Shea’s Holiday Kitchen Essentials
The best kitchen accessories from pots and pans to olive oil.
05 November 2021 -
We spend more time in our kitchen than ever during the holiday season…
and whether we’re hosting for two or ten, we always want to ensure we have the essentials on hand long before the celebrations begin.
This year, we’re making a mental checklist of everything we can gather to elevate the kitchen experience and prepare for everything from cooking our favorite meals and treats to entertaining friends and family.
Here are a few kitchen essentials for inspiring time well spent in the heart of the home:
Stovetop wonders
Cookware is an investment, but one worthy of making, especially before the holidays roll around. It’s truly the gift that keeps on giving (even if you’re gifting yourself).

Countertop accessories
The best part about countertop accessories in the kitchen? They can be functional and pretty, and in our opinion, there’s no reason they shouldn’t be both. We love displaying pretty cutting boards, utensil crocks, and salt cellars for easy access and added personality.
