Another easy way to serve drinks: Sarah keeps a stash of clear-glass wine bottles on hand (“good-looking ones that I’ve recycled; I use them for water and cold beverages, shrubs being a current favorite,” she says).

a long standing remodelista favorite: the painter&#8\2\17;s drop cloth as t 24
Above: A long-standing Remodelista favorite: the painter’s drop cloth as tablecloth (to soften the fabric, we suggest you launder it first). Ace Hardware offers heavyweight Canvas Drop Cloths in several sizes, ranging in price from $11.99 to $34.99.

And Ikea’s 365+ Six-Ounce Glasses are $3.99 a six-pack. Find even more at 10 Easy Pieces: Basic Drinking Glasses.
