What makes good hostess gifts




















This trio of simple, modern trays made of aluminum, wood and plastic are super versatile — use them as jewelry organizers, entryway catchalls, or serving dishes. Better than your basic tea bags, these flower, heart, or square-shaped loose leaf teas can be dropped straight in a mug of hot water without an infuser or strainer.

Arrive at her door with all the accruements — cheese, crackers, dried fruit, and so on — for a picture-worthy charcuterie board.

An added bonus: This plant also purifies the air. This perfectly packaged set of four butter or jam spreaders is basically made for the hostess with a sense of humor that's just as strong as her love of biscuits or muffins, for that matter.

More trendy than a standard bouquet, freshen up her space by filling these two small planters with succulents, cacti, or herbs.

And if you're concerned about her plant parenting skills, then stick with artificial ones. Product Reviews. Home Ideas. United States. Type keyword s to search.

Read our full review of the KitchenIQ knife sharpener! Promising review: "Wow, this little gadget is pretty amazing! I have some old expensive non-serrated knives that are supposed to never need sharpening but unfortunately, lost their sharp edge long ago.

I saw this gadget and decided to try it. I set the bottom of this gadget on the edge of the counter and ran one of the knives through the side labeled 'Coarse' about 10 times, then ran it through the side labeled 'Fine' another times. The knife was transformed back to its former high-dollar cutlery glory. I could hardly believe how effectively it had sharpened the knife, which I had been ready to throw away a week before.

I've been happily sharpening all our knives and trying to add up in my head how much money I've saved by NOT having to buy another set of expensive knives. Great score! Promising review: "This is probably the prettiest cookbook I have ever gotten.

It has everything from appetizers, brunch, entrees, and desserts. The pictures are beautiful. My husband loves to cook and is using it. It even won him over. I highly recommend this cookbook.

They come in three NICE clear snap-open boxes which are then sealed in cellophane.

Very impressed for the price! Promising Review: "I have been a wanna-be' whiskey connoisseur and wanted to add an extra little splash of class to my living room. This set was found as serendipity and it turns to be a perfect choice.

The decanter is made with a great level of classical sophistication and well-assured materials. The glass was like shining, and even more shining with whiskey inside.
