From seudah set-up…to ready-made mishloach manos…to the package that will just work. Here’s our picks for your Purim
Make the Party Pop
You need just the thing (a goblet? A charger?) to add that special look to your table…or the wow centerpiece to make the room look like it’s shining…or great trays to boost your buffet…and no, you don’t need to buy it, toivel it, or store it. Because you can rent it! Flair Event Rentals has the most gorgeous collection of anything you’d need when entertaining. Browse their selection @flair.event.rentals. Mention between carpools to get free delivery on all local orders (in Lakewood, NJ). To order, email info@flaireventrentals.com or call 732.835.7674.
Don’t love using plastic for your seudah, but let’s get real…you don’t know how you’d manage otherwise. This line of plasticware by Occasions is a step above. Go formal with the Chateau style (click here for 25 guests or here for greater bulk). There’s tons of styles to choose from. We’re a fan of these silver/white silverware if you have a modern table, or these are amazing for a traditional look.
Wish you could afford these gorgeous chargers to dress up your Purim (or Pesach!) table? Guess what…now you can.

We love the containers we featured last year in this post. They’re so practical for gifting real food and keeping them separate for freshness. Plus, the cube style is cute and sleek.
These acrylic trays with metallic handles are usually the kind of find we like to keep secret. But you know we don’t keep anything secret…because we share everything! They’re even more gorgeous in person and the perfect item to fill up for the people with whom you want to gift something special with your mishloach manos.
There’s lots of junk around, but your mishloach manos recipient might be hungry for lunch! This wrap box makes it easy to deliver. Want to gift a great salad? This bowl is the perfect container. This one is even nicer, but comes in a large quantity, so you may need to share with a friend. How about soup? We have a container for that too. For other takeout-style foods, this one works well.
Cupcake boxes make a nice, neat, giftable package. This sliding box, also in black, is super sleek as well.
Aren’t these cute bags? Use your imagination to fill ‘em up.
For the Kiddos
Did you know that there are lots of inexpensive personalized items you can use for your kid’s mishloach manos? Froma tote bag or drawstring backpack, to pencils, to a deck of cards (add your own Purim photo and text), to a trophy. The item can serve as your Purim “card” and coordinate with the theme of your choice.
These simple cello bags have a cute touch. Click here for the “Treats” version and here for “Candy.”
