I firmly believe in never showing up empty handed to a dinner party or holiday gathering. A gift for a host or hostess shows appreciation for the invitation and hospitality! Here are some of my favorite options this year as well as a few ways to personalize them!
- Holiday Coffee Brewing Set ($49.95, Starbucks). Everyone loves coffee! Pair with a bag of your favorite beans or this vintage Christmas blend! I love the white and red detail on this press.
- Voluspa ‘Maison Holiday’ Travel Tin Candles – Set of 4 ($32, Nordstrom). Everyone loves candles and this set of four is festive, yet elegant all year long.
- Custom Calligraphy Ceramic Ornament ($15, Glitter & Bold). I love beautiful ornaments like this! You can customize the text to read your host’s name, family name, the year or perhaps something cute and more universal like “joy” or “cheers!” – they’re also available in clear glass!
- “J-O-Y” Divided Triple Porcelain Bowl – white w. gold trim ($18, Threshold by Target). I love bowls like these! To personalize, I would fill each of the sections with homemade roasted nuts, candies or other tasty treats!
- Sour Cream Flour Sac Kitchen Towels: “Oh What Fun”, “Pinecone & Berry” and “Snowflake” ($4.95 each, Target). I love a festive tea towel, and these flour sac towels make great wine gift bags! Pop a bottle inside and tie the top with some satin or grosgrain ribbon and you’re on your way!
- Nesting Snowflake Bowls, Set of 3 ($29.95, Crate&Barrel). Each of these three bowls is uniquely painted and the set comes pre-wrapped with the red ribbon you see here! They’re perfect for dips, nuts and other holiday snacks!
