Summer is in full swing, and we are entertaining again. It's time to shore up the gift closet. If you are invited for drinks, dinner, or the weekend, you simply must bring something to show your gratitude. I have some ideas for you. These luxe options begin at $16 but look so much more. Any one of them will get you invited back.
Gingham Lacquer Tray
Gingham never goes out of style, and the entertainer just can't have too many trays. These are on sale
Marble & Brass Dip Bowls
Here's the best little under $20 gift. They are available in five fab colors. Each one is a luxe look. Fill it up with some mixed nuts for a special touch.
Wine Caddy
A good bottle of wine is always a nice idea. Presenting it in a chic woven caddy makes it a gift to remember, long after the wine is gone.
Wine Soap Set
Your host can now indulge in a splash of bubbly, even if they aren't entertaining. These all natural vegan soaps have been crafted with notes from wine varieties such as citrus for "chardonnay" and berries, plums, and apples for "pinot noir." You are really giving the gift of Happy Hour for every day.
Turkish Towels
One of my favorite things. I own two grey towels. They are so cozy and soft. A perfect gift for those who have a pool, love to picnic, or sit by a fire pit. The price is right!
Hello Melamine Plate Set of Six
Say thank you and hello to the outdoor entertainer with this shatterproof set. It includes sayings Hello Gorgeous, Hello Sunshine and Hello Beautiful.
Just darling for a girls night gift.
Real Dill Bloody Mary Gift Set
If you are invited to brunch or a weekend at the lake, spice things up with this all natural Bloody Mary Set. It's been made in Colorado using fresh cucumber water, organic tomato paste, and zesty horseradish and habanero. The spicy jar of pickles add the garnish. Fun!
Joanna Buchanan Bee Straws
The perfect solution for wasteful paper straws. Not to mention, they will be the only pests invited to the party. Cocktail party chic!
I couldn't resist these doggone good sauces! Bring this set to your next BBQ. They will level up the flavors of everything! They ship free from...
Frantoio Muraglia Intense Extra Virgin Olive Oil
This bottle literally stopped me in my tracks when I came upon it at Bloomingdale's. It's award winning and produced in Northern Apulia from Coratina olives. Also available in rose gold. It makes a stunning gift for any cook.
Now who couldn't use this? I don't have one. This comes complete with a slicer. Under $25
Voted by Vogue as one of the best stationery stores ever. I agree. Their paper goods are clever, chic, and collectable. I love their notepad sets. They run the range from cheeky, sweet, or monogrammed. P.S. you'll love their modern notecards for yourself.
Truman Capote's Breakfast At Tiffany's
If you are going to be an overnight guest, this iconic story book is so appropriate and clever. It's done in full grain leather and personalized for your lucky host or hostess in gold. If you want it unpersonalized, you can order from Saks.
Needlepoint Pillow
Here's a pillow with a point! For the person who knows how to pick their battles. Cleverly chic, hand embroidered and backed in velvet, Fun!
Candle Discovery Trio
So I have gifted myself with this set, and absolutely loved the scents. You select three fragrances from many choices. These small candles are terrific for travel, and come with really good matches. It's a wonderful gift for when you need just a little something. Under $20.
