Holiday entertaining essentials can fit inside a 1 cubic-foot box. Let’s talk. 

The space dilemma can be extremely frustrating when entertaining family and friends during the holidays.

Is your extended family growing and your house is still the same size? Yeah, we have that challenge, too.

We’ve invited Kim Lewis, the powerfully creative lead designer behind more than 120 homes for Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, and is the designer for FYI’s ‘Tiny House Nation.’

When The Washington Post asked Kim how to max storage in a small space, Kim answered:

“Storage can come in all shapes and sizes. I say let’s get creative with your furniture. You can use things like vintage suitcases stacked as your side tables…Each suitcase is a storage space. Storage ottomans work well as a linen closet! For food storage, I suggest a butcher cart in the kitchen, with bins below — I have a tiny kitchen, and this is what I do! Also acts as a great island when you’re prepping food. For outdoor gear, I have suspended a wood pallet from the ceiling with eye hooks.”

Theresa challenged Kim’s holiday entertaining creativity with a 1-cubic-foot box challenge. What would you pack in a 1-cubic foot box that are your holiday entertaining essentials?
