thoughtful hostess gifts
the holidays are now here!! {yay} sometimes fancy soaps and potpourri sachets get lost in a drawer. if you want to give something that someone will love {and use right away},
here are are some cute and thoughtful hostess gifts:
i used this polka dot paper for a few things with our wedding
{like the hotel boxes}
it’s from michael’s and makes such a fun paper wrap for fresh flowers
tied with a hello tag – hello, so cute.
wine wrapped in a festive cloth
the pine cones create such a wonderful touch
adore everything about this basket!!
succulents are always a good idea!
a margarita mix kit
perfect for the holidays
i have had students give a piece of their family christmas tree as part of their gift/wrapping and found it so personal – a meaningful touch
love this idea of finding vintage mugs/cups at flea markets and adding a succulent/plant
breakfast for two
a lovely touch for thanksgiving day
{a printable is available!}
polariad magnets- aMaZinG.
…
thoughts? what do you usually bring as a hostess gift?

Wow! I love the mini margarita mix kit and the mini christmas tree! These are great ideas! Especially right around the holidays when you go to so many parties. This is a great way to show your appreciation to the host/hostess! Great post 🙂

I would love to give or get any of these! They're all so thoughtful and pretty! And not stuff that would get thrown in a drawer, like you mentioned!

I really like the idea of wrapping wine in a festive cloth. I've always felt so odd walking up and just handing them the bare bottle. Like oh hey I swung by on my way last minute to get this for you…
