    i think it sounds nice as it is, however if your budget stretches you could include any of the following;

    cheese board and knives?
    mugs for the coffee and tea?
    wine glasses?

  • Perhaps you could make sugar stirrers (like you can buy in whittards) for the coffee - I'm sure I've seen instructions or at least a link to instructions on how to make them on here.
