Holiday Host Gift Ideas

HOST & HOSTESS GIFT IDEAS-

 

Entertaining during the holidays can be stressful. There’s so much to manage — from cleaning and decorating the house to organizing and cooking a meal. That’s why it’s such a thoughtful gesture to bring a small gift to your host or hostess. It’s a terrific way to say thank you for all the hard work they put into creating a wonderful event. While a bottle of wine or a bouquet of flowers are always a good choice, there are many other suitable gifts out there as well. These are our top picks for host gifts this holiday season for the host and hostess with the mostest.

A beautiful cookbook

Does your holiday host love to cook? Then a beautiful new cookbook can be a perfect gift! Think about the kinds of meals or treats that your host loves to make. Did they get on the sourdough bread bandwagon during the pandemic? Or do they tend to make dishes with exotic spices and flavors? There are so many wonderful new cookbooks out there — from southern barbecue to vegan. Here’s a great list to get you started.

A fun or challenging puzzle

Puzzles have long been a great way to relax and unwind — especially when it’s too cold to go outside. Puzzles even made a huge comeback during the pandemic, helping to keep us occupied why we all stayed inside during lockdown. If your host is known as a puzzle aficionado, then bring them one as a gift. You can choose a puzzle with a theme that they enjoy (say, kittens or gardens) or challenge them with one of the most difficult puzzles you can buy.

Extra-virgin olive oil

Instead of that bottle of wine, why not bring a bottle of your favorite extra-virgin olive oil as a gift for your host? This is another great choice for home chefs. Olive oil is used in so many recipes, and there’s a big difference between a really good bottle and those you find on the grocery store shelves. You don’t even need to spend a fortune to score a good bottle. Here’s a wonderful list of the best olive oils that you can buy at every price point.

Garden essentials

Gardening is another hobby that seriously took off during the pandemic. If your host has a green thumb, then we promise they would love to get garden essentials as a gift. There really is so much to choose from. You can gift them with several packets of seeds from your favorite supplier, a pair of classic herb snips, or even a sturdy pair of gardening gloves. Here’s an excellent selection of gardening gifts that we promise your host will appreciate.

Gifts for their pet

Finally, if your host is a pet parent, then gifting a little something to their best friend can make you their favorite guest. For dogs, you can buy them a fun toy or even a cute outfit for the holidays. Those with cats would enjoy toys stuffed with catnip, a soft bed, or even a custom portrait. Many folks adopted pets during the pandemic, and bringing your host something they can use to pamper their newest family member will surely be a big hit.
