Once the last few weeks of November hit, it is full on hosting season! Whether or not you host a shing dig this month, you will surely be invited to some sort of festive celebration! While a hostess gift is in NO WAY required, it can be a thoughtful way to show your thanks and appreciation to your host. I have rounded up some of my favorite hostess gifts below! (Pro-Tip: Watch those sales throughout the year, and stock up on your fave gifts. Set them aside in a bin, so they are ready to grab when a fun invitation is sent your way!)
Seasonal Hand Soap & a Tea Towel. This combo is my absolute favorite go-to hostess gift! If you have hosted me, you probably have received one of these! I wrap the tea towel around the hand soap and tie with a ribbon! Voila! Mrs. Meyer’s is brand loved by many and is pretty easy to find in your local grocery store or Target. Anthropologie, Home Goods & Target, also offer a great selection of tea towels.
Reed Diffuser. I LOVE a good reed diffuser! Scents hand be tough to guess, so if you choose a stronger scent, be sure you absolutely know your host is going to love it. I typically aim for something on the tamer side.
A cookbook or coffee table book paired with tapered candles to match your hostess’ aesthetic. I love Pizzazeries’s Entertain in Style party book paired with some fun pink spiral candles stacked and tied with a ribbon!
A small potted plant from Trader Joe’s is great gift your hostess can enjoy for months or even years to come!
Flowers are always a lovely idea! Just make sure to bring a vase with water so your hostess does not have to be taken away from preparing the meal or entertaining guests to find a fill a vase. A sauce jar with the label scrubbed off works just as beautifully as a vase!
Special Serve Ware. Many hostesses love adding special pieces to their serve ware set. A beautiful cake serving set or unique platter like this one with adorable bows can make the perfect gift that your hostess will be able to use for years and years!
