5 Gift Ideas for the Hostess

Monday, December 5, 2016

Tis the season for parties and gift-giving! Here are the perfect hostess gifts to give, depending on the party you’re going to.

For your neighborhood potluck

The hostess who throws a potluck has a lot on her plate. That’s why she needs everyone’s help with the spread. Skip the hostess gift, and bring something delicious for everyone to enjoy. Let Joseph & Company do the work with one of our choices from our Gatherings at Home series. The warm artichoke dip with toasted pita chips is a classic. Don’t worry, we won’t tell her that you didn’t whip it up yourself!

For your work party

Work parties are perhaps the toughest party to throw. The crew is a hodgepodge of tastes and personalities. That’s why the perfect hostess gift for this occasion is a cocktail! Show her you appreciate the hardwork with a handwritten recipe, like this one for our Apple Cider Moscow Mule, along with the local ingredients from our market.

For your bestie's party

You know her, you love her, and since she’s your best bud, then you’ve probably been roped into setting up for this party. She’ll need your help keeping her on task. While you and your bestie are setting up for the soiree, sip on some Banjo’s Cold Brew Autumn Spice Latte. It tastes like the holidays, and will give you the extra energy you need to pull of the perfect party. 

For your family party

Warm up your childhood house with handmade candles from Turnrow. Smell the season with the Mistletoe Soy Candle or the Pumpkin Spice Soy Candle as you reminisce on all your embarrassing childhood memories.

For all occasions

What’s the best hostess gift you can give (aside from your presence)? A G&G Gift Card, because those hostesses are going to be too tired to shop & plan meals after the party! Add on a locally hand-crafted wooden spoon if you'd like to lend an extra hand in the kitchen.
