10 Inexpensive and Unique Gift Ideas for the Modern Hostess Under $20
Check out this list of unique, inexpensive hostess gift ideas that won’t break the bank. Perfect for anyone with a sense of style and fun!
As much as I love entertaining, there’s something so relaxing about allowing other people to host for a change!
And since I myself have experienced the stress that is organizing game night for the entire family (cue the crying over cupcakes references here), I’m extra thankful when someone returns the favor with an invite.
Since we typically resort to liquor-based gifts as a good fallback, I thought it was time to start thinking a bit more out of the box this holiday season.
Of course, there’s nothing wrong with a great wine or the occasional bottle of absinthe (I kid.. I kid!), but sometimes it’s nice to walk in with something a bit more unexpected and thoughtful.
Thus, this week, I spent a good bit of time looking for relatively inexpensive and unique gift ideas for the modern hostess for under $20!
Also, for your favorite lady in life, may it be your mom, aunt, or sister, check these unique gifts idea for women.
Overall, I’m pretty excited about bringing some of these along to the next party I go to — rosé gummy bears, anyone?
