Top 5 Hosting & Entertaining Gifts
1) Handcrafted Caramel Box
Made in the USA: Boston, Massachusetts Features nine flavors: Dark roasted mocha, ginger fusion, rosemary truffle sea salt, single malt scotch, black lava sea salt, tapped maple, cape cod sea salt, classic vanilla, and deep chocolate Great for gatherings, tasting parties, or as a gift Biodegradable packaging
2) Floating Flower Pin Vase
This floating flower vase creates the illusion of blossoms blooming straight up from the ground. The magic comes from brass pins in an acrylic tray that sits in the shallow ceramic vessel. Place a stem on a pin (the wider the better, like gerbera daisies—but not woody stems, like roses) and the flower will take in as much water as it needs—and stand tall in a striking display.
3) Indian Tea & Decorative Tin Gift Box
Vahdam Teas: Indian Tea & Decorative Tin Gift Box - Assorted Chai Tea Blends (3 Tins)
4) Stainless Steel Wine Chiller
Pop a chilled bottle into this stainless steel wine chiller—like rosé, champagne, or even sparkling water—to keep it at a perfectly cool temperature for hours. No trips to the fridge or cooler needed, thanks to double-walled, vacuum-insulated stainless steel that also eliminates drippy condensation. Makes a great wedding or shower gift. Cheers to that.
5) Personalized Vintage Silver Spoon Marker
Vintage spoons are handcrafted into sweet and meaningful markers that make the perfect addition to a gift or a garden. Customize a spoon with a hand-stamped message, name, or date (up to 15 characters) to truly make for a one-of-a-kind finishing touch.
