Housewarming & Hostess Gifts

Best Housewarming & Hostess Gifts

Welcome to our hostess gift giving guide, filled with top picks for unique home decor, and thoughtful gifts for hosts of any gathering. Our golden rule for hostess gifting etiquette is to match the atmosphere of the party being thrown. Decide whether a simple yet clever gift or a truly surprising display of gratitude is appropriate. Consider gifts for the home, kitchen, for the dining table, outdoor dining or coffee table décor. We have you covered with gift sets and housewarming gift ideas for things every hostess needs, whether they only throw occasions occasionally or are known as expert-level-extravaganza hostesses.

For the hostess of: A party thrown in your honor

Perhaps it's friends or family throwing you a bridal shower, baby shower or other celebratory event. Shop our unique gifts for wedding parties to make everyone feel special. Chances are you know this person well enough to know perfect hostess gifts for the home and their taste, so go bold with throw pillows, towels set, glasses set or unique home décor gifts, such as ceramic vases and candle holders. Say thank you with a luxurious throw blanket. Gift something as special and unique as your relationship.

For the hostess of: An elegant dinner party

Getting an invite to this party is akin to a golden ticket. They are a master at throwing parties. A fête fatale. And you’ll want to gift them something unique, because you’ll want to stand out as a must-invite for future soirees. So ditch the wine bottle. Instead, why not get them something to de-stress after the last guest has departed. Think decadent bath salts, candles, champagne flutes and diffusers and other gifts for her. Or try our selection of gifts for foodies.

For the hostess of: A get-together where you’re the plus one

As you enter this stranger’s home, anticipate leaving as a treasured guest. Rather than showing up empty handed, consider a gift to thank them for including you, and welcoming you into their home. Explore scented candles, tea towels, salt & pepper shakers, coffee mugs and even serving utensils. You may not know them (or their home) well enough yet, so keep gifts simple yet thoughtful.

For the hostess of: A holiday season gathering

The most wonderful time of the year is typically true for guests, while hosts and hostesses bear the burden of the perfect party. Lend a hand and enter with a gift in hand. Think serving trays, bottle openers, wine gifts, cutting boards, or a serving bowl -- the things we somehow always need one more of on these festive occasions. Our other golden rule? Gifts for the kitchen are always welcome.
