Buh bye Halloween and October! It’s officially holiday season. That means hosting events and attending others. It’s always nice to bring a little something for those hosting. I understand that with all the gifts and travel money can be tight though. Here are 20 hostess gift ideas for the holidays under $25, with most available on Amazon:
Gift Ideas
- Scented Candles: A holiday-themed scented candle is always a popular choice. This pineapple evergreen one sounds like a strange combination, but I can vouch for this scent and it is amazing year round. Better yet, include these rainbow matches, too.
- Sparkling Wine Bottle Stopper: Look for a decorative or personalized one. Better yet, this sparking wine bottle stopper works so well. That way if you love sparkling wine like I do, you can indulge with a glass night after night without it going flat.
- Festive Cocktail Napkins: Perfect for holiday gatherings. These butterfly ones are beautiful and moody.
- Holiday-Themed Tea Towels: These add a touch of cheer to the kitchen. The linked ones above would work from Thanksgiving through Valentine’s. These bird themed towels are more colorful and whimsical.
- Gourmet Hot Chocolate Mix: Ideal for cozy winter nights. Doesn’t that cherry chocolate flavor sound divine?!
- Holiday Centerpiece: A small bouquet in a festive vase is lovely. If you are wanting something longer lasting these faux presents are darling.
- Holiday Mugs: Tea, coffee, or egg nog, this mug is darling no matter what you drink.
- Herb Garden Kit: A low-maintenance, trendy gift.
- Cheese Board or Serving Tray: Something elegant for entertaining. Depending on the hostess’s tastes, try an acrylic one, marbled one, or this set of 7 wooden ones.
- Festive Table Runner: To brighten up the kitchen or dining room. I love this pretty Nutcracker one.
- Decorative Coasters: Choose holiday-themed designs or a classic one like black marble.
- Gourmet Chocolate or Truffles: A sweet treat for the host. These look delicious!
- Spices or Seasonings Set: A selection of gourmet seasonings is a wonderful idea the hostess can enjoy trying out.
- Handmade Soap Set: Luxurious soaps in holiday scents.
- Holiday Recipe Book: Filled with delicious seasonal recipes from the Pioneer Woman or how about this Home Alone themed one?
- Stovetop Simmer Kit: Your hostess can have her entire home smelling amazing with a festive stovetop potpourri kit.
- Wine Markers: You could gift a set of charms to identify glasses or try these cute markers to write on wine glasses instead.
- Gourmet Tea or Coffee: A bag of specialty coffee or tea depending on what your hostess family prefers to drink. Harney & Sons makes amazing tea if you need a quality brand.
- Holiday-Themed Serving Spoons: Useful and decorative.
- Decorative Wreath: A small, decorative wreath for their home is perfect. This works year-round for multiple holidays!
Any of these hostess gift ideas under $25 will be a definite hit. Remember to personalize your gift to match the host’s tastes and preferences. Additionally, consider the presentation – a nicely wrapped or packaged gift can make a big difference. You can find many of these items on Amazon and have them delivered directly to your host’s door.
