Holiday hosting gift ideas
its 6 pm and you just realize that you spent all week worrying about what to wear to the neighbors holiday party that starts at 6:30pm and completely forgot about a hosting gift. Hello panic attack! As if the Holiay’s aren’t stressful enough. I don’t make the rules I just try desperately not to break them. A last minute gift that always works, Grab a bottle of wine from the fridge and tie a ribbon on it. But if you want to be proactive or just happen to be in target while reading this then stock up on these other ideas I like for anyone from Teachers, Co-workers, and Neighbors.
Wine, Wine and more wine please!!!
I love this wine because of the fancy label and it tastes great and doesn’t break the bank
Another site I found about a year ago is Scout and Cellar. The claim to have less sugar and no additives which means less headaches. As some one who has consumed a large amount of their wine, I can say that this is true fro me and they are great tasting too!
I like to wrap a bottle with seasonal or pretty kitchen towels because everyone can use them or regift. Its a 2 for one and who can resist that? No One
I LOVE these books and all things Amy Sedaris. These are true favorite of mine. I own both and I gift them frequently.
Anything with initials on it. I’ve noticed this is a big thing here in Texas. People here enjoy a good monogram on anything and everything!
Candles: I have to be honest I’m not a huge lover of candles, I am always afraid I will forget to blow out and burn my house down. Call me crazy, and most people do.
Did I mention wine?
I also have a few recipes for candies, fudge and granola that I like to give out too but usually only to neighbors and friends. I feel bad giving someone I don’t know well a homemade food. I know that when I was a teacher I was always leary of home made food from parents. (My anxiety extends to food born illness as well)
So really just a few items I guess: Ha! If your coming to my house I guess you know now that wine and will never be turned away!
