Hostess Gifts for New Years Eve Parties…
With Christmas behind us (can you believe it?) we’re looking forward to watching the ball drop in New York City and usher in an era of courage…
As we looking forward to the New Year’s Eve parties coming up this week. The “What can I bring?” isn’t always answered with something specific but it’s always nice to arrive with a little something. A bottle of wine or champagne can work, as can flowers, candles or a game…
Wine is a big hit with my friends. We usually bring a bottle for the party and a bottle for the hostess. Dinner parties can be a little tricky as wine changes it’s taste based on the foods it is paired with. A fun gift is to pair a bottle of wine with a great cheese and give them both. It could work with the party or as a little snack in the days to come.
I love winter flowers… the bright colors seem to offset the dreary winter weather. It’s good to pick flowers already in a container so the hostess doesn’t have to worry about that during the party.
Candles wrapped in a little cellophane and tied with ribbon can be a nice thank you gift. I like to include a little match book or lighter… again so there is no hunting anything down to use the gift. It’s like getting an electronic gift that comes with batteries!
Games! Yes… some people have great traditions of game playing. Games are great for the night and can be used long after the event. My new favorite is all the city versions of Monopoly… anyone can play and enjoy a featured city.
If you have any favorite hostess gift ideas you’d like to share please post them in the comments section.
Happy New Year!
