Gifts for The Hostess – Holiday Gift Guide 2023

November 2, 2023 · In: Gift Guides, Lifestyle

Hosting season is officially here and you don’t want to show up empty handed. Sure, you can bring the classic bottle of wine as a gift – or you can step up your game with one of these fabulous options. Present the host with a memorable gift this holiday season to insure your invite for next year’s celebration.

Festive Bistro Tile Monogram Mug – $14

I know, I know – most people have more than enough mugs. Me included! However, that does not stop people from loving to receive a new mug. These ones from Anthropologie are a festive take on their classic black/gold bistro tile mugs.

Gingerbread House Tea Towel – $16

I love a good seasonal tea towel. Tea towels can come in so many designs and price ranges – the possibilities are truly endless! This gingerbread house one is super cute though.

Very Merry Cocktails Deck – $19.95

This is a card deck that offer 50 festive drink recipes! It is such a fun hostess gift and it’s something that can be used during the party as well.

Wood Wreath Serving Tray – $20

Is your hostess the charcuterie queen? This would be the perfect gift! I am obsessed with this wreath shaped serving board that is perfect for the holiday season.

Gray Malin Playing Card Set – $24.99

Everyone has a friend or family member who is always up for a classic game of cards! These ones featuring Gray Malin’s whimsical photography are sure to make them smile.

Bow Acrylic Stir Sticks Set of 4 – $25

Stir sticks are such a fun gift – and these ones are great because they’re reusable! There are so many different designs out there to choose from, but I personally love these ones from Simply Jessica Marie. They’re festive yet can still be used outside of Christmas.

Leopard Candle Snuffer – $28

The perfect hostess gift for the person who is always setting up her best decor and tablescapes with fabulous candles! This is hands down the coolest candle snuffer I’ve ever seen. I might just need to get it for myself.

Skier Glass Coasters Set of 4 – $39

I am a sucker for some seasonal coasters and these skier ones are just too cute! These are also available for personalization as shown on the first coaster.

Nest Hand Soap & Lotion Set – $58

I love having fancy soap and hand lotion around the house for when guests come. But I don’t like splurging on it! That’s why this would make the perfect gift. Nest offers so many fabulous scents – so take a look to find the perfect one.

Jo Malone Ginger Biscuit Candle – $82

If you’re really looking for a luxe hostess gift – this Jo Malone candle would be perfect! It is festive, yet functional. I always say the perfect gift is the item that a person wouldn’t purchase for themselves.

While this Christmas photo looks different than pl While this Christmas photo looks different than planned this year, I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas surrounded by peace and love🫶🏼

My prayer is that next year brings the blessings we hoped and prayed for this year, whether those things are big or small.

I’m so glad we decided to take a pit stop at @mo I’m so glad we decided to take a pit stop at @morganjuliadesigns brand new Jersey City location on our way home from NYC🫶🏼 This only added about 20min to our trip which was well worth it!🪡 Such a beautiful shop with so many great canvases👏🏼

Some tidbits from our trip as a NYC first-timer🚕
 
We stayed at @omniberkshirenyc - overall we enjoyed our stay! The location was perfect (right in between 5th Ave & Madison Ave) and was a short walk to Rockefeller and Central Park. Only complaint is that the rooms were very hot (75*+). They also had valet parking that we utilized. We drove into the city and while time consuming it wasn’t as stressful/difficult as we had imagined. I’d certainly drive in again.

Our highlights were @therockettes and walking through Central Park. We walked everywhere with the exception of a boat ride we did. We booked a car through RideLux for that which I do not recommend, about equal service to Uber for 2x the price. 

The boat ride with Classic Harbor Line felt like it wasn’t worth the $100/pp price tag. Seeing the Statue of Liberty up close was neat, but that was about it. Also, if you get sea sick CHL is NOT for you! 

Shopping overall was underwhelming, but we did hit the classic FAO Schwarz which regardless of the long line this time of year was a must-do! We got there 10min before opening and only waited about 10min after opening to get in. 

As for dining we did some quick spots around the city including Springbone Kitchen - perfect for a fast casual but healthy meal - we did pick up and took it to our room! Ralph’s Coffee in UES was also on my must-do list and honestly it didn’t disappoint! I’ve been to the Paris and NYC locations now and both times it’s been delicious and the perfect drinking temperature, even if you do have to wait a bit. For dinner we got a same day reservation for BG at Bergdorf’s - the food and service were great and reasonably priced imo!

I’m so happy we got to experience NYC at Christmas as it’s been on my bucket list my entire life! I love a trip filled with firsts, since they’re what make lasting memories!✨

✨48hrs in NYC✨ Somehow at 27 I had still never ✨48hrs in NYC✨
Somehow at 27 I had still never been to NYC until now🌃 I’ve always dreamed of going to NYC as a little girl, especially at Christmas! Today dreams came true with a visit to Radio City Music Hall to see @therockettes and it did not disappoint👏🏼 I’ll be sharing more tidbits from my trip over the next few days🚕

*also brownie points to whoever can tell me where this iconic townhome is from😉*

30 hours at the most festive place on earth🏰🎄

We booked this trip after my miscarriage so we could get out of town, even just for a night, and embrace ourselves in holiday magic✨ While nothing will take away the pain and heartache, distractions help the days pass faster🤍

Next week we’re off to NYC for a few days full of firsts!🚕 Defintiely nervous but excited for this bucket list trip✅
