Top 10 Best Hosting Gifts Your Friends Will Love
Nothing is better than gathering with friends and family to enjoy each other's company in your homes. When attending a get-together, people often struggle with what to bring the host as a suitable thank-you. I've compiled a list with links to some of my favorite gifts you can take to your next party.
Although I frequently buy a variety of items from Etsy.com, I especially love this as a gift. Obviously, food-themed items are perfect for dinner parties, and everyone loves charcuterie boards! Bringing something personalized can elevate an otherwise simple item.
I know that gifting a candle is not a revolutionary idea, but this specific candle is one of the absolute best. Not only is the candle in pretty packaging, but the famous "volcano" scent is my favorite. It is sure to be a crowd favorite, and I can't imagine anyone not enjoying the fresh and fruity scent.
I'm a strong proponent of consumable gifts! For the host that seems to have it all, a pre-made gift basket can serve you well. Whether you order from Harry & David or another brand in their family, tailoring a themed basket to the host is personal and exciting to receive.
This gift stands out to me as something a host would not necessarily enjoy buying for themselves, but appreciate having. Anything that the host can use for future gathers is usually a hit.
This practical gift is great for all wine lovers. The insulated chiller will fit almost all wine bottles and keep them cold for up to 6 hours. Plus, this amazon product has amazing reviews!
6. Cake Stand with Baked Goods
A great way to combine a purchased gift with a DIY is to pair homemade treats with a nice tray or stand. This provides a nice presentation, while also giving the host an option to easily set out the goodies for guests with no additional work for them!
These personalized coasters are another great Etsy find that will make you look creative! Taking the classic coaster gift and adding a nod to a significant place for the host will surely be a hit. Whether you customize the location to the host's hometown, favorite sports team, college town, vacation home, or anything else, they will think of you each time they use them.
8. Server Set
Bringing a nice server set with you is not only a nice gesture, but will likely upgrade a simple item that the host already has, and hasn't thought of buying for themselves. This gift will surely go right into their drawer to use for all their future hosting!
9. Your Favorite Board or Yard Game
There are very few things in life that I enjoy more than playing a fun game with good friends! Bringing your favorite board or yard game (depending on weather and location), is a great excuse to give the party attendees something to do while you can teach them how to play. One of my favorite yard games that I highly recommend is Kan Jam. This is essentially a way to give the gift of fun!
For the host that loves kitchen gadgets, or just is a kid at heart, gifting an at-home ice cream cone maker is a unique gift they will love to use again. Even the people who "have it all," likely have never thought to purchase this.
Whether you are attending a dinner party, outdoor barbeque, or a Friendsgiving, it is important to always thank the host for providing a space to make great memories with loved ones. Hopefully, these gifts can be used to show appreciation in a fun and unique way. Feel free to share with me any other hosting gifts that you would love to give, or receive, at your next gathering!
