Cheers to the brave souls who open their homes for holiday parties. Sure, it’s a lot of fun, but it’s also a lot of work. This time of year, inspiration for hostess gifts is hard to find. Forget visions of sugar plums, our minds are crowded with never-ending holiday gift lists. But no one wants to arrive at a party empty handed. Here’s hoping we’ve found a little something for everyone.

LDU Coffee – In my opinion, coffee is always the answer. Especially if it’s Australian-inspired LDU coffee. An LDU gift card and a freshly ground bag of their magic coffee beans will help your hosts bounce right back after a soiree. There are five LDU locations around Dallas. If you live in the area, we highly recommend finding one near you.

Bialetti Moka Pot – These Italian stovetop espresso makers will keep your hosts caffeinated and bright all season long. They come in a variety of sizes and are available at Williams Sonoma or Amazon. This pot is a wonderful stand-alone gift, or it pairs perfectly with LDU coffee beans.

Amazon Find – Boska Stainless Steel Cheese Slicer – Let’s face it, charcuterie is delicious! And this dishwasher safe, expensive-looking cheese slicer makes our favorite appetizer even easier to enjoy. At less than $10, this gift will keep you on everyone’s nice list!

Plant Style – Studies show that indoor plants boost mood, increase energy, and reduce stress. It’s the gift that keeps on giving! Plant Style offers a variety of interior plant designs, gifts, home décor, and more. It’s located at 10216 Northwest Highway in Dallas, TX.

White Rock Soap Gallery (WRSG) – Enhance your host’s holiday selfcare routine with any of the soaps, candles and gift sets from the WRSG. There are four locations in the Dallas area. 

The Mended Company, Tea Towel – The textiles from Mended are hand block printed by survivors of modern-day slavery in South Asia. Each product is accompanied by a small story card that explains how it was made and who made it. Each time your hostess enjoys her new gift, she will remember that her hospitality made a lasting impact.

Baller Mom Kitchen's Sweet Heat Pimento Cheese Dip – Your host will really appreciate finding this snack in his or her fridge after a long night of entertaining. It’s made with candied jalapenos and is delicious with crackers – but it’s extra amazing as the star of a grilled cheese sandwich.

Yeti Cocktail Shaker – Leave it to Yeti to make happy hour even cooler. This 20-ounce shaker will keep your host’s drinks cold from the first pour to the last. We especially love the limited edition rescue red color. It’s available online at yeti.com.

Now of course, if you really want to thank your hostess, you could give her the gift of Kisabeth Furniture. We’re always here if you need us. Have a great time celebrating the season!

 
Until Next Month,
