Gift Guide 2019: Hostess Gifts
Don’t bring the same thing that everyone else does- instead, bring something off this list. That way, even if you are THAT GIRL at the party (ya know, the one swinging from the rafters with her underwear showing telling inappropriate jokes), you will still be remembered fondly by your host :):
1 - Humble with Hint of Kanye Candle: Gotta love a smug scent, right?
2 - Double Walled Oil Holder: Never seen a more gorgeous way to serve EVOO, and it’s under $50.
3 - Jonathan Adler Mohawk Match Holder: If everyone else brings candles, be the guest that brings this.
4 - MOMA Tic Tac Trivet Coasters: Fun and functional, right? (NOTE: As of 12/10 the MOMA version sold out, but we found THIS VERSION which is so fun too and less $$$!)
5 - Instax Camera: Because they wanted to set up a photo booth, but just never got around to it. This makes it happen instantly!
6 - Encore Singing Game: A grown-up party game that will liven up late night antics. Best bundled with booze.
7 - Havly Towels: Obsessed with this new towel brand- if you are going to stay with someone for the holiday, bring them a set for their guest bathroom (though they will likely end up stealing said towels for their own daily use!) Love that they come with their own hooks too- a cute gift-y detail.
8 - Scented Shower Steamers: Not every host is a bath taker- I mean, who has the TIME?! Acknowledge that reality with this gift that turns a simple shower into an aromatherapy experience.
9 - Family Feud Game: Break this puppy out when your host is a few drinks in and/or the party feels like it is in a lull- you will win MVP of the night. Every damn time. Promise.
10 - Giant Ring Pop: Limited edition just for the holidays- this is the $10 gift that guarantees smiles- especially for a recently-engaged friend or newlywed couple. (Insider tip: buy a bunch now, and have them on hand to celebrate engagements to come in 2020….)
11 - Target Wondershop Marshmallow Set: A YARD OF MARSHMALLOWS? In fun shapes? YES YES YES! Bundle it with mugs and a bag of hot chocolate mix, and consider yourself invited to any party I ever host.
