10 Christmas Hostess Gift Ideas

November 11, 2022 · Lifestyle

10 Christmas Hostess Gift Ideas

‘Tis the season! The Christmas season is upon us and there is no better time than now to start preparing! I think we all know that this season is not about gifts. Well maybe not everyone! But is a nice time to show others that we love and appreciate them. Over the next few weeks, I will be putting out a few different gift guides to help you come up with some unique ideas! So today I am sharing 10 Christmas hostess gift ideas!

Over the summer I did a blog post, 5 Hostess Gift Ideas That Won’t Leave You Empty Handed. You can read that here. It is a great post with ideas for everyday ideas when you are invited over to someone’s home. If you are in a pinch, you can always go with the old wine or flowers! But I hope you enjoy a few of the ideas that I am sharing with you today.

1. Minute Mimosa Sugar Cube Trio

When I came across this gift idea I almost grabbed it for myself! This is a perfect hostess gift for the champagne or wine lover in your life! There are 3 different flavors: Citrus Trio, Peaches & Berries, or Shimmer Citrus. You just drop them in your drink, and they will give a hint of flavor along with pieces of fruit that float to the top! Plus, they are made in the USA!

2. Charcuterie Christmas Tree Board

Charcuterie boards are very popular now! I think a perfect gift would be to come with a Christmas tree board decorated with different meats and cheeses and leave the board as a hostess gift!

3. Smore Roaster

Who doesn’t love smores?! This would be even more fun if the hostess has children. But let’s be honest, adults are going to love it too! Just add graham crackers, chocolate, and marshmallows to it!

4. Hand-Blown Olive Oil Pourer

Are you going to someone’s home that loves to cook? This is a great gift, and they are absolutely beautiful! It is something that the hostess will be able to leave out on the kitchen counter and not worry about tucking away in the pantry.

5. Christmas Tree Cookie Platter

Do you like to make Christmas cookies every year? Pick up one of these Christmas tree cookie platters and load it up with your cookies and give it to your hostess and let her keep the platter! If you aren’t a baker, stop by a local bakery and pick up a few cookies!

6. Throw

Who doesn’t love a soft and comfy throw for the couch? You could go with a Christmas color or neutral that they could keep out all year long. I don’t care what anyone says, you can never have too many throws!

7. Unique Gingerbread House Kit

One year when we had all our kids in town for Christmas we had a gingerbread house contest, boys against girls. It was a lot of fun! I recommend finding a unique gingerbread house like this one and bringing it to your hostess especially if they have kids!

8. Christmas Scented Reed Diffuser

I love reed diffusers, especially in the bathroom. They typically don’t have an overwhelming fragrance. A Christmas-scented one like peppermint would be a great gift. A lot of them come in pretty bottles too!

9. Wood Pizza Party Appetizer Serving Board

We usually do not make pizza at home but if I got this as a gift I would start! This is such a great idea! The board breaks apart with individual serving pieces. So cute!

10. Hand Soap & Lotion Set

This is such a great gift idea for someone who loves to personalize their guest bathroom. Having these matching soap & lotion sets makes a bathroom look so put together. A lot of times this is something people don’t want to splurge on for themselves but love getting as a small gift!


So, do you routinely bring a hostess gift when you are invited to someone’s home for a get-together? I think it is such a nice gesture to bring something. It doesn’t have to cost a lot, just to show that you appreciate them. Which Christmas hostess gift idea did you most like and might use this season? Please share below in the comments!

One of my favorite places to be. There is something about a palm tree that is just soothing to me, I'm not sure what it is. Pair them with the ocean and sand and life can't get much better. 
God's creations never cease to amaze me. I hope this Monday starts you off with a great week. 
Are you seeing signs of spring where you are yet? Believe it or not, our pollen is crazy right now!

Have you ever been in a situation where you don't have the right words? An arrow prayer is a quick prayer asking for guidance, help, or maybe the right words to use at the moment. 
God is always there, just waiting to be asked to help you. 🤍 Good times & bad.

I went to a luncheon last week and found the perfect dress. (At least I thought so!) Perfect for spring or summer get togethers, Easter, or even a wedding. 
You can find all of the details over on my LTK page along with a link to it. You can find that over in my profile or comment below to request it sent directly to your inbox. 
Have you found the perfect spring dress yet?

This is pretty self-explanatory but like my mom used to say, "you are like the people you surround yourself with". The best people can wind up in bad situations because they get caught up hanging out with the wrong crowd. 
It can be a fine line between wanting to help someone and getting sucked up into a bad way of living. Keeping God at the center is a good way to begin and stay on the right path. 
Happy Sunday friends 🤍

Happy Monday friends. I hope you have sunshine where you are. I think that is the best part about living in Florida, there are more sunny days than not! ☀️ Our problems just seem easier to manage when the sun is shining. It's a gift from God. 
If you are struggling today, I hope you are able to catch a few rays of sunshine to help wash them away. Remember, keep looking up. 🙏
Are you on team rainy days or sunshine?

Having a tough time lately? It's a rough world out there! I know the Bible gets a bad rap but if you take the time to read it, it actually gives you a "roadmap" on how to help live your life. You know, 𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝓅𝒶𝓉𝒽 for you to follow! And Jesus was pretty clever in some of his storytelling (parables).
Just remember, you are never alone and are loved. 🤍

𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐈𝐬 𝐈𝐭 𝐒𝐨 𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐁𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐎𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬? 
I have learned over this past year that we cannot place our expectations on others. Or be disappointed when they don’t act in a way that we would. 
I have been guilty of doing this in the past. Gossiping is human nature, and we have to make a concerted effort not to participate in it. But there is gossip and then there is listening to others tell untruths about someone that isn’t correct. How can we change this in ourselves? Because it doesn’t feel great when it happens to us. And it shouldn’t feel great when you do it to someone else.
𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐬 𝟏𝟔:𝟐𝟖– 𝘈 𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘣𝘭𝘦𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘳 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘴 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘥𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘧𝘦; 𝘨𝘰𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘱 𝘴𝘦𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘧𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘴.
When a stranger believes something that has been said about us it can be easier to not let it bother us. But when it is someone that we place value on, family or a close friend, it can sting. Often it is the people closest to us that believe lies told by the enemy. But why?
So today over on 𝐇𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐁𝐥𝐨𝐠 we are talking about the question, why is it so easy to believe the worst in others? You can find the link in my profile! 🔗

I think I love the look of coastal decor because it is always so bright & airy. It just makes you want to smile and go either to the beach or outside to get some fresh air! ☀️
I love the front console table that we found. It has rattan doors on the front for a slight casual but polished look. This is the other lamp that goes with my set from Lamps Plus. I love the aqua/blue color. They are even prettier in person.
