A great bottle of wine is a wonderful gift for a hostess but here are a few ideas that will last a little bit longer than a few glasses.
- a set of brass pineapple tumblers paired with a nice bottle of rum or vodka and a few lemons and limes.
- a beautiful interior design book. we love Emily Hendersons, styled, it is full of wonderful design tips and bright colorful pages. For those who prefer a more minimalist, scandanavian decor, Northern Delights has some wonderful inspiration
- a classic board game will never disappoint. A few of our favorites can be found here, here and here.
- a beautiful wooden bowl of fresh produce; for the summertime, a bowl of fresh peaches and in the winter, white and orange mini pumpkins.
- a set of flavored salts, Sur la Table has a wonderful selection as well as the Hepps salt sample kit.
- any fresh herb in a pretty pot or fresh herbs picked from your garden and tied with a pretty ribbon
Just to be clear, a bottle of wine is a wonderful gift, but if you are looking for a good twist on an old classic, pair it with two of your favorite cheeses and a mini baguette.
Happy gifting!
