Have you been invited to someone else’s home for a holiday meal or a party? If so, you might be wondering what to give as a hostess gift (or host). Below are some ideas that your host will appreciate, from cute to serene, and they all have price tags that will leave you feeling tranquil.
Gift Candles
Harvest votives have a pumpkin pie scent and come in fabric bags with leaf motifs in fall colors. A charming gift that is very affordable. Currently on special for just $5.00.
Your host will love this attractive, scented gift candle from Misikko. It comes in a heavy glass holder, inside a nice gift box, complete with signature matchbook. This is an affordable yet stylish hostess gift with clean lines to fit in with any décor.
Aromatherapy
Handmade relaxation votives make a great gift. “Relaxation” mixes lavender, lemongrass, vanilla, and grapefruit. They are packaged for gifting. Four aromatherapy votives cost just under $7.00. Give your favorite host a gift that will help him or her unwind once all the guests have gone.
Wine Charms
Wine charms come in handy. Slip them around any style of stemmed glasses, and guests never have to worry about picking up the wrong drink. While you may find a set that costs a little less, these are very nice looking. They come in a variety of styles, so you should be able to find just the right ones for your favorite host or hostess.
Hand Towels with a Twist
Try these theme printed disposable hand towels with the look and feel of linen. You get 100 towels for around $15.00 or choose the towel set complete with chrome basket for about $20.00. Available in different styles. You’ll want to keep these for your own guest bathroom.
Thoughtful Addition
If your host or hostess does quite a bit of entertaining, add this thoughtful gesture along with your gift. Print a pretty card with the information for Evite, a free service that helps hosts organize their guest list, email invitations, plan, collect RSVPs, and even offers online thank-you notes.
