I did a Hostess gift post last week and had some similar items on my list….the most popular seemed to be engraved wine bottles. Love your list too!!

Thanks for these!!! I love all the ideas–all the ones in the catalogs are over $25 and I just don’t have that kind of cash, but I love to give lovely hostess gifts. Thanks for sharing!

One of my favorite hostess gifts is a selection of paper cocktail napkins tied up with a pretty raffia bow. I am careful to choose napkins that depict interests, hobbies etc of my hostess such as cats for the cat lover, funny sayings for the catholic school kid in all of us, pretty flowers, sophisticated monograms etc. It is always a big hit. I also like to take a pretty bowl full of candy appropriate for the occasion. It is a nice snack to set out since people love candy. Fourth of July I found a three way divided dish and fille dit with red, white and blue candies (red kisses, blue mini york peppermint patties and white choc nuts)wrapped it in cellophane and tied it with a wire gift tie with stars on it. It was huge hit and there was not one piece of candy left by the end of the night.
