Host/Hostess Gifts

Host/Hostess Gifts

The holidays are upon us! We are always excited to share the festive days with those near and dear, but we can be a bit anxious over buying the perfect host/ hostess gift to bring along to the affair – be it a dinner, drinks, or party. Nothing says “I-didn’t-really-think-aboutit and just stopped off at the store on my way enroute” like a bottle of wine – regardless of its vintage – or a bouquet of flowers that are already wilting. This year, go bigger or you may need to go home. Try out one of these and marvel at the result!

Personalized Coasters

Embellished cork coasters are a personal, practical hostess gift (protecting tables from guests’ frosty glasses). Create a set for your hostess, tie together with ribbon, and give with a bottle of booze.

Garden in a Box

A portable garden, which contains the ingredients for herbal tea your hostess can enjoy again and again.

Vintage Books

Unusual out-of-print cooking and gardening books are fun and thoughtful gifts to bring any host or hostess of a party.

Salt, Sugar, and Bread

Salt for spice, sugar for sweetness, and bread for sustenance is a traditional Jewish gift that transcends boundaries and makes a lovely present.

Homemade Jam

Give the gift of a bottle of homemade jam or applesauce. Easy to make, it is thoughtful, practical and delicious.
