Last Minute Hostess Gifts

‘Tis the season for holiday parties, office gatherings, family get togethers, and more! While it’s definitely a time for celebration, sometimes this time of year is also accompanied by the stress of “what am I supposed to bring to this event?!” There’s always the go-to option of a nice bottle of wine, or the more labor intensive alternative of baking your favorite treat… but sometimes you want a more personal touch or something that does not involve using your oven (totes get it, we’re very over baking cookies by now). Enter these last minute hostess gifts, all of which are under $30 and sure to please!

  1. These are all such great gift ideas. Who doesn’t love a cozy blanket or a candle? I love the coiled beeswax candle. It’s so unique! I took a book called The Year of Cozy as a hostess gift to one of my parties!
