I want to share how our family utilized a small place to set out food at our family reunion! We have a large family so we needed all the room we could get! The kitchen area only had a 3 foot wide cement counter so that's where all the food had to be placed. We used 2 children's small swimming pools that we purchased at Walmart, I think it was $4.88 each.
We just arranged the bowls and poured ice around it, We were under a pavilion and the food stayed cold all afternoon! Clean up is easy. Remove the bowls and dump the ice.
Save the pools for future parties/reunions! Unless the kids claim them :)
Everyone said "Wow, who thought of this?" Sure helped put a lot of food in a small area.
That's true you could cover it, but decorative designs around the edges are attractive and summery looking and colors often match the bowls. Plus its a conversation starter. Family loved the idea too :) Thanks for the reply, try it.
That is a great idea! I imagine if you didn't want the pool to show, you could just cover the pool with a round vinyl table cloth, then fill it with ice, the cloth would drape over the edges and hide the pool. Bravo to you!
