With Holiday Parties beginning this week, I wanted to share my Gift Guide with the Best Hostess Gifts with you today.  Entertaining is my love language so putting together this gift guide was super easy for me! I’ve gathered beautiful gifts for entertaining that will please and using one of them I’ve created a great holiday cocktail and mocktail!

Also, I’ve also updated my Best Black Friday and Cyber Monday Sales list with new offers so be sure to check them out before the sales end today!

Everyone loves a great candle and this is my favorite for winter that is not a Christmas candle. This rich scent is the same as my favorite winter perfume and everyone stops me when I wear it. It’s also fabulous in a candle. I want to also share things other candles because that is such an easy hostess gift.

Think outside the box with a beautiful book on home interiors or entertaining.  Books are a great and unexpected hostess gift. This roll-on perfume is a beautiful fragrance and thoughtful choice. A beautiful bud vase beautiful hostess gift. This blue and white Gratitude tray is also a sweet, useful hostess gift.

A little something for the hostess to relax after a successful party is always a welcome gift!  The Herbivore Botanical Bath Set with Coco Rose Scrub and Coconut Milk bath are amazing.  They are my absolute favorite body body products right now and on my Beauty Gift Guide.  The Line Smoothing HydroMasks are my hands down favorite sheet mask.  They restore glowing and plump skin in minutes.  They’ve been a big it from my Favorites Things Gift Guide.

Custom embroidered napkins from Mia Davis Designs are a thoughtful hostess gift.  I have known the owner Mia Davis for many years and love her gorgeous embroidery.  You’ve seen her cocktail napkins in my Fall Outdoor Tablescape and Gin Trolley posts and her dinner napkins my Gold and Silver Christmas Tablescape.  Be sure and order now for Christmas.  The deadline is December 1!

Fun cocktail glasses are sure to please as a hostess gift or a gift for someone who loves entertaining.  They would be great paired with Gris Gris Cocktail Magic infused simple syrups. These small batch, flavored simple syrups are a great gift and make creating a special holiday cocktail easy.  Having a specialty cocktail ready when your guests arrive is one of my tips for Creating a Warm Welcome Home.

I used the Jalapeño Hex flavor with pomegranate juice and a splash of club soda to create this Christmas Kiss mocktail in champagne coupes. The Habañero Basil flavor topped with Prosecco create bubbles with a kick!  Presentation is everything! This post shares several drink garnish tips.
