I am sharing my picks for this holiday season. This a curated list of gifts you can give to hostesses as a way to say “Thank you” when you attend holiday parties. Bottles of wine and chocolates are nice, but the best way to win is to select something memorable, useful, and meaningful. Check out the list!
But first, I have a few guidelines that you can follow:
Don’t choose what you want them to have, instead select something you know they will enjoy.
How much to spend?
$10 to $30 for Holiday Party
$50 to $100 for overnight stays
Don’t force the host to open or use the gift right away. Allow them to do so at their leisure.
