Holiday gifts for the hostess, neighbor or friend are something I like to stock up on ahead of time. I can’t tell you how many times a last minute event has popped up on the calendar and I’m scrambling to find a rogue candle or bottle of wine when I wish I had something special on hand. This holiday gift guide for the hostess, neighbor or friend who loves to host is filled with goodies.
One of my favorite hostess gifts around the holidays is an ornament (how cute is this cheese set?). I have so many collected ornaments on my tree that bring back wonderful memories every time I hang them up! Who doesn’t get a little giddy around Christmas? A good reminder of seasons past. This gift guide is a mix of holiday favorites and entertaining must haves that any hostess, friend or neighbor would welcome around the holidays. I put together a gift guide collection of even more gift ideas for the hostess, if you’re looking for some extra inspiration. You can find my extended gift guide right here.
Holiday Gift Guide for the Hostess
These beautiful pictures frames would make a lovely gift and you get this set of two for $58!
Donna Hay is one of my favorite chefs. Her recipes are stunning and delicious and this Christmas version is something I savor every season.
Stop everything and buy multiple of these. This is the best holiday candle ever. You’ll want for your own home, too.
This set would be a beautiful gift idea OR separate the set and you have 6 different gifts to tie onto a wine bottle, pair with a stinky cheese or serve with a mini serving board. I love the colors!
Like I said, I love to gift an ornament. This oyster shell is so beautiful and would be a great gift for my Charleston friends.
We all have that friend who is the hostess with the mostest and deserves a little sparkle! I love the idea of gifting something that maybe they wouldn’t buy for themselves. These Dottie earrings are so much fun!
I love the idea of keeping a recipe book in the kitchen. My favorite way to document the meals I randomly throw together at home and don’t want to forget. A great gift for the host/friend who loves to cook!
I love a “collected” glassware situation and these wave glasses would be a beautiful addition to your bar. Plus, they come in a bunch of colors!
How fun is this! Would be a happy addition to your kitchen counter and the prettiest way to display your favorite olive oil.
These cute napkins come in so many prints! In my opinion, you can never have enough cocktail napkins.
If you have not tried Red Clay’s margarita salt, you are missing out. They instantly elevate your margarita! This little duo is perfect for anyone on your list who enjoys a cocktail.
The perfect hostess gift and a great way to build a foodie’s Christmas tree.
The “go with everything” serving set in the happiest blue stripe.
A little something feminine and special that we most likely won’t buy for ourselves but would very much welcome sitting on our vanity.
Having pretty bakeware in the kitchen makes cooking that much more enjoyable. This pretty pink pie dish is perfect for the holiday season (and year round).
This is one of those items that I buy in mass quantities because everyone needs a butter ornament on their tree. Tie it to a bottle of a wine and call it a day!
This little wine caddy tote would get so much use! Perfect for on the go and very durable.
I am so proud of our gift guides this year! Don’t forget our other gift guides that have gone live…
