblers, and mugs to serve drinks like water, wine, or coffee. You can coordinate the color and pattern of your glassware with your tablecloth, napkins, plates, and cutlery, or you can create a contrast by using different colors and patterns.

For a casual brunch, you can use your Mosser glass mixing bowls to serve salads, fruits, cereals, or yogurt. You can also use your Mosser glass butter dishes and salt and pepper shakers to add some flavor and flair to your table. You can mix and match different colors and patterns of your glassware to create a vibrant and eclectic look, or you can use the same color and pattern to create a harmonious and elegant look.

For a birthday party, you can use your Mosser glass cake stand and cake dome to display a fun and festive cake, such as a rainbow cake, a cupcake tower, or a donut cake. You can choose glassware that matches your party's theme and color scheme, or you can use glassware that adds some contrast and interest to your party.

For a holiday celebration, you can throw in a Karen Didion Santa and Mrs Claus next to a traditional and tasty dessert, such as a pumpkin pie, a gingerbread cake, or a fruitcake. Go one step further and select glassware that reflects the spirit and mood of the holiday, such as red and green for Christmas, orange and black for Halloween, or pastel and floral for Easter.
