Top 10 Hostess Gift Ideas
The holidays are quickly approaching and since I’m not hosting anything this year I need to show up with sweet gifts for my hosts.
Here are some of my favorite items to gift!
No. 1 When my host is a foodie I like getting something food related like this handmade salt tasting dish.Love it’s pale coloring and great price point ($26).
No. 2 Everyone has candlesticks in their home, but not everyone splurges on designer looking candlesticks. I love Ana Candles striped candles and since your host gift might be for someone you don’t know that well I would go with a neutral color story.
No. 3 Hand soap is always a good gift. It can be used by the kitchen sink or in a bathroom and when you go with a glass bottle with little to no labels you get a vintage look to your gift and it works with any decor.
No. 4 Holidays always make me think of pie so why not get a cheeky tea towel for your host’s kitchen.
No. 5 Fresh flowers are always a win in my book. As you know I like to make the arrangements as well and you can to with these easy steps.
No. 6 Chocolates are the way to my heart and a classic for me is always See’s. They can do no wrong and my favorite mix is the milk chocolate nut and chews box.
No. 7 Picture frames can be tricky, because you can’t always be certain about a host’s style, but everyone loves to display photos so if you stick with something somewhat neutral like this black and white striped number it should be a win.
No. 8 Every get together requires some form of paper napkins and with everyone sporting bar carts these days I would pick up a couple of bunches of cocktail napkins for a sweet gift. All of these can even be personalized!
No. 9 Continuing with the bar cart theme a unique set of coasters will add a touch of pretty to any bar set up.
No. 10 When all else fails a bottle of wine always goes a long way. I’m not a big drinker so I can’t recommend any types, but I did enjoy this bottle.
Happy Entertaining!

ON THE BLOG
My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
OOoooo I love See’s candies! There’s only one place I’ve found in Michigan that sells it but it’s worth the trip to get it!
Thanks for the WOM love! I adore hostess gift guides…! Big Hugs xo @ Waiting on Martha
I love the variation from the traditional hostess gifts. When my husband and I visit, we always bring fresh flowers when we arrive. Who doesn’t love a few beautiful blooms?
