Holiday Host Gift-Giving Tips

Guess what? It’s November.  That means holiday party invites will be rolling out any time now!  Whether you’re heading over to Grandma’s house or your BFF’s apartment, don’t show up empty handed! It’s never too early to start preparing for holiday parties.

Firstly, it’s important to KNOW your host. For example, don’t show up with a bottle of wine if your host doesn’t drink alcohol!  Go for something fun and creative that any host or hostess will love! The best gifts are the ones that stand out because of their unique and personal touch.  Try a gift basket of goodies like freshly baked cookies and a chocolate candy assortment with things like truffles and toffees.

Say your host doesn’t have much of a sweet tooth, but you still want to the get them something edible - try an assortment of teas or hot chocolates!  These goodies are festive and can be sipped by the fireside during the holidays. 

Aromatherapy gifts are great gifting ideas and a welcome alternative to cookies and candies.  Just make sure your products use all natural fragrances, just in case your host has a sensitive nose.

While you shop for the perfect gift, choose something that is not too personal, but not too generic either.  Remember: A holiday party is NOT complete until you’ve picked out the right gift for your host!
