Top 5 Hosting & Entertaining Gifts
1) Love My State Hand Towels
Showing off the beloved symbols of each state, the Love My State towels feature simple, sophisticated designs. Made of 100% flour sack cotton, absorbent, and durable, these large towels are meant to be used and enjoyed.
2) Ceramic Self-Watering Herb Pot
This self-watering herb pot cultivates herbs almost all by itself. Fill it up every two to three weeks, and a plant will automatically absorb just what it needs through the planter’s unglazed ceramic water reservoir. It’s a great-looking and low-maintenance way to try your hand at gardening.
3) Outlet Wax Warmer
Freshen up smaller rooms with this outlet-based, fragrant wax melts that make clean up a cinch. It infuses spaces with an all-natural fragrance and doubles as a nightlight. Plus, its no-scrape, silicone melting dish makes it easy to pop out the wax after it hardens—no scraping needed.
4) Floating Flower Pin Vase
This floating flower vase creates the illusion of blossoms blooming straight up from the ground. The magic comes from brass pins in an acrylic tray that sits in the shallow ceramic vessel. Place a stem on a pin (the wider the better, like gerbera daisies—but not woody stems, like roses) and the flower will take in as much water as it needs—and stand tall in a striking display.
