Martha Stewart reveals the biggest entertaining mistake you can make — and how to fix it
Share and Follow


Nobody knows how to throw a party like Martha Stewart.

More than four decades after the release of “Entertaining,” her classic debut cookbook that solidified her status as a homemaking icon, the 84-year-old businesswoman is still hosting events better than anyone else’s — and sharing words of wisdom along the way.

“I hope every host feels confident and happy to open their homes. For guests, I would like them to feel welcome and eager to join in on the party,” says Stewart, who recently collaborated with Paperless Post on a collection of digital invitations inspired by her robust entertaining archive and cheeky wit. (A garden party invite jokes that “a little green never hurt anyone,” while one for a dinner gathering promises “scandalous conversation.”)

Below, Stewart shares some of her top entertaining dos and don’ts with Page Six Style ahead of the holiday season.

Fresh flowers, a homemade treat or a beautiful candle are always appreciated.
